  1. As above . A piece of piss to convert , mine was any way . Just one blob of weld on the rotatey handle and jobs a goodun .
  2. What is his area ? Could not find any reference in the post but good point .
  3. I see the beginnings of die back in the crown .. As you say its a right old mess with included pipe work ! I would not say its an immediate hazard but not overly pretty . Take it down and start again . At a guess I would say its highways tree .
  4. Understood . ๐Ÿ‘

    I thought Stihl had a kind of combi file thing that did both together . I may be mistaken .
  6. I understand you wanting to get something running but if you need a saw get soething that is not rare as rocking horse poo ....
  7. FFS he is going along with it ! Give the lad a break ...The laughing icon at the end of his post ?
  8. Yea I thought that as well . He don't stand a chance with these buggers !

    Jokes???

    Im gonna try some of those snake and butterfly ones !
  11. Its why birch rots relatively quickly . The bark is water proof so won't let the moisture escape . Best to split it early or de bark it .
  12. Don't discount " soft wood " most of it burns hotter than hard wood if a little quicker . Larch and leylandii are two of my favorites .
  13. There is the " invisible hand " function on a Peugeot Rifter . but a button under the dash to switch it off . It defaults to on every time you switch off though . Before I found the switch of button I was driving over the Eastliegh air port roundabout flyover when they first were doing the " smart " motorway shit . There was so much overbanding , blacked out lane markings , and new temporary lane makings it had a complete hissy fit .
  14. Granary bread , Crunchy peanut butter and sliced beef steak tomato sarnie .
  15. Rumble of thunder as I type ..
  16. This all day long .
  17. The only time a fixing is subject to the direction of rotation is if it is on the axis of rotation . Anything out board of this won't matter if its RH or LH thread ( as you say ! ) Same as the clutch nut on your chainsaw .
  18. The only problem with Crispi is they are " Just Stop Oil " colored ๐Ÿ™‚

  20. I love spuds . ๐Ÿ™‚
  21. It actually might ๐Ÿ‘
  22. Try MJO Forestry . Mark Oden . ( Chichester area )
  23. Lets make it simple . A man with a red flag walking in front of the car ๐Ÿ™‚
  24. 3 chains on a dozen trees ! That was an expensive job . Were you cutting " underground " ๐Ÿ™‚
