  1. Hi all,  My brother needs a new chain for his Husky 385xp with a 28" bar. He has just cocked up and bought 1.6mm guage chain instead of the 92dl 3/8 1.5mm guage ( semi chisel) chain he needs ( yes I know it's all stamped on the bar lol)

     

    I said I'd source one but can't for the life of me find one ( a few on american sites but reluctant to shop there because of the postage costs and risk of import charges)

     

    Anyone know where to find one in this country? Tried Ebay, Northern Arb's web site and many others

     

    Thanks

  2. sorry guys - another electric splitter query ; I've read the others but they don't quite answer for me so I hope you don't mind me starting another thread.

     

    Upshot is a bad back means my maul swinging days are behind me and so I'm looking at a vertical electric splitter. think I've narrowed it down to the Clarke log buster 6 at £345 (after VAT reduction and 5.25% cashback) - with 5.5 ton pressure

    Or -bit over my intended budget (wife's intended budget) the Handy pro 7 ton

     

    Handy Pro 7 Ton Electric Log Splitter

     

     

    The hydraulics question is seeing as both these use the same power motor -3KW in this case, is it a straight choice of lower splitting pressure but higher stroke speed versus higher splitting pressure but lower stroke speed? Or is there something else involved?

     

    P.S. This is just for my personal use maybe 4 tons a year or so

    Thanks
