Craobh replied to Matthew Storrs's topic in General chat
I don't do arb work per se but if we get a call from a distance then the first thing that runs in my head is........why they calling me when I know there are folks in that area......I guess maybe not helpful but it is one of many things I do think of. Oh I so agree picture quotes are a no no ......I get folks sending me pics asking how to etc etc and as you said they can't show the full situation ......that often causes frustration but I won't bid or quote on jack til I standing there. Business is a numbers game (as everyone knows) if they don't stack jog on by no use losing money -
365 or if bigger it's brother the 372 but that might be a bit heavy.....the 254 but it older also a 357 with a 3/8th set up and ported Mine flies lol
-
Highlands lol.........oh to be back in NC it 75 there lol

I agree it what your in and what your running. I use my 372 mostly when I'm falling unless it really big then it the old 2101 lol (I got a 3120 but think the old girl pulls better with the big bar and skip tooth. Lol you call it Doug Fir cool....I was confused when I was back here and some one said OR pine. I think they thought I was lying when I Looked at them blankly and said never heard of it lol I guess what I'm saying is choose the saw for the job but don't stick small wiggle sticks on the big girls it doesn't do any good and well can be unsafe for many reasons.
-
That is very good advice
-
The 562 you'll have to import. There have been a few negs bout it but it cuts aggressively. if your looking to buy something like that here go for the 365 it you won't break it really is the wee bro of the 372
-
you looking to buy?
-
Husky will not go outta biz lol maybe in the UK they ain't good but back stateside they are ..........if they didn't them they'd have a revolt on their hands lol.........I dunno bout here but back home it is regional ie. some areas are stihl dominated some Husqvarna and Jonsered it depends who landed the dealership lol Husqvarna used to be hq'd in Charlotte NC I think it moved tho and Stihl is in Virginia beach VA
-
We cut usually on a 40 year rotation .......there is some old growth left but that mainly protected now but there plenty of second growth
-
