You can buy the 58cc or 52cc saws on eBay for about £60 new. They had one at the farm for a bit, plastics were brittle and brake was soon shot. It was a thirsty thing as well.
-
Or made it into a big see saw There were some mature white poplars down the local fishing pond that gradually lowered themselves to the ground with the prevailing wind over a number of months.

I put debris netting up as an idea and noticed that the system shown there uses the same stuff. We use it for screens in the garden but it is very strong, use it as a hammock. You could make an enclosure from line pins and tie wrap it on to hold it it's easy to work with and dirt cheap. You can buy 50 metres for £20 and tie wraps are cheap. Double it up if you want stronger. You can buy it as garden netting as well in different colours.

Echo 361 wes comes with a 14" bar, I'd have one if my 135 packed up.

I found a meme looking round the internet the other day and it suits this thread down to the ground. I had to laugh in the queue at the supermarket when a lad went past in his check flannel and blue cut off jeans with beard and topknot with head shaved up the sides, tan work boots. The young woman in front of me looked at him and after he passed she said "knob". I nearly cracked up.

You might as well bring beermats

Turn it over with your electric drill before you spend any money on it if you suspect it is no good.

You nicked his punchline, you is a bad man

It could have been dropped and had some new or aftermarket plastics fitted, plenty of options on parts. If it looks a bit suspect and is too cheap there's always the option to pass it up but it's always tempting if you think something is a bargain.
-
It sucks the fuel mix into the crankcase on the up stroke and it enters the cylinder through the transfer ports. If you want to see into the cylinder you need to take the exhaust off.
-
It looks genuine. The fakes get the choke lever and on/off switch wrong and that one has the proper ones.

I will be having a ride out to Northern Arb for a couple of chains as soon as I have shaken this stinking cold off but I put a new Stihl chain on my 036 a while back and found this did the same as you are saying there. I just stopped the saw and pulled it out of the cut backwards then started again I think I was just being over enthusiastic. Back to the Lem Sip now
-
That was surreal.
-
You can buy scaffold debris netting cheap enough to make screens. We got loads from ebay for £20 delivered.
-
You do realise it's Sunday and nobody has anything better to do. I have a stinking cold, snotty nose and no dog to entertain me. The bacon is for breakfast tomorrow so just had tea and a scone. Idle banter is fine, much better than going outside and getting wet. Carry on Harves, wherever you are. (It's just cold and grey here, no wind or rain)

You could give him a hand instead of watching as well

I'll second the Codling moth diagnosis. We have a couple of small eating apple trees on the back garden and this year they have been ravaged with the little blighters. They are tiny, about 6mm long with a grub like body and black head. I'm getting a couple of pheromone traps for next year.

They are governed to the sweet spot aren't they ?

I would have been alright walking behind the mower after three weeks but lifting it in and out of a van would have been a different matter. I would say 5 weeks was when I was getting back to normal, just the odd pulling sensation but now I am back to normal at about 10 weeks. I'm 64 and was putting up with it for the last 9 years because I got fed up of hospital when I had bladder cancer but like you it got too painful just a dull ache most of the time and was causing other problems (urinary ) One side done(the most painful one) and now so much better. You'll know when you feel up to doing a bit, don't get impatient and undo the good work the surgeon puts in. Sorry for the derail as well but it's good to get these things sorted. Back to the original post Buy the saw and have fun with it on your Logosol.

I was black and blue for about 5 weeks but I was able to function normally but nothing too strenuous. About 10 weeks and I am up to previous capacity now. I did not have key hole, that is supposed to be quicker recovery. I'm booked in to have another one done at the end of February by the same surgeon, he stitches nicely so I only have a thin scar. It's not something I am looking forward to but once it's done I will be a lot happier and more comfortable. Mine is inguinal hernia are yours same ?
-
I'm retired and only cut firewood but I do like to go to the local exhibition every year. I had just had a hernia operation when we went this year so I was not at my best I didn't even attempt the 088 they had there
-
I picked a 661 up at the last exhibition we went to. I put it down again quick it was heavy
-
He who laughs last didn't get the joke when the others did Tell them to p1$$ off and grow up.
-
En route, is that like on root ? Are you getting the really big dictionary to beat Stubby round the head ?
-
I think they lose their memory and forget what they are supposed to do. They are supposed to keep hot things hot and cold things cold but how do they know which to do ?
