    Which Echo?

    If I was looking for a new saw I would probably pick the Echo CS-361 WES because I just like the look of them.
  2. Buy them all a saw each and tell them to look after it.
  3. Turn the H screw in a bit to weaken the fuel ratio. Don't overdo it or you could run it too weak and lean seize it.
  4. Clean the air filter
  5. I bet whichever he bought it's probably worn out now it was 8 years ago
  6. I agree. Wasn't last winter predicted to be the worst for umpteen years and it never happened. We only had 2 days when it snowed here.
  7. A friend of mine had a few pairs that they wouldn't take back so he cut them up and made a giant wind chime.
  8. If you wear a ground helmet in the tree would you still be allowed to use a top handle saw ?

    Jukebox

    CD I picked up in a charity shop [ame] [/ame]
  10. There's a homemade one on Youtube, might need a different clamp arrangement for round wood but the idea is sound. [ame] [/ame]
  11. I've no chance then, I have an orange one, a white and orange, a red one and a yellow one (and they're all made out of ticky tacky and they all look just the same)
  12. "Last link in the food chain" on the side of a Dynorod type van round Derby. The cowboys versus indians was on Singh's builders van.
  13. That sums it up, the weather here is dismal.
  14. Leave the root ball for a few weeks then pressure wash the soil out of it and sell it as a garden sculpture. Or burn it.
  15. A friend of mine bought a David Brown and contacted the owners club with the numbers on the chassis and engine along with some pictures and was helpfully supplied with the original registration by its first owner. Good result saved him some time and bother.

    Tiny echo!

    It's optional though, they are not going to come round and snatch it off you if you want to keep it
  17. There's a beauty on the High Street just round the corner from here. I wouldn't fancy climbing one though the branches are really dense.
  18. I'd be more worried by the Cartman vest I'm 64 and don't have any tattoos but varicose veins come close
  19. No, how hot are you getting the chain
  20. We have nothing to lose but our chains If it's not badly kinked and the chain still pulls round smoothly after it's worth a try.
  21. I don't have any tattoos but that would be cool.
  22. Tesco has lots, peppered my favourite.
  23. My bite from Monday while out dog walking. It drew blood but I got my own back It sent my thumb numb for a while. Those corn flies really make me itch just looking at them.
  24. If you know the break is definitely at the plug end you can get joints for HT leads if there's room for one. Try unscrewing the old lead if you want to replace all of it and get some copper core HT lead it's cheap enough on eBay.
  25. It'll go higher than that with the right conditions 15' to 20'. It's tempting for kids to pull it apart and play with the leaves and stems and it is evil. Gloves and coveralls and remember not to wipe sweat off with the back of your hand the after effects can last for years.
