I use the the blade a lot, pushing up the excess chip for removal, it also can scrape the soil around the already ground stump to create a more level finish.

"Get out" ha ha

Ha ha, I'll give you a little story, years ago me and a mate both ran rayco 1625s on finger teeth, he had a job involving hundreds of small stumps in an area the size of a football pitch. Nothing big but he called me in to help so we worked side by side. He had been told that he could run half the teeth to the same effect, so that's what he did. Result; no quicker and the teeth broke regularly compared to my full set. Hope that helps.

what are you all up to over the bank holiday

Sooner you start the sooner it'll be over:001_smile: -
I had a chipper nicked when I was in the UK, the lesson is this: secure your stuff, no point moaning about lazy disinterested coppers, it's down to you to be proactive, trackers, security cams, alarms whatever it takes. It's down to YOU, and it always has been.

D link with choked lifting strap as rigging point
Mick Dempsey replied to dicky mint's topic in Rigging and roping
I can't see a problem for light to medium rigging. I've used an old cambium saver with a Krab before. -
I've a Stihl 291 for that, but it would've ruined the picture!

I used to go up and get the nests, but now I just tell them to take the trees out. There's always more up there than you think. Get them on cedars here as well. Tbh I've taken many down, started wearing masks and stuff but abandoned that after a while, I've never had a bad reaction. I just chip the nests.

Oops!

Possibly, I can't remember, semi pro, nice but.......

Just a thought, it looks a lot like a semi pro my dad had (possibly called a rancher) with the 254 sticker.

I noticed that, mine were black/grey.

It was a great saw, I had a few of them, must be knocking on a bit now.

Tricky grind on that bank Clearview, innovative stuff, is the engine happy running at that angle?
-
Can't say fairer than that.
-
I've taken the ferry numerous times with saws, never any bother, just empty the fuel tank, Jerry cans can be problematic however.
-
Very decent cedar, sawmill took it away thankfully.

36 with a grab, changed my life.

No more ringing up and hand balling for me! My chiropractor had to cancel his holiday though due to loss of income.

Not strictly speaking today but more "in the meantime"

One of the early duff 201s after an upgrade, not too shabby, wood is sweet chestnut.

One to be going on with. Rayco rg35 plus Kubota for clearing away the grindings.
