In 2014 one of the biggest draws to the No camp was the statement that Scotland leaving the U.K. Would leave the EU... Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk

United Kingdom is a group of countries not one... so by that logic the rest of the EU should have had the vote on U.K. Leaving EU! Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk

I'm a bit further north and the feeling here is somewhat different ! I feel both Brexit and Trump highlight how racist and selfish people actually are. We invented the jumbo jet to make the world a smaller place yet we are now building walls. The EU has done fantastic things for the UK and brought much needed cash into many deprived areas where U.K. Industry no longer exists. Brexit was sold as a lie and will not improve quality of life for the vast amount of people in the U.K. Those who stand to profit are the elites! Whilst the EU has brought in constraints I believe the benefits to being part of that union outweigh those of just being in the United Kingdom. I have always considered myself to be Scottish and European and do hope we get the opportunity to remain in the EU with our without Westminster. I'll get my coat now!

An 025 that belongs in a skip! Sucking in air as fuel pipes perished, clutch cover bearing shattered and muffler that disintegrated!

seconded on the cheap chinese top handle. if the original poster is after a saw as a beginner then the <£100 top handle is way to go.

i have 2 2500 - 10"bar 25cc top handle 5200 - 20" bar 52cc top handle is used regularly and i like it for size and weight. 5200 is common as muck and parts available on ebay. few issues with pull cord springs, tuning needles move with vibration but cheap to fix with parts from ebay. Cut loads of wood with them and paid for over and over. I did think about replacing with a stihl but it keeps going.

i have been using the Holtham chains that are cheap as chips on my MS181 and sharpen twice and throw away. 4 x (Four) HOLTHAM Chainsaw Saw Chain 3/8 LP .050 50 DL | eBay I did think about better chains or different chisel type but the saw is not powerful enough in my opinion. cheers Mike

Hi Guys, Have anyone used the chains from mister solutions? 4 X (Four) HOLTHAM Chainsaw Saw Chain Fits STIHL 018 & MS180 14" | eBay I presume they are just making up loops to order.?

Its AWOL. I suspect robbed to fit another machine.

Hi Guys, Im looking for a carb for a 009 i bought on ebay. Does anyone have something lying around in their scrap pile that would work ? Would something fit from a more current saw or does it need to be like for like. Thoughts and opinions please ? Im super eager to get this running feel the vibes :thumbup:

I bought a chinese top handle saw with 10" bar from ebay. Its lasted a year and only cost £67. Similar to above. Used regularly and still going strong.

Happy with it as it is, slow and steady wins the race... plus got a heap of 1.3mm chains !! Sent from my GT-N7000 using Tapatalk

Oldest saw is the 009 and it has original piston and rings.... used every year since 1983. Book says 25:1 and its going good. Aint broke so dont fix it. Still burning same volume of fuel per cycle. tuning also comes into play, if you run lean richen it up at carb and vice versa. Each to their own. Works for us. Sent from my GT-N7000 using Tapatalk

Id say all saws are cheaply built now, the ms181 next to the 30 year old 009....cant see it lasting that long. Everything is plastic now and only difference I can see between "homeowner" and "pro" is engine size. But just my opinion. Sent from my GT-N7000 using Tapatalk

Paid for its self already, been cutting storm damage on farm for last few days and have around 6 cube of logs. Sent from my GT-N7000 using Tapatalk

Stihl "shots" 100ml are a no brainer for me. Old saws I stick to 25:1 = 2 shots in 5l fuel New saws 50:1 = 1 shot in 5l of fuel Simples. Cost a bit more but failsafe for mixing. Sent from my GT-N7000 using Tapatalk

Hi guys, just bought a ms181 with 14" bar, are there any issues I should watch for on this type of saw ? Only put around a gallon through it so far and seems to be doing ok for a non pro saw. Lack of "pro" grunt due to engine size but not bad for ground work / limbing. Certainly better than Chinese saw and Stihl 009 non AV! I was using previously.! Sent from my GT-N7000 using Tapatalk
