  1. i like the look of the 115 from on old tech, proven saw view
  2. check you sprocket is ok if your drive links are knackered. how long have you had the bar? how many chains it been through? bars should take a while before they are worn out
  3. makita 4301 is about £270 and 5121 (50cc) anout £350 off ebay. but i can reccomend shavey more!
  4. dolly 420 or makita 4301 is a good and light and punches above its cc! shavey on here can sort you out with one (see other threads). not used an echo yet!
  5. yeah nice one, how much does a crane cost for a day? what music id that toots remix? reminds of [ame=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_KzaFxGME9o]this[/ame]
  6. seriously, i have had 3 ms170's 14'' is whack if you bury it, 16'' is a joke, 12" is barely exceptable, but better IMO
  7. i've used multi fuel stoves for years burning just wood, no bother, sometimes i have removed the grate or stuck a but of sheet steel down o nthe grate (depending on design) if just using wood. best thing to do is have a good winter experimenting with it, then you'll know a bit more about it
  8. aarrow make pretty good stoves i think
  9. multifuel stoves are designed to take the heat of coal, if you stick coal in a wood only stove you'll likely warp/crack the cast. generally a grate means ok for coal i think
  10. horrible to think what might have happened if the wrong lever was pulled
  11. i bought an 076 on a 20" bar, that was good in the cut
  12. get a photo sent of you with some large butts jon, january sorted
  13. i went to buy a rayburn from someone how had similar problems, when i looked the flue damp was rusted shut! i think they are still using it!
  14. that ramp is ridiculous. is it definatley real?
  15. yeah just of the military road, not far from matfen. give me a shout when you come to retake you kingdom, i'll arm some rebellious peasants in advance
  16. i get this occaisonally when the wind is blowing in certain directions, and have discovered that opening the front door of the house for 5 mins when lighting eliminates the downdraft until flue is warm. also worth checking the factory spec of the flue diameter reccomendation as a 6 inch ilsulated flue section is infact 5 inch inside diameter etc etc
  17. Mark i went past a sign for Bolam the other day - ancestral home or unclaimed castle?
  18. lol i'll keep messing on with it for a bit before i give up!
