  1. Crackin store mate , should last a life time too ! You'd need to charge at least £1500 to make it worth your while , IMO . I know a guy who got a firm from England to build him one of those oak , barn type garages cost an arm and two legs , so the sky's the limit .
  2. I bought a new style plastic handle one last week from my local husky dealer , cost me £80 odd though . Mine had the old style metal handle on it . I can let you know the part number on Monday if you want , or you can trim the alloy on the cover of an old 266 or 61 and they work fine , don't look that great though . TS
  3. I've a part time job most nights , part time beer and cider taster . Pay's crap though !
  4. These poxy panels are everywhere these days , I hate them ! TS
  5. Free , dirt cheap , cheap ! I'll burn anything . TS
  6. Great axe if you ask me , good price too ! TS
  7. This Stihl crap is getting to us all bro ! And this thread is proof it's still constant source of heart ache to most of us !! TS
  8. That's a bit below the belt , it's Stihl with the problem , not Scotland .
  9. The fact that Stihl dealers can't even send you the likes of a brake band through the post now , that is a joke . I'm sure there are a few good dealers in Scotland . Fact for me is my local dealer is hopeless and I got much better service dealing with dealers in England , better prices too . So it's Husqvarna all the way now ! TS
  10. All the best mate . TS
  11. I had a Navara 04 model, in the rear drum there is a pivot for the hand brake on the inside of the rubber boot at the back of the drum and another inside the drum at the bottom . On mine both were guilty of seizing up causing a **** hand brake . This may explain why tightening the cable did no good , you could of course just need new brake shoes . TS
  12. I was up in the Black Isle last October for four days and the weather was amazing ! But in Scotland you can never be sure , usually wetter weather on the west side of the country . TS
  13. Husky 372xp
  14. I had this on my old 254 husy , and it was the sealing of the fuel pipe at the tank .
  15. Get a pair of Airstreams , hard to beat !
  16. Mess ! In my opinion .
  17. I've got a pair of brown leather Teva's and they are fantastic , real comfy ! TS.
  18. 560xp all the way ! TS.
  19. Boy that works with me has been on some state of the art one for a couple of weeks . I think he paid about £60 for it , been getting coffee flavour and cherry this week ! Smells better than his usual fags and seems to work for him . TS
  20. Murder up here too , heat , blinding sweat and clegs ( hose flys ) + midges !! Type A's for me and a stein T shirt . About a gallon of water a day too . Roll on the winter . TS
  21. I've got one. Used to use it all the time , but I made a new lanyard with an ART positioner and I've never used it since . Good though ! Mine was 3 meters . TS
  22. Must have cost you a right few quid for the sleepers ! TS
  23. Hi , I changed the sprocket on my 1998 254xp at the weekend , my oil pump drive is black plastic with slots for the clutch drum to fit into , so I recon that's the set up you should have on your saw . TS
  24. Too much time on yer hands !! Good though . TS
