  1. Wicked. I've just got a full petzl kids harness for my 5 year old. Looking forward to using!
  2. Yeah it seems fine so far I'm not in it every single day but so far all good
  3. https://www.teepublic.com/t-shirt/1529692-i-became-an-arborist-and-an-asshole
  4. Does it run ok? My bg55 sucks v slowly and often has a bit air in bulb. Runs fine and fuel lines are fine and starts fine. Been like that a year or so. When I did carb kit on it one of the diaphrams was lacking a hole on the edge to allow the bulb to fill. I punctured a small hole and it fills better now. If a little slower that it should.
  5. Remember that. It's a good one. Did you price to dismantle?
  6. Where's that then ? Reminds me of river dart country park
  7. So does it count as a stunt fell in your book? I reckon no skidder in woods and the reckoned 'redoing that decking would have been easier than a dismantle. Guessing it was his or a mates shack.
  8. Good of you to mention it. Will get an order in.
  9. I love it when people come out after you've just got your anchor in and ask if you want a brew....
  10. Agreed; first fell not stunt. Other two some pretty close houses and trucks close by etc sure counts as a stunt? Generally agree with Mr Blair, true stunt fell is where you ha e quoted for dismantle then just whop it down. But if you do a huge back leaner cut with what sounds like a ms170 with 30" bar with a polyprop tug line and old boy with trad helmet on popping the odd wedge in with a house that's a stunt in my book. http://
  11. Yep cheap enough. You'd prob make 200 from the 020 and 136 easy. Is the 076 36inch bar a duro or sprocket tip?
  12. Yeah terrible video, can understand not getting through.....def a bit of confidence to start the cut
  13. The second 2 fells are pretty close I would say
  14. Probs been on before but new to me. Some appallingly filmed but non the less impressive stunt felling http://
  15. Does the bulb inflate by itself easily of a bit slowly?
  16. They must of had big stickers with clear labelling on the boxes which oddley Happened to be I stock or something
  17. You seem in a good mood. Hope you never fall on hard times and need help from anyone else
  18. Aye you order, wait a week, ring then, get half the order, half of which is wrong, email no reply, ring no answer. Really pleased I saved a few quid on some chai n that don't fit. Saying that I've been through a few on the top handles and after their first sharpen you would know the difference
  19. Update; harness going well.much comfier having fiddled adjusting thigh straps. Will report back when it's knackered.
  20. Next was exhaust mod on a ms150. Couldn't the exhaust I had was different from ones described as last bit was spot welded on and not removable. So boshed a hole in side. Checked with tac and could lean out enough so whipped carb off, drill limiter pin refitted and saw ran like a bag pi55......after a good while of checking everything, varying carb screws etc etc took carb to bits and tha fully found a mass of silty black schizer in carb mesh filter. Back together and runs good now. Tac goes mad as you approach the limiter- occasionally blipping to 17000rpm! But got it tuned nice now. Went to fit new chain from northern arb. And low and behold it's the wrong size. Ffs has taken since 6th Sept to get it to me and now it's here appears to not be narrow kerf or something. Anyway looks much bigger than stihl diddy chain Sent from my SM-G390F using Arbtalk mobile app
