    no I have not ....oh I did have one a long time ago but it was not like these modern ones . Had Windsor and canon as well .

    The main thing is the series of cuts blow the hinge on the side you want thee wood to collapse slightly making the tree pivot around before it tips to the deck .

    I like the Sugihara light weight pro bars . Very hard . Don't need dressing so often .

    I tried a " soft dutch man " on a tree that it would not matter were it went . It kinda worked . It made it swing around a few degrees ( supposedly 180 degrees ) before it fell to miss an imaginary target .

    salt won't make them rot down any quicker . just stops thing growing . I killed a patch of nettles that grew up round a style that I made . Sprinkled dish washer salt for 2 seasons then they never came back .

    The stored energy in a big flywheel is let out in the form of inertia . Takes a bit of time to spin up but keeps spinning even when the power is off . Look at your brush cutter . Spins up quick and stops quick with line . Spins up slower until full chat and takes much longer to stop with a metal blade on .

    And it can handle load better, low rakers in other words Yea I understand torque . 200 hp tractor can pull a house up a hill at 20mph all day long . 200hp sports car can bat along at 180mph al day long . Each can't do what the other can .

    You can lean on the saw a bit more I would think .
  20. Stubby
    I have/had 2 saws with full wrap . 385XP ( stolen years ago ) and a 395XP . I recon I could count on one hand the times i have benefited from them .
  21. Stubby
    And 4 pairs of trousers , at least .

    It was a disk cutter ? stone saw originally ?

    Might stop the thousands of tons of recently felled ash that is currently going for biomass .
