Thanks Everyone seems to say something different! I've been told to use only water, some say add a bit if washing up liquid which is what I've been doing Thought the screen wash was only necessary in winter 🤔

thanks, i tried to call him this morning but believe he is away at the mo

brilliant, thank you. i'll get some on order and give that a go 👍

not many at all as only just got it. i did adjust the throttle a little as it has stretched a couple of mm i'll clean the clutch out and see if i can see anything going on in there defo is pretty wet timber they are Ripper37 blades, which i believe are 10 degrees thank you

On the sawmill, cutting some softwood and the blade seemed to be jamming in the log then riding the clutch, resulting in the clutch getting very hot. Thought blade was done so swapped it out, but still doing it. Did couple of cherry logs the other day, absolutely fine. They were down about 4 yrs before I milled. The softwood has been down about 8 months Any ideas please

Get an avant and grab then, that's what I do now

Rima They make the mills for alot of different companies

Had same issue when cutting logs to split Made this log deck Just saves the back alot too

i put it together myself, all the laser stuff came to just under £100, not bad at all let me know if you want to know where and what i got

Thought I'd try lasers Should save a bit of measuring!

hi can anyone recommend or supply me with sawlogs in Suffolk please, i'm based in Woodbridge i can collect if required thanks

Good... Tis a lovely part of the coast there Ain't many mins down the road from us

What you doing in Aldeburgh 😂 Hope you got a proper fish n chips there

everyone needs a couple of these absolutely brilliant for messing about with hydraulic hoses etc they are straight tip

i've sent you a PM

That was a mint 066 I brought with a whole load of other stuff

It is satisfying doing it Flipping 4x 880s more than paid for the 881 Buying a saw for £50 and selling it for £850 puts a smile on the face

a very honest story, thanks for sharing. thoughts and prayers... thought i'd share the story about my dad, back in the late 80's he was layed off overnight as a plumber, with absolutely nothing, he knocked on some building site and managed to find someone who was prepared to use him to carry out all his plumbing works on a couple of plots. it then grew from there and was him and another guy for quite some years, then in early 2000's he was cutting the grass and slipped on a bit of wet plastic, broke his leg real badly in quite a few places! at that time, he was the business, quoting, running jobs, invoicing, order, doing the work on site, the lot. he spoke to the guy he had working for him, and he was prepared to carry on working on the tools and dad continue to try and run it from his hospital bed, which is what happened... and he managed to pull it through. come forward 20 years to today, he hasn't been on the tools since and the company now employs 19 people with a few subbies not sure if that helps as to what your plan is or could be going forward 👍

Is chain speed or higher watts more important when looking for an electric chainsaw for faster cutting

Thanks. That's a good shout ref free swing 👍

Has anyone converted a loader cone splitter to an auger Or anything stopping me doing so?

Out with the old and in with the new 218 is already sold before anyone asks

yes, obviously with a machine i wasn't referring to cows, they are filthy!!

mucking out is actually weirdly satisfying
