  1. OK , had on on my 461 for years and fancy one on 500i before i flog my 461.. anyone fancy a tidy 461 with full wrap ? ๐Ÿ™‚
  2. What's lead time ? Thanks ๐Ÿ˜Š
  3. Exactly....has any one ever been asked for proof of tickets etc when they bought any other brand of top handle apart from stihlusky? Online shops will happily sell you a top handle Milwaukee etc which will just as quickly modify your anatomy as a Stihl 161t would... Crackers.
  4. Protestor grabbed tree surgeonโ€™s safety rope while he climbed tree with chainsaw WWW.FORESTRYJOURNAL.CO.UK She grabbed the safety rope of a tree surgeon who at the time was climbing up a tree with an active chainsaw in his hands. apologies if discussed before but caught my eye.
  5. Wow! not seen one of them for a while! First Avant i remember seeing or indeed anything like it! My first boss had one about 25 years ago...๐Ÿ˜ฎ seem to remember it had a penchant for catapulting unsuspecting lads off it๐Ÿคฃ
  6. As above you'll need to dig into it and ask for removal and in meantime ask them a temp solution. Some forces use a simple band of duct tape etc on side of number plate as a signal that you are aware it's got a mark and will avoid a hard stop unless you doing something stupid. (This happened to my nephew got hard stopped by 4 cars before he knew it was incorrectly marked)
  7. Two charged over Sycamore gap tree WWW.BBC.CO.UK Two charged with causing criminal damage to famous Sycamore Gap tree and Hadrian's Wall last September
  8. IIRC Tudor environmental at Coventry had some, worth a try. I think i remember looking at one there once seemed ok for the money.
  9. Not unless you very patient/determined ๐Ÿ˜‚ I'd hire a decent belt sander ๐Ÿ‘ But a bit like arb if it's your first rodeo I'd recommend getting a lad who's done it before to do it as one wrong move with a big belt on low grit will cause tears ...
  10. Looks like solid or decent engineered so you've at least 4mm to play with. It needs sanding period. Depends on what look you want. If you want a older style warm look with good grain showing use a hard wax oil like OSMO. 2 thin coats . Or for more modern pale look use BONA Mega Extra MATT or traffic hd RAW. Sanding wise, prob need 40,60,80 and finish on 100 or 120.
  11. Another NOCO fan..here๐Ÿ‘ Get on Amazon sale...started big Deutz on screener a bit back...๐Ÿ‘Š Ruddy handy bit of kit. But...make sure you buy the 240v charger adaptor...charges it properly and v quickly.
  12. The diversity of the replies on Arbtalk never cease to amaze me ...
  13. Enjoy.๐Ÿ˜Ž Now for the negative bits.๐Ÿ˜‚ Follow the starting procedure exactly you'll be fine ..I thought I knew better and battled for a bit. Watch out for tension releasing and sudden slack causing tangles... Skidding cone handy but tbf with one op on winch and one guiding/rocking with cant hook you can shift some surprising stuff.
  14. It really is one of the things you buy that surpasses your expectations. Was dragging these for fun that's 28" for scale. I've got videos but might get done for child labour on the winch op ๐Ÿ˜†
  15. you need to stick to their dedicated rope for best results.
