  1. Not after carving bars but their resin insert forestry variety . . have asked Rob at Chainsaw bars but that's a no go. Who's Simon O'Rourke?
  2. Anyone know where to get Tsumura bars from in the UK? I've been after them for ages . .
  3. DED:cussing: ADB:thumbup:
  4. If that's DED then you should be seeing a lot of symptomatic saplings too (in the same vicinity) and they are much easier to diagnose. Any symptoms of rapid necrosis on non-shaded, and otherwise healthy growth is a good give away.
  5. Hi Rob, I'm currently running an MS241 on 3/8"P with a 14" Sugi Pro light bar but am keen to start running .325" chain on a 13" or 14" bar. Is such a Sugihara Pro light bar available as I can't see one on your site? Cheers
  6. and this beast was in Baden-Württemberg :thumbup:
  7. Not mine but saw this pimped Volvo BM in Sweden last year . . .
  8. I used to have a Ford Fiesta although it wasn't paid for by logs . . .
  9. Ah I see - sorry misunderstood you. I suppose they don't necessarily market them thinking folks will buy all the range. Eg if you're only going to buy one top handle then a 193 would cover that base albeit not excell where the 150 or 200/1 do. If you have the 200/1 and a 150 then yes I don't see the point.
  10. You don't see the point in a 241???????? You've obviously never used one!! Agree re the rest of them but bar the 261 they're all non-pro.
  11. There is no difference in susceptibility between mature and young trees. Young trees with little or no tolerance just succumb quicker whilst mature trees can struggle on for longer. Big mature trees with no tolerance will succumb very quickly 2-5 years.
  12. Long-term you need to find another silvicultural strategy - ash coppice will not be viable under ADB. Cutting (to re-coppice) causes stress to the tree, then factor in that the regrowth is small diameter and close to ground level (eg higher spore loading) and you have your reasons why ash coppice appears to be so highly susceptible to ADB. Allowing new regen is the best thing you can do to allow tolerance to develop but evidence shows that whilst seedlings will still be plentiful none may not survive. You need to find alternative tree sp for the long term but don't give up on ash, allow for it to regenerate and promote tolerant specimens where you get them.
  13. Doesn't look like ADB - just looks like Ash doing its 'thing'
  14. Yeah load us up a video of the Garrett whistling through that straight stack
  15. I hope some itinerant tradesmen with no insurance takes the job and fells it into their house
  16. it won't inhibit the spread it is more a case that humid soil and air conditions facilitate higher spore production.
  17. A remedial - god dam it
  18. Riko!! Facking predictive text - makes one sound like remedial!
  19. Is that the 3 or 5 ton Riki? With or without drive? What do you reckon to it?

    Solo?

    Does anyone run any of the new Solo pro saws and if so what are they like? http://www.solo-germany.com/
  21. Survival of the fittest!
  22. Hope this is of use - http://www.wcmt.org.uk/sites/default/files/report-documents/Joe%20Also%20report_0.pdf
  23. A few more of the Valtra at work . ..
  24. 260's were good saws, 261 not so. MS 241 with a muffmod will do you nicely.
  25. Thanks Jon - yes she's a nice wee size for working with the winch in steep woods.
