  1. Ivys really having a field day now on all the hegderow dying ash trees and trees with thinning crowns. Loads of it everywhere. Also seems to become more dominant in the last few yrs esp in hegdes the are flailed alot (several times a yr) compared to hegdes less regularly cut. Maybe climate related also.......

  3. Boris's bridge from scotland to northern ireland the next big project?
  4. The goverments mixed msgs & free market idealogy of out sourcing the covid response to a selection of private companies that seem clueless has lead to it being a series of disasters. If they had acted sooner with bringing in certain restrictions imo it would of being less deaths and also less lockdown restrictions needed now so less overall disruption to the ecomony. Bit like clearing an area of rhody best either don't bother or aim to do a proper 100% job so is doesn't come back Half a job is abit pointless and means alot of money waisted if its just allowed to regen.
  5. Who owns the land you are planning on stealing this wood from? & what do wrists have to do with the price of fish?

  9. Makita just brought out 40v batteries. No chainsaw for them yet though....
  10. Comparing old bar to a new bar was a big difference one mine as could waggle the chain side to side on worn bar & didn't move much on the new bar. Some bloke hammering a bar to close the rails:

  16. Wonder if thoose rainbow gay flags all over the place to support NHS has annoyed some? Kind of weird that every small rural village round here now has that gay pride NHS sign next to the village name sign ? .
  17. Had the same thing happening and finally realized this was the cause after thinking it was uneven/poor sharpening Internal wear on bars grooves even though the bars looked only very lightly worn by visual inspection.
  18. MS 181 v makita ea4300 is a completely dIfferent beast having used both. Using the eA4300 makes ms181 feel rubbish /slow in comparison ms261 is another step up in power....

    New tool day

    Better be good for £250 ?
  22. Defo right chain and bar combo and its oiling properly (nearly full oil tank to one fuel tank) and not running a over tight or over slack chain. And spur sprocket wear now too bad atm .325 Original dolmar 15" bar and and an oregon speed 15" cut both worn the same. Only other thing might of affected it I can think of if I burred a chain a few times when it flew off cutting blackthorn had to de-bur a few of the rakers.

  24. Thankyou yeah its the same saw. Did you need a shim/washer? Bars seem to be wearing internally like pic below and maybe rim sprockets will help reduce the speed of bar wear....
