  1. Just had another look at that tree will get some one to cut it down. Better safe than sorry
  2. Am in Sutherland Noth Scotland. Will get some more pics when the rain stops
  3. Well might need my chain saw sooner than later (joke ). But jus a quick question we have a tree that sort of forks about 10ft up half going one way the other the other way. In the winds we have had half blew down luckey into a garden. The thing is, is the other half now more likely to blow down this could go in to a road or the Inn. Will try and post pic.
  4. Right I have used a chainsaw before to cut up a few logs someone give us We get logging wagons past some of the time. So put them both together and you get a load of fire wood. I just want to have ago. So the plan was buy the logs and process them my self. It may even be cheaper to buy firewood in. When you think of it Sticks, saw splitter and training but would just like ago. So will The Inn is in Sutherland north of Ullapool. would like to add I dont have the wood or the saw yet am just doing the sums Would also like to say the guy who us to own the place did it once and ended up paying some one to do it
  5. Again thanks for the replies which lead to more questions Training is Lantra a business or a government thing like Sepa. If its just to cut logs for my own use isn't 5 days of training at a cost of £600+ OTT? I know we have to be safe. The ones I seen mention tree felling I just want to cut and split logs Is there not a sort of 1 day course to run through the basics and saftey side
  6. Yes to the beer and we have drams:thumbup: but no chainsaw's:confused1:
  7. Hi and thanks for the fast reply. Got a pair of pants bib and brace like padded, boots and the face shield. Will see how much a coarse is £££ and if its close by Was thinking of like an entry level one you guys may use As for the Inn its at the top of Scotland
  8. Hi All New on here so hope this is the right place for this. Am going to get a wagon full 21 ton's One of the forestry wagons we get past all the time. but anyway What I want to know is a good chainsaw or like a list of what to ask for like Chain size Engine size best make??? Was told if you tried to cut that much would I would kill a chain saw? Would I kill it But would the chain last? Are they hard to sharpen or do you just buy a new chain??? lot to ask sorry:confused1: thanks
