Yeah, I've done this a few times, lowered a big thick hedge, husky 385 with a 28" bar, took it down 3', hedge cutters only do so much Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App

If you check the AFAG guides, it covers one handed use, and where it is necessary, such as reductions out on a limb where a redirect is not possible, it says yes to one handing Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App

I don't have an 088, only an 090, and I don't particularly fancy lugging that up into a tree, ever! But whilst on the idea of porting, it was mentioned a few years ago: ported saw = more power, which means a bigger bar on a smaller saw, which is less weight, so less fatigue, which means when the 088/090/3120 or what ever big saw goes up, you don't have to use it as much, meaning you get done quicker, which means you aren't as tired People who say an extra second or two in a cut isn't worth it haven't had the ported saw on a bigger bar option, you can do more before sending up a bigger saw, meaning you save time of sending up additional saws, after all, I would assume no-one sends up the biggest saw straight after the 200t?

And? Deer are deer, they live in herds, whether they be captive for the table, or travelling across the countryside freely, difference is that one herd can be checked and have medication administered, the other herd it's a lot harder to do. Every population needs the numbers controlling, it's just were allowed to do it with anything but humans, weed out the weak, old, sick, deformed or infertile, and develop a good stock, what you shouldn't get hung up too much upon is the word bovine, it's like referring to P. ramorum as sudden oak death, it existed before cows were cows, and it'll still be around when cows are no longer cows Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App

Just checked, the 211 is 1139, shared with the 171 and 181 Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App

Check the first 4 numbers of the product item code, if they are the same, it fits, for example, an ms261 is 1141 200 0080, the ms271 and 291 also start with 1141 as they share the same crankcase Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App

So your gonna need him to bake a few cakes to make amends here Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App

Oh yeah, you get good ones and bad ones, like saws, or cars, though I do think a cull on humans would be more challenging, with it turning into a free-for-all Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App

No, 50% of immigrants pick up the slack from the dole dossers, I'm for the badger cull, as the population grows exponentially towards the carrying capacity for an area, the animals welfare declines! It's better for them to meet their end quickly from a rifle than starve to death! The best example for this is buzzards, bloody everywhere a few years ago! They gobbled up all the food, so now there's less food, so now there's less buzzards, kuz the food is harder to find Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App

Port it, it can never have too much speed and power, unless you tweak it enough to do 100mph in first Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App

how best to tackle this french oak woodland
Eddy_t replied to Paul in France's topic in Forestry and Woodland management
Mmmmm you should manage the wood just for those penny buns! Fried in butter! Just remember knocking out too many oaks will get rid of those fungi, as boletes are mycorrhizal fungi that help the trees Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App -
This policy is a right pain, I'm having to buy all my parts via the Internet from a guy in Germany, and German stihl dealers take longer to post it over Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App

Pointy side up! Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App

Ah but seeing what you do to them makes me want it, although I haven't taken off as much as you do, being as this is my first proper go Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App
-
How big is large, how much you taking off, what you doing with the waste, what fuel do you use, what saw are you doing it with, are there any targets/obstacles below, any utilities near by, is it residential or farm land, do you have helpers or on your Johnson, has it got ivy growing up it? The list goes on, you see the details you give mean nothing! If its 20' tall it'll take less time than if its 60' tall, you'll have less to do. DETAILS are key here Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App

After much umming and ahhing, and watching spuds videos, I decided to tweak my 357, just got to get the muffler modded now, I have done the cylinder, fired it up, and it runs fine, so I'll retune it next week Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App

Test a brushcutter or clearing saw out in there, you could loose the cypress too by testing a saw, test a mower on your lawn, make it all smell lovely with aspen fumes, you know you want to! Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App

It's worth fixing, and relatively cheap to fix compared to some! 1129 350 0806 - 200t fuel tank £50ish 1129 640 11702 - side case £30ish 1129 140 0602 - muffler £30ish Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App

When you say hot, how hot is hot? Floppy plastic hot? Or just bloody hot to touch? Don't forget it will naturally get hot around the engine anyway Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App
