  4. OK thanks, I thought the worst. I have had a 290 from the word go and its not missed a beat or presented any probs....
  5. Hi, my lovely saw, squealed when I fired it up after its monthly clean and sharpen up, oh dear I thought but then no further probs. A short while later I thought I had better check the needles as I forgot to grease, so in I went and to my horror they fell apart in my fingers. My mate had one of the originals and had so many problems with his as his needle bearing lasted approx 4 hours. I did ask when I bought this a year and a half ago if still had sorted this out and I was assured that it had been. I just wondered if anyone else suffered this problem?
  6. thanks v much for the advice chaps

    A New Shed

    Try Adam at farm and forestry. He builds sheds/offices which are secure solid waterproof and heavy duty enough to outlast us all. I use mine for an office in my back garden. It looks great too. Will send pics if you want. All the best Nathan

  13. Hi chaps, what would you go for if you worked on small stuff, domestic garden scrub, leylandii and fruit tree branches. I am fed up with smashing it up in the trailer with my bigger saw to mulch it down. My budget isnt big £2-3k. CS-100 or a 125 timberwolf. I van the trailer around and dont have a 4x4 or similar as yet. Thanks v much Nathan

  18. Dear all, I haven't been going long as I started off as a gardener and then wanted a proffesion, so went into tree surgery and soon realised that I was making a loss giving away all the wood I was felling. I have a friendly farmer helping me with storage, the bags are sitting outside under blue tarps, but I can't keep that lot there and not make anything! I have tried locally by advertising, everyone in south birmingham wants wood (being in a smokeless zone) but they dont want to pay for it! Can anyone give me a starting point as what to do with it as I keep adding to it as the jobs come in,or indeed want to buy this lot? Its currently near Bentley, Atherstone Warks.
  19. hi check out the LANTRA site and look for Projects and then RDPE forsetry skills. This page should help. Also as your in Wales, if your a resident there, check the Welsh forestry commision. Good luck

    Husky T435

    I bought one early this year and ran it on aspen. It bogged when revved all the time. It bogged when I was up a blown willow, scary... Anyway I changed the fuel to stihl red mix, still the same happened and changed again to the newer stihl green mix and now I have a mega responsive strong lightweight saw. I run a 12" bar. Brill for lightweight stuff now but i am waiting for the 540t. All the best Nathan
