    i would have probably told him to stick it at the time of confrontation, but have learned its better to sleep on it, then make a decision. how desperate are you to have the wood? If you may get some more out of it at a good price then let it slide this time maybe? He could be worried about getting stung.

    Saw Purchase:)

    mad matty replied to Kay 9's topic in Chainsaws

    run both saws, 346xp, ms261. the stihl is reliable so far, both good blocking down saws, good underwood cutting saws, but have had to do a couple of things to the husky and it seems to shake itself to bits???

    have a t-shirt that state,s "could you just starts at £15" got it made due to people alwalys wanting a freebie, like a guy who wanted us to reduce a 40ft beech for nothing because we were trimming his hedge!!!. His quip when i said no was thats no way to run a business.
