Best work non chainsaw boots I have are gronell heavy though I see they do also chainsaw boots
Gronell Diablo Work Anticut
WWW.BETTINESCHISPORT.COM
D.P.I. according to EN ISO 17249 "Safety shoes with resistance to chain saw cutting" -
Hard to say from pictures but if you drag out/sned up the larger diameter ones you can see on top with a chainsaw. them, the rest might mulch up ok with the brushcutter esp if its gone half rotten
Using the oregon mulch blade type

I see the head is also double the weight on that versus some others....

Ive had similar with rakers on a new oregon chain.
Chain was "grabby" and pulled jammed into the wood think it might matter more on lower powered saws
& the wood type/ seasoning also makes a difference...

Sounds like several different issues
QuoteAs soon as you put it into meatier sections, it started to throw you around, and run super rough.
Rakers sharpening
Tightness :
Overheating - not oling well .....
Creep:
Tick over/idle to fast... clutch springs

Depends how shinny you want the finish to look I prefer matt looks more natural
If Halifax Oak is some fake plastic oak laminate on chipboard so i dont think needs any varnish if its made from plastic?

I have the sp53h its ok-ish engine seems not as good as the honda izy 160gvx I had before though deck is wider
Always felt like it could do with more power maybe the 200gvc engine would suit a 51cm cut better....
Never use the mulch feature as thats woud only works if you cut the lawn, say twice a week...
Self drive is abit rubbish and it doesn't & bag very well ...
No idea if you can get anything good or better in that price bracket....?

Shifting baseline syndrome is a term normally applied to natural ecosystem degradation. I also think it covers why obesity is being regarded as normal.
If a time machine got a group of people from 1950's they would be shocked by the obesity of 2024.
Whereas younger people may see it as normal and some older ones have also forgotten how radically things have changed as its being gradual

Drier in summer i think?
https://www.nrs.fs.usda.gov/pubs/nh/notes/nh_5_03.pdf
QuoteIn general, the weight of a load of summer-cut (June-July) birch and aspen can be
estimated by assuming that half the weight is water. Wood cut in January or
February has more moisture and could be 6 or more percent heavier than the same
volume cut in summer.
Moisture content will vary from year to year so you should calculate it for individual
cases if you wish to be precise. In addition, if you want to compare the weights of
winter-cut and summer-cut wood, the samples should include equal proportions of
top, middle, and bottom logs because of moisture content variations within the
tree.
Debarking and drying of downy birch (Betula pubescens) and Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris) fuelwood in conjunction with multi-tree harvesting - ScienceDirect
WWW.SCIENCEDIRECT.COM
Fuelwood moisture content is an important parameter for small and medium-sized heating plants. Optimal storage location...QuoteFurthermore, moisture content of live trees varies with the season. With downy birch (Betula pubescens) it is highest in the spring, just before the breaking of the buds and lowest in the summer. With Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris) the moisture content is highest during the winter and lowest during the summer [3], [4], [5], [6].

I can't seem to stop myself from smashing into large size gorse bushes that should be done with the chainsaw.
I know whas you means I must stop doing that, also have a scarret blade to tackle that stuff its just the hassle of changing it so I rarely use it ☺️
Gorse is a bugger as often hard to see where you cutting just a wall of thorns to get though first to reveal the stems.
Might be handy for Donnie also:

Looks overall very healthy will be fine either way - left alone or tidy/thin out the damaged stems.
Looks from the growth like a tree species that could be coppiced/cut to the ground again as would still thrive like a bay laurel...

my next challenge is to see how I can change the clutch unit assembly and shaft so that I can use Stihl attachments.
Why are the hyundai ones rubbish?
I though the idea was to use thoose?
Quote50cc 4 stroke hedge trimmer or pole saw, that sounds pretty grim
Also can't stand a loop handle strimmer. Not ergonomic, high vibrations etc
GX50 are great engines but that seems like the worst place to use one
Yeah what i was thinking
A plus is having less fumes and cheaper to run, but with the downsides of weight and performance v a 2stroke.
Maybe ok for the honda brushcutter with proper bullhorns and antivibe mounts though ive never used that one, only tried a smaller honda witha loop handle that that was bad......

How will they erase hamas unless they kill all 2 million people as the ones killed can be replaced by new recruits eventually?

Is there a modern eqivalent/any new ideas for slopes?
I remember seeing one on being swung about on the end of a rope last yrs & thinking there must be some new ideas........
Was at Conwy castle round the base of the walls no room for large machines & alot of area of awarkward slopes, all very steep....
I know some fancy remote control ones can do slopes but think thoose slopes were just to steep....for any other machines......

I got some curved shears from the japan amazon shop thats are very good on laurel etc.
There like loppers that mated with shears & sit between in the function they do.
You can got at it hacking back chunky stuff rapidly witht them once you get your eye in but there not very good on the fine stems like at the end of the video.
Sometimes use a 18v makita cordless topper for thicker stuff also

Where are you getting the trees from - can't be many places selling such species?

That would be my thinking.
Id say the etseais is probably good as its narrow 46cm deck
If it was 53cm like the orec with same -ish engine blade is cutting about 30% more area of circle
They seem often just to go wider decks but not any bigger engines why not more GCV200 ones etc...
