  1. Pick up the saw ( as above ) and hold it in what you think is a level position to cut a stump and the get someone to put a bubble on the bar . You will be surprised how far out you are .
  2. Nope . Why do you take such an interest in my sex life ?
  3. Everyone has to start somewhere . Mechanical sympathy prevents me from starting a saw with the brake on . There wern't any chain brakes when I first picked up a saw so don't use it anyway .
  4. You been peeping obviously .....
  5. I don't pretend to know a lot about this subject but could it be a cultivar , like a fern leaved beech , is there a graft line ?

  10. It is used for hedging so no real need unless you want the separate .
  11. I understand all that you are saying and have heard it time and time again over the years . May be its just me but I can't " soldier on " with a dull semi chisel chain just because it sorta still cuts . It is just me I am sure .,🙂
  12. No way would I think ( nor did I suggest ) you would not keep it razor sharp Dan . I still think its just a dull chain whatever the profile .
  13. The tree behind looks to be a Robinia / false Acacia / Black locust . Is the ivy growing up that ?
  14. People say this about semi chiz but I think a dull chain is a dull chain .
  15. Are you THE Chester ...... The one who played with Frank Zappa and the Mothers of Invention and Phill Collens ? 😀
  16. Just go back to playing the drums bud . More money . 👍

  18. I use either . Whatever is available at my dealer . ( I can't tell them apart )
  19. I remember that one ! There was a " really " inbetween "and " and "showing " I seem to remember .
