Just out of interest, I've always wondered how commercial growers avoid having tatties coming up everywhere forever when doing crop rotation, I have raised beds and no matter how careful I am I end up with them coming through in every bed... I don't really mind, sometimes I leave them and sometimes I don't but how does this work on a large scale ?

To the op, I think you'd benefit from reading the 'todays milling' thread by ' Rough Hewn ' on here and also the many videos and much advice offered by Rob at https://www.chainsawbars.co.uk/ I joined this forum looking for similar advice, there are many on here with much experience and I for one am still benefitting from that. I'm not milling commercially, more of an opportunist enjoying saving nice bits from the firewood pile. I use an ms650 [ a few cc less than the 660 and just what turned up at the time ] mounted in a 48" Alaskan mill, with this setup I loose about 6" off the bar length by mounting it in the mill.. I've got 25", 36" and 42" bars the later 2 being probably oversize for the saw. I think from memory that 42" x 3/8" bar is the biggest bar available for the 660, I know that I'm pushing my luck but I try to be careful and keep the chain as sharp as fecking possible and so far no probs, but speed of cut depends greatly on the timber I'm milling, there's a huge difference between fresh Cedar and long dead dry Oak or Ash for instance. From what I've read [on here] in the todays milling thread, if you're going to be milling 40" it looks like the new ms881 might fit the bill best, but there are older big saw alternatives you have the skills to keep them alive, I always fancied the Husky 3120 but one never came my way... So if you're buying new look and making a living from it, I'd say look at the 881, good luck👍

Like him on acoustic better as I do with many others, they're kind of laid bare and I can learn more. I just came across this which I'm sure you'll enjoy👍

A grim read and a horrible fate, I'd guess this is happening all the time to countless unknown others.

Ok, I have the spline tool but perhaps not suitable for a 346 ?

That's kind of expensive, would it not be possible to simply ][ carefully ] slot the ends of the original screws with a junior hacksaw or, probably better a small disc in a Dremel ? Or buy the correct splined screwdriver tool .... very cheap. I know it says for disc cutter but if you scroll down the page you'll see the questions answered for saws.

Very nice👍

Yes, I'd not be happy with any system that relies on electronics in that way, I'd want whatever power I generated to be completely independent from external influence, but I can already see from the input on this short thread that I've got a lot to learn, cheers.

Yep, super interested in this topic.. I considered PV before just the feed in tariff was removed, iirc it was 43 p per unit but just missed out, now I'm not really interested in what I can earn but far more just about having volts whatever happens in the future. So with that in mind I'm thinking of accessible ground mounted PV and batteries with the possible addition of wind and genny Also thinking about bio-digester to be independent when it comes to gas cooking... after all every morning I produce the feed for such a system which at the moment is being wasted 🙄 Even if reliable illumination is all that's able to be achieved particularly with LED's which draw very little, this in itself would be valuable, I look forward to learning from the input of others which is essentially the power of this forum and the reason I joined in the first place. cheers. It's funny that I've though about this all my life and now that it's a practical reality there may be no time left...

Everyone should read this 👍

Ok, I kind of meant that now that we don't have to obey any EU rules there is much scope for a lot of bad shit to happen, I personally would be very sceptical of any ' correct regulation ' being carried out in favour of big money.. and also from reading your posts I have to say that we're very much on the same page ... mostly🤪 As far as the NHS goes I found this doctor's statement revealing although I can't prove any of it, but it reveals a long term plan and I think when change slips along over generations it mostly goes unnoticed except by those who've lived long enough to see it happening... now if I saw anything happening for the better I be fully in favour.

Yep, she's right out there talking sense but unfortunately I doubt that many folk are able to join up the dots, I find it really depressing that almost immediately after we leave the EU things start to change in the direction of the even more corrupt US agenda and this pesticide issue is merely one example.. The biggest and most noticeable to us may well prove to be healthcare but it's all the other little things that are being done silently that are slowly but relentlessly unpicking the very fabric of all that we hold dear,,, imo RB interviews many folk who deserve to be heard and although I wasn't a big fan of his previous career I respect his sharp mind and willingness to comment on just what's wrong.. Also on another website that he provides links to he and his guests speak freely without the current censorship issues.👍

This popped up immediately on YouTube blatantly quickly after my post 🙄 What a powerful intellect..

I wonder which of the poisoners makes it.. I skimmed the article and didn't see who's pushing it ? It's our governments ' Health and Safety Executive and ' Expert ' Committee on Pesticides ' , if similar to the US is no doubt composed of ex pharma high fliers and financed by pharma. A lot like Sage !! This is exactly what happened in India and many of the the poorest African countries who received pharma's philanthropic ' assistance '. This is actually quite an old, well documented but much ignored plan to gain control of the production of our food by achieving seed patenting and ownership.. The damage that's been done globally is immense so it's not much of a surprise that our ' up to their necks in it ' puppet governmind ' will probably let this atrocity happen ... I can imagine the bribe... Something like.. ' let us kill off your pollinators and we'll give you the money for HS2 ' it'll make you look great.. and history will forget your crime and what you did as it'll be all washed away by the agenda of the NEXT leader we appoint who will be handed a greater plandaster to distract the ' HERD '.. as they seem very keen for us to become, Personally I've always seen myself as an individual but that seems to be out of fashion at the moment.. And after all.. who's going to bother about a farming issue in the middle of a Global Mass Psychosis Diversion ? just saying...

I've had a couple go that way and also one of my saws, they were very well used but had been reliable and I put it down to a combination of worn or hard crank seals and cold weather... once I'd managed to get them running and warmed up they would then start normally, so that could be a possibility in yours. I used to put them next to the stove and warm them up in cold weather and this usually worked but if not a wee squirt of fuel down the plug hole would do the trick.

Hi, I have to do this with one of my saws occasionally which can result in me flooding it, at which point I either walk away and leave it for a while or pull it over repeatedly with the throttle tapped fully open and the choke off which eventually clears it. If you suspect flooding then you could also take out the plug and pull it over a few times and that should do the same job. All engines are slightly different in their idiosyncrasies as said, if it gradually splutters back to life as above that could indicate flooding, good luck.

Aye, for sure to all of that.. although it would seem that these RCV engines have solved the sealing issues due to modern materials science and precision.. perhaps if these issues had been addressed sooner we might not be in IC engine place that we are today. Also I recently watched something on the storage of energy in very large flywheels powered using Stirling engines. Personally. the latest drive for all of everything to be electric I've nothing against but I CAN see it for what it is and that EV's aren't greener at all when you take into account manufacturing and end of life... there just polluting in a different way, and for the foreseeable future I don't expect much other than cars / bikes etc to be EV... Quarrying, shipping, flight diggers and everything else will still be diesel... but if they were twice as efficient that would help. However if we had access to Tesla's secrets for instance which I firmly believe are being concealed then that would be the real game changer that the current cabal are resisting, I read that OPEC were meeting today to decide what Price per barrel to inflict on us next. 👍

Yeah, I'm no expert on aero but I know that many of the radial engines were sleeve valve running off a cam at bottom of the sleeve. To me tech has finally caught up with the concepts of 100 + years ago and is enabling some of these excellent ideas to actually work, I think that the main advantage is due to comp ratios of 16 :1 being possible without detonation thus more completely using the calories available and therefore much more power and massively reducing pollution.... I think we're way past the time that poppet valves should have been dropped [ no pun intended ] 😁 Apart from anything else, and although it's much improved since I was young, more complete usage of the available calorific value would mean much smaller engines to do the same job. This has fascinated me since I read about the Aspen engines in Motor cycle mechanics in the early 70's, cheers.

I am not up to date with these RCV's but I think they were initially developed for model aeroplanes. The concept goes right back to the start of engine development with many different rotary valve designs many of which were dropped due to lack of engineering tolerances and sealing issues, there's an old book titled ' Valve mechanisms for high speed engines ' by P Smith which had many different designs illustrated. Back in the 40's there was an English guy Frank Aspen who experimented with rotary valved Velocette's and got great performance with very high compression ratios but could never get the sealing problem to be reliable and they burnt too much oil.

If you like that solution you'll like this one as well and it's much simpler, I posted this a few years ago on here but got no replies... sorry it's not a Husky 🙄 At the time they were looking for a partner in the forest / garden machinery sector to help with develop their chainsaw / strimmer engine which then was 35cc, it seems as they found one, cheers.

I think you'd probably be ok to take down as they're quite small and I'd expect the roots not to rot that quickly giving you time to monitor and possibly under pin if required.... imo

I'd say these days they are or the flue is backfilled with insulating material like vermiculite for instance. Doesn't seem right.. but I'm no expert on my stove the outer skin is often too hot to touch and in fact requires 2" clearance in passing through floors or roof, I think your best bet would be get your flue inspected by a professional to make sure it's safe 👍

Yep, I don't think I could name a single Labour politician any more and now that I think of it tbo the same applies to the SNP up here. apart from the Kranky cnut of course. I wonder if this disconnect from politics in general that I have due to a lifetime of listening to their shite and observing their corruption, stupidity and pocket lining is also common enough in other folk globally. and to a large extent this absence of oversight has led to the ability of these halfwits to rise up into positions of power that they don't deserve making decisions that we're unaware of but that affect us all... or perhaps this has always been the case particularly, when you look back into human history ! And it seems now that the upshot of this intellectual dearth and the absence of morals in favour of greed and personal agenda's in politics has allowed big tech / pharma to a position where they now have the technical ability and power to enable them to pounce on the whole of humanity completely unchecked.. only my opinion, most will probably disagree.

Hi, page 41 mentions the PPR briefly but then tells you to contact your dealer for the setting...cheers. https://stephensonequipment.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/10/Bandit-90XP-150XP-200XP.pdf
