  1. Thanks, might have to make spud try something new we can't all have 372s
  2. Yup, but the 576 needs some work anyway, the 372 already works ok! Lol Ps add to this thread- still love my 346xp and 200t spud did for me What about modifying chains etc on ported saws? Eg taking depth gauges down more? And different sprokets? Should my 346 have a different sproket to put the chain speed up?
  3. 576xp portable Mr Spud? considering that or the 372
  4. Think the bigger companies should be able to offer type approval, but they'll be the expensive prices! I'll pm you.
  5. Thanks. Yeah I've had a good search. But not keen spending thousands on a bit of kit without having a good go. I like the look of Thor, the 13 magic would probably do me lovely, but can't have a hydraulic option only petrol powered or PTO. Friend has a hey rack. Be nice to have something a bit faster and more portable. I have contacted a few dealers but not much luck re getting to try before you buy! Charlie.
  6. They wouldn't know where to start on mine I bet... But good cause - £60
  7. Been trying to buy a splitter, but don't have much experience with various types. Any companies that will give a good demo, or rent one out for a week or something? Probably run off tractor hydraulics. Thanks
  8. You never ported that395xp of mine did you? Mate keeps wanting me to ask as it cuts so much better now! I have a 576xpg (non auto tune I think) that keeps cutting out at the end of cuts, as soon as you let off the throttle. Does it more often when using half throttle. Really really annoying! Any ideas? It runs fine starts fine, idles fine. Dies immediately at the end of a cut, not die slowly. 5-6 pulls and it starts again. Know where I can get any big saws spud, 3120xp, 880 etc?
  9. Have a customer who needs a simple report written in Braintree Essex. Please PM if you can help or know someone who can. Thanks C
  10. Just moved some of it, a quick list of what's there, all sizes approximate, any ideas on where I might sell it would be appreciated. 22 ash boards 2" thick. Approx 8' long. 14-22" wide ish. Some has lovely colouring. 3 ash boards 4" thick, same width length. From the same tree as the less colourful ash above. 5 oak boards 2" thick, 15 or 16' long I can't remember. 15"+ wide 2 oak beams, 1 approx 6" square, 8 foot long. 1 8" square 10 foot long. Some semi splayed beech I played with when I got my Alaskan- 4x 2" boards, 2x 1" boards. 12-20" wide 8-9' long
  11. Ah sorry, Essex/Hertfordshire. Forgot not everyone can see location
  12. I've got some Ash, and a little Oak, and due to a change of circumstances I have to move it out of it's storage ASAP. Rather than keep moving it about it would be easier to sell it! Where's the best place to shift it quickly? It's mostly 2" boards cut with an Alaskan. Mostly 8 foot long I think.
  13. Lovely job as always there Mr Spud! Thanks once again for the 346, such a pleasure to use! Tempted to fix the heated handles now! I stretched my chainsaw repair skills this week: On my bench were 3 saws, new bar and chain on 2 of them, and a new clutch spring on another!
  14. I'd guess 1 Ganoderma pfeifferi - Bees wax bracket - David Humphries’s Fungi Directory - Arbtalk.co.uk | Discussion Forum for Arborists 2 ? 3 4 Ganoderma australe (adspersum) - Southern bracket - David Humphries’s Fungi Directory - Arbtalk.co.uk | Discussion Forum for Arborists 5 Inonotus dryadeus - David Humphries’s Fungi Directory - Arbtalk.co.uk | Discussion Forum for Arborists
  15. Wouldnt expect anything else from 'The Hama'
  16. Hate it when Tonys right... Tree fell over in the recent winds. NOTHING solid left on the roots, all the major roots were soft enough to stick your finger in with no effort! Seems Merip on Q. cerris is not a good combo! Pic to follow.
  17. I had a Cerris to clear up after the storm too. Will add to the original thread I made about it many years ago.
  18. I thought your little chainsaw driven one was great
