Anything for pussy...

You need a movement licence to transport infected timber. Get it from the FC You can still sell / use the timber but it has to be taken to a mill with a processing licence to deal with the infected timber appropriately.

They are on a sale price on the logosol website atm. Cheap as chips [emoji106]

Woeful company. Lost chipper blades , sent someone else’s blades out, never use them for that again. I bought a few chains and most of them were sent out too short. They had sat in the van for a while so typically they weren’t interested Never used them again.
-
Yeah I’ve used them. They love conifer. I guess the gravity feed likes that material. Stick a piece of hardwood around 3” in it and they are miserable.
-
I wonder if one of those budget chains comes out of the same factory as those crappy rotatech chains , they have been quiet on social media for a long time after the battering they took a couple of years ago .....
-
Weren’t we all hoping he would find the random nail half way through a cut in one of those trunks ....... I thought the husky chain was made for them by Oregon anyway.
-
I hope he has a powered log splitter, it can be miserable stuff with an axe or maul .... good way to work off that Christmas dinner I guess [emoji38]

Better off with the cs100. I’ve seen the results of a couple of hours chipping on those generic small machines. The blades are incredibly soft and get ruined with a couple of hours use . The key to those tiny chippers is having sharp blades. I think the green mech will have a much higher quality blade that will stay sharp and chip better for longer. The OP would be better hiring a decent chipper when needed or getting someone in to chip for them instead of spending money these chippers really. Small chippers are labour intensive, gravity fed , bits bouncing back out , snedding everything before it chips. A lot of time used.

Wheel weights. Water filled tires. Forestry chains would be a massive plus in the wet stuff.
-
That’s ok for me. I’ll drop you an email or PM and see if we can some booked. I’m not in a rush.
-
I’ll send you one of my 660’s to do and compare if you are available in January [emoji106]

It’s all computer / machine cut. Volume boring furniture. No point trying to compete with it. Go bespoke and more unusual. Social media will be your friend to launch it I suspect. Ask Steve B he’s good at all that stuff. Don’t underprice yourself early on. Hand made furniture is time consuming, skilled and deserving of a good price tag. Good luck.

I have been mulling the idea that when the house build is more complete here ( not too far off ) I may see if there is interest in a bit of a camping / saw fest / beer up festival at my place. [emoji106] Sunday saws especially welcome [emoji23]
-
Are they hot on H & S over there ? I.e you should wear chainsaw trousers , equivalent of Lola for kit etc when working professionally Or are they typically laissez faire
-
Did spud do the 660
-
Either way , great lid. From a safety point of view for climbing I’d say reinstate the chin strap Mick.
-
I’d like to learn to port saws and have a Collection of working classics like bucking billy ray [emoji23] some of those old husky’s and mcCullochs he runs are great [emoji106]
-
I use the same lid. I also like it a lot. Personally I keep the chinstrap done Up when climbing. I always thought if I had a mishap up a tree and fell the lid would probably come off my bonce before I either hit the deck or the trunk. Does yours have the gold coloured metal mesh visor. I quite like them. Easy to bend back into shape if they get squashed by other kit in the vans.
-
It would certainly help my wallet.... I still can’t stop buying chainsaws I don’t really need.....
-
Should think 450 / 500 ish. Better used than sold I would of thought. Decent chainsaw.
-
I dunno mate. I think Mr Bullman needs to check some of the IP addresses , they seem to reincarnated under different names [emoji23]
-
Must be pissed a lot, it’s not just today’s posts [emoji38]

I’m not so sure , having read through some threads on here this evening sadly this forum is in part taking a nose dive. Too many clowns who nothing about Arb and seemingly don’t want to learn or listen because they know best. Which inevitably de-rails threads into bun fight. Funny sometimes but it’s kinda diluting the forum down towards Facebook levels ..

The chipper in the video looks pretty woeful. Even if it is cheap. I could see it struggling on dense greenery such as conifers etc. The diameter material being fed in it in the video is pretty small. Make sure you do your homework before buying. You don’t want to be disappointed and unable to return it. [emoji106]
