  1. That's what I got told when I ordered blue tongue, but it was out of stock.
  2. I have it, think it's fine and I like the colour
  3. Work out what needs doing, and how often. Add it all up that's your annual price
  4. I think I worked that out at 2 fuel cans a week (just top handle fuel) and a oneshot per can
  5. A vid from my Instagram showing it going through 6" oak. The oak was approx 18" at base it was dismantled with top handle and did crown and chogging down rinsed the battery as it was more then at length.
  6. I don't know how I missed this thread for so long. I reviewed a MS160 Aug 2015 for a company I was working for. If I hadn't not long brought a 193T I would have brought a battery saw.
  7. I like my work when I get to do it. Proper climbs and fells. Not topping conifers or dragging brash. Lol It still amazes me when you wipe the sweat at the end of the day and look at the difference it's made, and the look on the customers face when you've been in and took away the tree for them is always a treat.
  8. I would say rant time, but I've gone past it. Wheel bearing went today and threw me off the road into the verge. Managed to limp the l200 back two miles to the pub car park so I'm clear of the road, and have been sat here since 0715. I put on the breakdown note to the AA that I'll need a flatbed towtruck as it could be brake/transmission problem. A van came out and gave my whee a wobble decided it was the bearing. He submitted a towtruck request to AA at 08:45, they ordered it at 11:30 and I'm still waiting at 14:20
  9. Bearing in mind no one said it's an art comp you'll have to excuse the drawing below , but you should get the idea. If you attach a line at 90° to the flow the casualty will cause a V and will not be able to move. The line should be ideally less than 45° to allow the casualty to slide down the line toward the bank. Water flowing will have a force at: Walking pace 3mph - 7.5kg per leg and 15kg on the body Steady jog 6mph - 30kg per leg, 60kg body Fast run 12mph - 120kg per leg, 240kg body.
  10. Is that a bad thing? Do they not also deserve family time too? If you needed something you should have brought it, if you're looking to spend some money to save a bit, I'm sure you can wait abit.
  11. On the show is your website thread there are a few companies who have a link on their site. When I get a site going I'll have a link for my T&Cs then put on the quote like has been mentioned, something along the lines of, "for t&cs see website, printed version available on request" By having the option to print it saves loads of ink and not everyone has booked through the website/has web access
  12. Good evening all, I'm looking to expand my contact list and fill some time in January. If I could be of use to you, let me know.
  13. Make sure your escape route is clear. I did this one and as the gob closed it sheared the front face off then tipped sideways abit.

  15. Dashboard full of rubbish, were not builders lol
  16. I just make a maul and used an expansive bit to bore through 8" of apple to make a hole for the shaft. They go from 22-76mm
  17. Message sent
  18. I have the ThermoCafe 1.2L and highly rate it. https://www.thermohero.com/products/thermocafe-multipurpose-flask-1-2l-stainless-steel?utm_medium=cpc&utm_source=googlepla&variant=5002598084&gclid=CjwKEAiA3qXBBRD4_b_V7ZLFsX4SJAB0AtEVAi4k8OV6cMU72BS_kLPU2-W1S35AO3TwOSGs_nomCBoCK2fw_wcB

  20. Something like these? https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/401073722013 Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk
  21. I was told any cut bigger than 2inch ish will rot back. The hardest part is not to ruin the shape with it being a quite 'soft' looking tree. Here's one I took at least 10' of the top and shaped to suit. Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk
  22. Looking to fill my Wednesday's, Thursday's and Friday's. My 560 is now wearing an 18" bar I can also provide a timberwolf 150 and tipper if you provide a tip site.
  23. I got these from a recommendation on another glove post. I like them and wear them for climbing and ground work. Slipping welders gauntlets over the top for spikey stuff. I wash them twice a week and usually get over a month from one pair. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/252040916838
  24. I use them on the railway and they've impressed me. To the fact that I've put a 14" piranha bar and chain on my 181 (£15) and just brought two 18" chains for £24.something for the pair.
