  1. I work for my LA and id say 30-40% of our winter work is limes,epicormic,canopy lift,prunes and pollards. I cant imagine how those trees are going to look in a couple of years
  2. Cheers for the links matty. Looks like a handy device
  3. Ive seen the single rings for rigging but never the treble (safebloc).What would be the need for the 3? Sorry im bit fick sumtimz
  4. Honey brothers do the magazine,some other of the other arb suppliers stock em too. Asfor wearing jackets in tbis weather is beyond crazy...
  5. I think tcd's still posting but under a new name... Anyone guess??
  6. Theres an entire thread on the 2511 and its predecessor the 2510.Having never run one myself i really dont know but from what ive heard and read theyre great little saws. Think the threads called little echo..? Give it a search and read through it mate. Its pretty thorough so it will answer all your questions im sure
  7. I should add i run a 12 " bar on mine and it just encourages you to bury it into wood that you shouldnt. Perhaps if you advanced the timing aswell it might cope better.Remember its a small guide bar and using for takedowns will cause the chain too jam with the crud in it. Mines does this...its the only issue i have with it...my own fault so i cant bitch
  8. Yes but 12" max cause its pushin it.If you want a small ripper get an echo 2511
  9. Teufelburger have also issued a safety warning on some of there rope slaices.. https://www.facebook.com/groups/269475046595740/permalink/675325669344007/ Can be found at gustharts website for those who dont have facebook
  10. Great advice matty.I think your bang on there. It is after all a pruning saw but once its moded its difficult to go back to the 201's on the harness. The 150 is so light it doesnt even pull my treemotion down. Only fault i have with it is sometimes the chain jams up,probably due to the excess crud in the narrow bar,apart from that a great little saw.

  12. Better to take out the exhaust and use a dremmel to remove the spark screen and widen it.You can get a timing advance aswell to really pep it up. Theres a guy who modifies saws on here called spud. I recommend you speak to him about it as he really is the expert on this.Send him a private message. In the meantime all.i could find was this american guy doin his 150...

  14. Being a whingin leftie myself eggs i can sympathise
  15. Just seen this....hmmm,i dont think we'll ever be bff's but id talk about trees over a pint with ya...your round though, after all i am scottish and i know you like a stereotype
  16. Post it notes are my saviour...theyre everywhere...wife hates em..
  17. How conveinent for you that after my post quoting figures you suddenly come out with a figure just above the MP salary i quoted....hmmm i smell porkie pies to save face... That aside,im sure you will conceed that your teacher friend is in the minority and his salary is not a reflection of the average assistant head throughout the educational system. You seem to have forgot that some MPs will earn more than that 74 grand quoted as that is just an average..oh and expenses which can run into the tens of thousands...
  18. The average wage of an assistant head teacher in england is 42,500. The average wage of an MP in england is 74 000 plus expenses..your arguement has just fell on its arse
  19. Ok...em...i totally agree..i didnt see that coming. I have too add though there are many ways to save money and many more deserving that extra money than our alreadly well paid MP's
  20. Your logic hinges on every pensioner being a scrounger which just isnt the case. How many pensioners are well off? Do you have any idea or any statistics? In reality the number is probably quite low in comparison to the 1 billion your stupidly banding around
  21. If were talkin about saving money looking at pensioners is barking up the wrong tree imo. What about our MP's who think its completley acceptable to vote themselves another pay rise every 5 minutes who's policing those buffoons. Im really gettin to the point where im thinkin guy fawkes had the right idea. Theres a quote in a famous movie that is very apt here "Nest of scheming b@st#rds that couldnt agree on the colour of sh!te"
