Hi, its a mature sequoia with a diameter of 1.27-1.37m from memory. Ive ash coming up to but only small diameter, approx. 6" but straight, approx. 12ft lengths if this helps. I could do with a source to sell all wood to really, even if its fire wood? what do you think?

hi does anyone know of a wood merchant who will buy main stem cord as your cutting? Would they be able to take away from sites and pay me for the wood? All the best
-
According to the guys who service my transporter van, they aren't so good with the fuel filters blocking and engines could be problematic...
-
Thanks Mark, does that make the wood brittle? Its approx 35 ft heigh, multi stem leaders from about 5ft. The base at 5ft is approx .75cm to .90cm

thanks again, will do

hi Im not too sure if this is the right place for this question but has anyone seen this on ash trunks before? perfectly normal or something sinister? Sorry I have no pics at the moment but the trees on soggy ground, there is a spring surfacing in this garden, in sunny suburban Birmingham. thanks:001_smile:

permission to come aboard the we chipper club. Sirs just bought my first chipper, cs100 18hp with lecky start. Fab. Ive read much info about this machine and went to see those nice folk at global in Birmingham and after a demo to see if I could really role with it, I parted with my hard earned... Its been one of the best purchases ive made to date. Thanks to everyone whos wrote about this and other little chippers. You have all helped newby a great deal. Thanks again

Hi chaps, I have a 201 in std form, nice and strong. My mate runs a 200 and his is much more instant where as you have to spin mine up a bit to get it past the initial slow uptake. Im just getting used to it but my question is how can I make mine a little more instant on power like a 200 without going out to buy a 200? "How do I tune it up?" all the best

Hi, a ms290 was my first saw. Guys at UPM who cut all day long suggested it for me as I wanted an occasional use saw with guts. The sort of saw which starts when you want it and has some balance on a 16, without being a handful to use for an hour or 2//3rds of a day.I thought about selling that but Its been great with no probs and I keep this on the van just incase I get one stuck... I use mine for rough jobs, hedges and horrible stuff. Solid and strong. However, if you want something to use all day, most days then go for a ms260/261 if you can. Lighter and the 260 can be all the saw you could want for 75% of the time. The 261 is a flick able non too heavy saw on a 16" too. hope that helps, good luck

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....

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?

thanks v much for the advice chaps

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
