Fantastic fire wood when seasoned but----not for open fires as you will need a new carpet after one evening !
-
Not acceptable . Luckily I have not had any of the problems you have had . Strange as I must have had my 560 10 months ? It is a 2011 saw.

I always use a mechanical splitter . The outer grain is helical and the center is strait , nightmare to split by hand but wonderful woopd to burn .
-
Oh no . so sad . Sorry to learn about this . Its his family that will suffer now .

I use DM chainsaws " own " brand . Been using it it for ages , never let me down . Cheaper than Stihl or Husky and has those convenient graduations on the bottle .

One or two 254s on ebay . Spud might help .
-
Yep I have noticed that . Not taken any out but they all look sick in my area including 2 that did not leaf this spring .

Wood can be well seasoned and still be wet . Keep it under covered but allow the air to get to it . Moisture meter is a good idea . I have logs that are 8% moisture that have been in the log basket all summer and the same batch out in the log store that read 25% .

It's a black bird drive through , perhaps ?

If it was in your home you are allowed reasonable force to defend " you and yours " I agree get a solicitor and take advice .

I'm sixty in January , the 20th to be precise . Its my back when I first start and it eases during the day . I get whicked cramp in my thighs and hands now in the evening/ night and my jaw aches from gritting my teeth . Ho hum

If its hoonining down first thing and no chance of it lifting we stop home . If it clears before 10/10.30 we sit tight till then . So its you that's clogging up the work shop at DMs then ! Matt looked a bit under the cosh .

Our £10.000 liability now costs us £1,500 / year . Any one get it cheaper ?
-
Any Husqvarna dealer . Hopefully !

Got a Husky 560 ---- best 60cc saw I have ever had and I have had a few !

Why not hit the middle then ---390 . Its like a slightly bigger 372 with almost the power of the 395 ?
-

Come out of the closet ! you know you want to !

Second that . I have 3120,395 and 390 . The 3120 only comes out if absolutely necessary . Its on a 50" bar so hopefully once a year at the most . The opther two I am happy to pick up any time .

Superb !

I think you keep on learning all the time , so really you continually gain experience . Its all relative . As you say, if you think you can do a good job you probably can so go for it .
