  1. Stihl 150 bar and chain modded as coletii showed and yes she flys better than my 150 with 2x8mm holes drilled.
  2. Till the cutting gears changed , stihl win
  3. Modded a 150 bar and chain to go on the echo today , now this saw flys, better than the 150 now !
  4. They're terrible in the winter, never had a pair of boots that make my feet so cold, I had to buy a different pair for winter months.
  5. Ats in lower beeding , Horsham
  6. Ok , update on the echo today , reducing a beech today, this saw feels great in the hand , balanced well , love the angle of the handle , but here we go the chain the cut, with beech being so hard when I went to cut with the last 1/4 of the bar the chain struggled to bite and would skip and bounce about just making a mess , cut closer to the saw and it wasn't to bad , cutting in larger timber it jumped juddered as if the rakers were to low. I gave up with it and got the 150 sent up , lovely , going to mod a 150 bar and chain this weekend.
  7. So I spent the day deadwooding oak with the new echo 25/10 with carving bar and 1/4 chain , the saw is so light , lighter than the 150 and noticeable , but the chain , well it just ain't as good as the one on the 150. It feels rough in the cut, jumpy judderey whereas the 150 is so smooth , so I think I'm gonna have to mod a 150 bar and chain on , the saw it self feels great though
  8. well I popped in to the local dealer to get a new carrier for my 150 and came out with this
  9. heres another elm that I came across on purely high street right next to a nice black poplar as well.
  10. found the problem, multi plug had come loose pushed in and off she went , such a little thing causing days of grief and lost money
  11. So I have an 07 Iveco daily 35c12 doing a bit of work on it the other day moved it six ft then it wouldn't start. It had warning lights ( car and padlock ) any way a couple of fuses had blown a 5 and 10 amp replaced these and the warning lights went off but the EDC light stayed on and it won't start , it turns over , sprayed with easy start and it goes but not without , primed fuel up to the filter. Any ideas please.
  12. But why monolith anyway seemed a healthy woodland tree ? And it won't be a monolith for long !
  13. That's a good way of getting yourself out there and seen , and the public then think what a generous genuine bloke he his we'll use him . Good on ya, great idea.
  14. I'll give you a grand for it , go nicely with mine.
  15. Good luck if anything will get stuck it'll be a cab star
  16. I think your problem is you're use to the way you work and tend the Prussik and now you're using the hitch climber ,they're not the same , you're use to pulling down on the Prussik and sliding the hitch up and that won't work with the hitch climber if you want to use the Hc you're just going to have to change the way you tend it
  17. Rubbish, why should she go in there and expect something for nothing just because it's a slice of lemon and hot water, she wanted a drink and got what she asked for.
