  1. Yes, ignore the 500i, not relevant. As a stand-alone saw at that price, it looks promising.
  2. Anyone seen these Kress saws that keep popping up on FB? The bigger one looks like a serious contender for a place in my truck.
  3. I bought one. To be fair, Redwood went above and beyond to resolve the issues ignored by the French suppliers. But it was a happy day when I saw it disappear down the drive after selling it.
  4. The top roller set up on Forsts is rubbish.
  5. Awesome.
  6. Did not know that. Thanks
  7. On my 485 the gap is 1/2 mm at the vertical anvil end (inside of the flywheel) I think they’re made to have a slightly larger gap the other end of the anvil for some reason.
  8. It doesn’t identify from photos though (unless I’m missing something) So it’s inferior to Picture Mushroom for example.
  9. Sviatoslav has an opinion, it’s not a popular one, but no one’s getting injured, he’s not spouting ’hate speech’ or whatever Don’t like it? Then argue it, or don’t bother, but let’s not act all outraged.
  10. Not saying it’s not real, but there’s a lot of AI fake stuff on the net atm.
  11. Good point.
  12. And you’ll find me on the bonnet of my Fiat Punto outside Old Trafford.
  13. So why not just go up to the job site and ask for the boss? Isn’t that showing more hustle that hanging around at a distance looking odd?
  14. Well firstly the OP is female. Because hanging around (or as you suggest sitting on a car bonnet) in full gear waiting to be approached is a bit weird. If someone did that on my job I’d assume they were mental frankly.
  15. You’re serious? I don’t know where to begin.
  16. It hasn’t self seeded.
  17. Just checking, you are joking aren’t you?
  18. No insurance necessary
  19. Looking at social media it seems that firms are crying out for any staff from hotshot climbers to the lowest of the drag slags. When you say “asking around” what does that involve? Go on Arbtalk Facebook and ask on there (giving your location) I’d be amazed if no one takes you up on your offer.
  20. Reads like a story board for a particularly mucky porno film.
  21. I could only afford the silage grab and bucket after buying the machine itself. I was able to afford other grabs, splitter, flail, etc. over the years.
  22. ‘Puter might need to reset, same on my Schliesing when I replaced the throttle cable. But I’m guessing now, you need an expert.
  23. All that effort building a superb machine and an absolute joke of a vid. You should have got a 12 year old to film and edit that. Could not have done a worse job.
