  1. 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
  2. Thanks for the help peoples! I'll speak to building inspector see what he says.
  3. 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
  4. Sounds unusually straight forward
  5. 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
  6. 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.
  7. 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
  8. Fiskars x27. Never thought I'd say this but it really is pretty good. Dead light and seems to blow things apart very well
  9. 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
  10. Can everyone stop prodding g the troll. This was a nice thread a while back
  11. Pretty decent pile o chip
  12. Looks good. Just after a croll or similar and I'll be making one of these also. You make your foot loop as well or just buy one?
  13. Working now. Perhaps just bad website last night or something.
  14. Fyi Link doesnt work for me
  15. Dont think that's a problem running the bar clamps set it a bit. Obvs keep an eye in the cut that the saws weight isn't bending down the way. Also make sure yer bar is supported well when you do the bar clamps up as you can sort of force a bend onto the bar which accentuates as the change the depth gauges.
  16. https://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/news/politics/my-precious-agreement-gollum-actor-13709320?fbclid=IwAR2oWmKuc8-KDtyOWRwKWHCYCR-WhCoU2zI8uqBSbTWwvLqEVFHJGCzpZ48
  17. This is the finish of granberg lo pro. Its def quite fast atleast.
  18. No self adjusting buckles?
  19. Excellent! Any idea what was wrong with it?
  20. Aye, shavey on hear very good for parts. And the 7900 is banging saw and good price. Personally wouldnt worry about parts availability at all
  21. @Mark Bolam hows the koala doing? Half thinking of a new harness. Not shelling out 400quid for TM though
  22. I'd say the nut isn't on far enough but the newer type clutch wont need the cover and nut on. That nut doesnt hold the clutch on just the washer cover I think. I'd try it without nut or clutch cover personally. But cant promise you this is correct! Def keep an eye on it!
  23. I reckons your good with the nut and washer. The anticlockwise thread will keep it on as with most outboard clutches. When I have had a clutch off I try and remember to engage the chain brake soon after with the chain going a bit to nip it up right good.
  24. I think with a sharp chain you can get away with it. I run a 9t .325 18'' on my 361 and its mint but you def notice as soon as it's a little dull, bogs down. Just bought a 8t for the 026 so will report back also
  25. PM sent
