    Feels like a 3 way caritool might be so irritating it's not worth bothering with?
  2. billpierce
    Excellent
  3. billpierce
    No no I've read the forums on it

    An excellent saw. What's the site?

    I was worried about size of larger ones catching on stuff. My 2nd small one broke today with nothing on it so must have caught. Dmm then

    Have gone through 2 t shirts and "waterproof" jackets in the rain all day today I am seriously considering getting something posher. No snags or rips? Cuffs ok?
  7. billpierce
    Does it not need adjusting as the stem gets wider? Or get snagged ?
  8. billpierce
    Yes but the more your hourly rate is

    Tell me how insanely cheap the echo 2510 will be?
  10. billpierce
    I can't tell if your being really sarcastic
  11. billpierce
    Tell me about the deals now so I can prepare myself psychologically?

    Broke another one, have a black diamond on which is still working but the little bit that holds it in place is broke so it slops around a bit. Those dmm ones good? Worth 25quid? Anyone got anything better? The pink ones skyland sell are pretty fit

    Honestly I don't look at stitching often....i really should though. I do krabs when the stop clicking shut properly. Tend to notice this quickly. Check rope and friction cord often nearly daily

    Don't rush me Mark I've only just got the hang of a HC after 10 years of prussocking. And I still have to check the knut is correct on my phone......god knows how much slower srt would be for me to learn by myself via the internet The idea of bombing a line pretty much anywhere then effortlessly ascending without breaking a sweat sounds attractive though

    Can't quite imagine that setup. Timber hitch with the right length dead eye works for me. Can get it nice and snug easy peasy if negative rigging a stem

    This true. However for a rustic bar and fireplace a split or two or crack may be acceptable? 064 will be fine on a 36 lo pro. Not the fastest but fine id say....

    Not tried it but it is jaso FD so should be ok....be interested to find out if anyone else has had this. On rye oil 2 stroke at the minute

    Swings and round abouts I guess just done syc no.2, first shot

    Just been stubbornly throwing for 45mins at a big sycamore that wanted deadwooding. There was a lovely crotch which meant I would have had access to everything without moving anchor. After a lot of swearing I settled on a lesser spot......thankfully customer was out.

    Yes missed your huge positivity!
  21. billpierce
    Sounds like the dream.

    Do you use aspen full time?

    Hopefully my 357 crank bearings will explode soon and I can send it down to him
  24. billpierce
    357 is a legendary saw. Check whether it's been rebuilt with oem or Chinese. Slightly heavier than 026 but punchier. If you set up and the weight is in the cut you'll not notice. I bought one 10years ago from my old boss who had used it well and it's still going strong!

    Sent email, probably end up in yer spam. Based nr allendale, Northumberland. Ta
