Road trip ! It's only about 550 miles 👍

It's run well for 10 years and he's getting rid of it, why change oil ? Add the bars and chains to the price or sell them separate. £500 is a good price
-
He tested it via the decomp hole so it can't be that.

Badger's arse is a measurement of roughness not bluntness as in rough as a badger's arse. Bluntness is measured in comparison to toenails as in, I've seen sharper toenails.

Across the grain is cross cutting, noodling is cutting along the grain horizontal. This clogs the clutch housing up in no time flat. You spend a lot of time planking don't you ? I've not done any but it looks hard on saws and chains.
-
They need to know not to tension the chain while it is hot, snot rocket surgery. I bought a cheap bar for my 036 on eBay and the chain would hardly pull round by hand however slack I had it. The paint in the guide was so thick it was like paste after I ran it and got some oil round it but it was fine after that.

Is that £1000 worth of batteries I see there ? 😂
-
You don't want to saw with no trousers That kit looks good for the price, the gloves are a bit unnecessary but thrown in with the rest they are fine. I wear a bib and brace Husqvarna trouser but it's a bit hot in summer.

Don't get trampled in the rush😂

They look good if you can pick and choose your wood to process all to the same size and grain. My splitter is handy because it can work horizontal or vertical and I can split the gnarly stuff better positioning it by hand but one of those looks good for higher volume work.

I've had the 135 mk1 for a few years now and it's a good firewood saw to keep the home fire burning, not too heavy and good on fuel. You'll be looking for a splitter next 👍
-
Had you fitted the chain backwards at some point ?
-
It's called the bar or guide bar all the blade references are confusing, the bar doesn't cut anything so the Stihl one which would not cut butter was probably not the problem. Get a new bar and matching chain from the same manufacturer and start from scratch.

Still MS201t High, low and idle speed screw settings.

If it's new it's M-Tronic isn't it ? -
We used 638 and it stops the spinning, bugger to get back out though if you need to.
-
That just makes you hungry because it smells of donuts
-
We've got one self seeded in a tub on the garden and it's always the first thing to lose it's leaves and look dead but it comes back next year, spindly and ratty as ever. I still ignore it and it keeps surviving.
-
I have one of those and it works fine. I refilled it with Castrol LM grease, the blue stuff it came with ran out ages ago. Make sure the grease is well packed in with no air gaps.

If the cylinder cleans up you could get away with seals and a new piston. Not too bad for a decent saw. I wouldn't write it off.
-
It's getting there, going to leave an impressive scar it's a pain about the setbacks and hope you're feeling better now. I got my right little finger crushed many years ago and it was splinted and bandaged, stitched and aspirated (fluid syringed out really painful) and you can't tell now apart from the stitch line up the inside. It'll take some healing over as it's a wide wound.

Elvaston Castle woodland festival is back on, we'll be going for a few hours later on just to get out and have a look round. Weather looks good for today.

It would also mean you only get to use one face so it will last about 10 minutes,
-
I don't understand this bit, lower edge of what ? Sorry if I'm being obtuse.
-
It will be paper then, scrape it off and don't worry about it it's not like you're taking a shed roof down. Blue and brown were banned in 1985 and the rest in 1999.

Base gasket for mine was a metal one. Will yours be a 12mm little end or a 10mm ? Mine is a 12mm
