  1. Nice vid. My kids are gutted they didn't see the stem come down!
  2. Or decent meteor one is 80sqyids on ebays.... Worth confirming it is a compression issue rather than carb. Got a tach? Think your looking at max rpm 13k ish
  3. Worth popping the cat out of these Steve and richening the h. From memory it's pretty easy to pop it out the exhaust. Ace little saws
  4. http:// https://www.honeybros.com/Item/Lug-All_4000-20_Winch Proper one is 300sheets https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.co.uk%2Fulk%2Fitm%2F122618790691 Chinese is 28squid Def get 4t not 2t
  5. The really good ones are lugall i believe. I have had a 2 ton and 4 ton cheap Chinese ratchet winch for about 8 years. It was 25quid and is pretty bent now but still works. The 4 ton one is the one only issue is cable length isn't amazing The proper lugall are smoother and have better leverage and cable length but are very pricey. Personally wouldn't trust chinese one with my life but have shifted some huge barrels or oak etc with one. One lives in the pickup full time as very handy item to have.
  6. Few more pics of the honey fungus/scalycap
  7. Know one actually knows the price yet. How'd you mean?
  8. Right with you. Sounds minging. Have bent a few chains like that but like you say tool attachment points never broke yet...
  9. Yes that is what I thought also....you are warning against clipping saws onto you side d's or something?
  10. I was under the impression that tool attachment points on a harness were tear away for this reason?
  11. Just Google it it's the first or second website http:// https://www.diyspareparts.com/parts/stihl/diagrams/ms440-n/
  12. Def fix it onto your tool attachment then to caritool for short attachment
  13. Excellent. Good timing scene. Enjoyed watching those sticks scattering the piles of sticks below. Pretty good days graft I'd say
  14. Look at an exploded carb diagram for this saw. Check you put back together ok. Gaskets in the right order etc. H and l screw 1 full turn out from fully in.
  15. Where is Mr Humphries when you need him? My first was honey fungus also....mmmm
  16. Here is that stump puffball. It appears to be growing right on the bark of the sycamore....which is def alive
  17. Jotul 602 would be spot on or even rarer 600. Small, quick to heat up and with a reasonable length of log taken. And with a hotplate http:// https://goo.gl/images/sGGaCv
  18. What the sh1t! That sounds nasty matty. Appreciate the heads up! Easy not to think of these things, especially when they are sold in arb shops.....you on a large caritool matty?
  19. Sure ive obvs never used one. They might be fine soon as your used to them? Might out wiegh the annoying snap ones snagging?
  20. Does the bigger size catch on stuff joe? The smaller ones seem to a fair bit fair me and I was worried a bigger would be worse?
