  4. I have, really appreciated the lanyard breaking not pulling me with the 200t to the ground. Was a decent size sycamore limb that just nipped the saw in the kerf. Only happened the once mind.
  5. Have you tried andrew? Or miles machinery or l and s have makita parts I think
  6. Probs get away with it if needs must. But knowing my luck it would melt some vital plastics or rattle loose and thread the exhaust bolt hole on the cylinder.
  7. Where's folks getting their reels from? Chains direct are sold out of 75dpx (3/8 0.063 semi) , which is cheapest I've found it.
  8. Alex, I often overload my small isc floating bollard. I use either a dyneema whoopee which will cinch up with just a big dan on until it's nipped right up or 16mm double braid deadeye with a timber hitch - again just setting it all up tight as can be. You get a bit of slop after the first few heavies but certainly not shin to chest level. Like 1ft tops

    MS361

    I replaced my exhaust with a cheapo chinese one. Just because my orm was knackered. Didn't notice a difference tbh, but always loved that saw. Best thing i did was sticking a 9pin sprocket off a 440 on with a 18" .325 bar it cut very well.
  10. Are they stretchy?
  11. My arbortec breatheflex are coming to the end of their life- can't sew them up any more times. Any climbets up for recommending decent stretchy long lasting trousers? The solidurs anygood? Not too happy about them Being 300 quid these days
  12. It's the tea flask left on kitchen top at home that gets me going
  13. You decide how you want to do it and what your up for. Don't feel any pressure to do something you don't think is safe. Saying that refusals to climb will cause friction Expect plenty of folk on here climb with no aerial rescue. Others wouldn't. Personally I do, and on some jobs feel it's safe others not so much and I'll make sure aerial rescue is present. I've worked with plenty of people with tickets I wouldnt trust to even get up a tree and others with non that would rescue you in minutes. I wouldn't ask someone else to climb without aerial rescue or expect them to but wouldn't mind if they wanted to
  14. All my things that run on red seem to be getting blocked filters in this recent cold spell. Genny,tractors,chipper,digger. See through filter is waxy af,when brought inside it liqifies fine. Does anybody add anything to their red? Petrol mix?antigelling agent? Driving me nuts
  15. Whats a semi with mesh?
