  1. I've got one of the very first, late 2011, ones and it's been fine on the whole.

     

    It got used a lot early on, mainly in mixed thinnings, but some scrub clearing and a bit of mixed groundying.

     

    In the woods is where it shines - handles like a 242 but cuts more like a 357.

     

    It's never needed any work and other than occasionally acting like it's flooded after refuelling, been faultless. The flooding is supposedly solved by fitting an upgraded tank breather kit (which I have) but it never bothered me enough to fit it.

     

    It's not been used a lot lately but only because I've been using supplied saws more so it could be going on arbtrader shortly.

     

    Hi Chris, where did you get the upgraded tank breather?

  2. Was wondering what the vacancy situation in Devon and the surrounding areas was like? Have cs30,31,38,39 being booked although have 2 years experience climbing, 32 looking to be booked shortly, chapter 8 operative, mewp and first aid. Any info would be greatly appreciated. Chaars!

  3. Wow, well done. Not an outcome we often read. I know you might not want to go into fine detail but how did social media help in this case?

    Same sort of thing as Woodworks post. Cctv footage was shared by numerous people and community pages, which in turn led to the person who took the saw being told about it. Not wanting charges brought against them they got a friend to drop the saw back. Still amazes me as I genuinely thought it was gone for good

  4. So it turns out miracles do happen, we got our saw back! With the help of social media the saw was returned (not by the culprit) last night. Just wanted to say thank you to you guys on here for your support and best wishes, I know it means a lot to all involved. Cheers!
