Where abouts are you? Spiney oak is great to make still out of. It's quite driftwoody. Sadly also excellent firewood Made this dead simple bench from Spiney oak Sent from my SM-G390F using Arbtalk mobile app

One is a carving saw so unlikely to be chain jam. Sent from my SM-G390F using Arbtalk mobile app

It s the plastic directly opposite the clutch. Def melted plastic blisters not chip. Hasn't happen to my 200 but seen it on a few others Sent from my SM-G390F using Arbtalk mobile app

That's some good suggestions and should get the forum going again. How come you didn't suggest an immigration one? Sent from my SM-G390F using Arbtalk mobile app

Seen a few of these melted around the brake. Seems common. What's the cause? Don't think it's just running it with brake on Sent from my SM-G390F using Arbtalk mobile app

Yeah they aren't being shy with those chogs Sent from my SM-G390F using Arbtalk mobile app

Only ask cos there is one for 70quid for sale! Thanks will think on this. Also been offered a 150 near me used which will be cheap enough. Would like to have a shot on one really but not seen any for sale near me. Sent from my SM-G390F using Arbtalk mobile app

Not tried either of those configurations and not used the sequioa only the Navajo which is horrendously uncomfortable. So far so good. I will report back after a few more weeks of using it Sent from my SM-G390F using Arbtalk mobile app

This one ate a screw from butterfly. Piston was shot but cylinder looks ok. And is smooth. Sent from my SM-G390F using Arbtalk mobile app

Yes have a spare cylinder that should be usable if you got a piston. Link to new oem cylinder kit for 55 quid. https://www.lsengineers.co.uk/genuine-cylinder-piston-assy-for-stihl-ms170.html Good luck. You will need some gasket sealent Sent from my SM-G390F using Arbtalk mobile app

What caused the piston to get like that? No 2 stroke oil? Check the butterflies on the carb. Looks to me like some metal has got I to cylinder and crunched piston. Maybe the screw on carb butterfly. Give me 2 mins I'll check if I have a usable 170 cylinder. Chinese ones are wick. Meteor are good. These saws are only 170 quid new so I def wouldn't buy a new oem cylinder Sent from my SM-G390F using Arbtalk mobile app

Does The cs2600tes compare to 2511 or totally different kettle if fish?. Can't stretch to a new 2511 just yet. But Interesting to hear your reckon it's close to the 360tes. ( which I live and seems to come out to play more than the 200 these days) Sent from my SM-G390F using Arbtalk mobile app

I meant sorry I couldn't help before not could! Hope you get sorted or something works out Sent from my SM-G390F using Arbtalk mobile app

Yeah get one you mean. Can't explain/ don't understand the physics. Obvs less stress if sling round a nice round object like a tree. Hopefully someone can explain or maybe we're just being thick Sent from my SM-G390F using Arbtalk mobile app
-
Yeah pretty quite just now on here. Soz could help Sent from my SM-G390F using Arbtalk mobile app

I get what you mean. If you were lifting a weight with a metal eye with the sling doubled going through the eye, I understand that the sling is doubled and each length is under less stress but at the point that it folds around the eye must be under most strain. I.e where it is single. That what your on about? Sent from my SM-G390F using Arbtalk mobile app

Good ballsy stunt fell. Well Done! Sent from my SM-G390F using Arbtalk mobile app

Just been given a harness to try. So singing rock. It only has one big ring on bridge. My dragonfly has 2. Am I best clipping a 2nd crab onto the same big ring or just straight onto bridge? Or does it not matter? Sent from my SM-G390F using Arbtalk mobile app

Hot shizzle! Everyone's at it! Here is another left handed tool in disguise. I just tried using it with my right hand and I can't get to grips with it Sent from my SM-G390F using Arbtalk mobile app
