  1. Nothing that exciting for me, but splashed out and got my boy a new pickup. Nice old hilux. Already smashed both wing mirrors off
  2. Yes pita to sharpen but worth it. Stihl 10" chains are a tenner from l and s
  3. Pees me off the amount of tedious tarring with the same brush thing that goes on often on arbtalk. Yes dickheads that steal stuff is awful and needs addressing. However definitely not all gypsies are thieves, in my experience many are honest and I trust their word more than others. Dont give a monkeys if people decide to get unprofessionals in to top their Connies
  4. Cant remember how wide you said it is but cuts real nice. You could defs make to with a 66 on a big bar should you want to. Obvs good excuse to buy an 88 though.
  5. You can buy them with carb adjust on. Replaced a few on ms170s a while back and made sure I had the ones with h and l jets. Prolly got a stash somewhere if you want me to post you one?
  6. If you leave your harness on when on the ground it doesnt count anyways
  7. I suspect it's a more rounded long term view of his attitude and approach. Many people including me swear on here from time to time, some people however just seem to go out of their way to wind people up and generally trash literally every thread they're involved in. Really brings the forum down imo. I tried just blocking posts from some users but doesnt seem to work on the app. Have got used to just swiping past them, but tbh would rather I didnt have to. I guess there will always be debate over barring people, but i reckons this is a good thing and forum will be better off for it. Thank God matlock has self censored himself off somewhere else.
  8. I often seen to clip myself onto branches with mine. Really annoying, but also real handy. Wire gate removed? Who does this and do they rain pulleys down frequently?
  9. Does seem pretty slow, I used a non feed lumag recently and it seemed to chip much faster than that.
  10. Aye the 361 only gets hot if your logging stuff really. And then it's too hot without gloves. Still good though.
  11. Man that's rough. Often wondered with is Bobby d covers etc whether he knows it's funny or is serious? Hard to tell
  12. Pleased you got sorted! Satisfying
  13. Had lush sunny Friday dealing with 5 windblown a steep bank. Everything to logged up. Then today setup a 50m zip line for some pals in time for Christmas. Good fun
  14. Thanks for the help peoples! I'll speak to building inspector see what he says.
  15. Aye well I think I have the American shorts on them by the looks of it. Had another few days gaffing out every 10mins. Will be selling them, cant be bothered to change technique, never had any bother on the kleins, just a bit achy after days and days stood on them. Will look out for some posh pads for them I guess. Ally geckos about a year old £150 if anyone wants them? Thanks for all the tips
  16. Never used the battery ones buy the difference on the stihl 043 chain to cut speed is very significant. Have swapped a few little saws onto this and they become miles faster in the cut
  17. Yes please send details. I can atleast have a chat with him about it. It'll be for 2 or 3 a framed and some decent beams above door openings etc.
  18. Dunno about the dmm but pretty sure I managed to wedge a karitool between the webbing on the stitched on belt. Think there is the odd bit not stitched that you can work it into
  19. Fiskars x27. Never thought I'd say this but it really is pretty good. Dead light and seems to blow things apart very well
  20. Doing an extension. Would like to use some larch or oak as structural timbers. Anyone know the craic with stuff I have milled or using a small local saw mill? The builder was a bit unsure, I'm pretty sure it's possible just hoped someone could point me in the right direction? Ta
  21. Can everyone stop prodding g the troll. This was a nice thread a while back
