  1. We call it milling up. Don't have to go overboard with it. A nice little brash pile with the saw run through it to make it sit flat is far easier to convince people that it's a habitat pile.

     

    Down side is it always sounds like chainsaw abuse and always make double sure that's what the people want. If you have ever had to go back and chip a 6 month old mill pile, you will know what I mean :biggrin:

  2. Not sure if this is the right place for this, but here goes. I have a 14" SIP bandsaw that needs new tyres (no kwik fit jokes please :001_tongue:) and can't seem to find anything in this country. I could get the blue ones' from the states, but just wondered if anyone could suggest a UK supplier for bandsaw bits and bobs. Ta muchly.

  3. We have found with the 150, that they need to be flat out before you put them into a cut situation allowing) or they tend to bog down, run rich and foul the plug really badly. As said, give it a new plug and have the carb set by someone who knows what they are doing.

  4. Could just be the throttle linkage sticking. Make sure it's all clean and moving freely.

     

    On a side note, my 550 is now over 2 years old and all I have had to do is replace 1 brake band. Just recently it has taken two or three more pulls than normal to start. Had it plugged in and master reset this morning and it now starts and runs like new again. Well worth considering if your auto-tune is a couple of years old.
