  1. Power to weight ratio surely counts but over all weight is the main factor for me . A Saturn rocket probably has a better power to weight ratio than a map gas torch but ...?
  2. If the collar is loose it is dodgy .
  3. Yea . Got that . I will try and post a pic . . Husqvarna Technical front protection only . Rear leg vents . predominantly greu with some red bits on I think . Will dig them out later .
  4. Please don't get me on snapping the brake on at max revs every step you take . GGRRRR
  5. Equally seen the odd person covered in tickets but apparently clueless .
  6. Id risk being covered in bacon right now ?
  7. Got a small white handled pen knife .
  8. yes in the past I have always thought the same . Stihl slightly slower but more torque Husky slightly faster and clears the chip better . I think that difference is diminishing with the newer saws . The point I was making was that the first saw is 72cc and the second 59cc and you cant expect them to behave the same in a given situation . .
  9. Fry em up in a little garlic butter . If we dont hear from you in a couple of days then be worried about them . ?
  10. The only refresher I have ever had as that little fizzy sweet you used to get ? . My tickets got stolen along with my wallet about 20 year ago . No one ever asked to see one then or now !
  11. What size are you ? I have a pair of Husqvarna Technical Front protection with zips in the back of the legs and bum that have never been worn . They have been kicking around here since I retired . Think they were around £ 180 new . I was a 32" waist at the time and needed a belt but now I am a 34" and the same strides stay up without the belt ! Make me an offer if you want . I wont ever use them .
  12. Typical lack of maintenance . Went to process some logs (for myself for this coming winter ) and my hydraulic splitter would not start . Ended up just cutting the small stuff and got a truck full so not a wast of time . Who puts stuff away , running fine only to find it wont perform next time you want it ? I should know better ! ?
  13. They make em in Sweden ! Just buy another ?
  14. Crucially the bigger Stihl has more torque than the smaller Husqvarna . The guy in the vid uses the bigger Stihl first and then tries to make the smaller Husqvarna work the same by leaning on it this makes it bog slightely a couple of times .
  15. That rat would make excellent Kindling !
  16. With 76.5cc I would expect it to have more than just " the edge " ?
  17. Oh go on Khriss , give it some ! ?
  18. He says Murcia S.E. Spain in the opening post . No reason to disbelieve him .
  19. I don't know what the actual spec is but I recon it should be at least 125 psi to run if not more . !40-150 probably .
