Been looking for a higher class chainsaw boot class 2 but did try a 3 hiax protector I think it was but we’re like waders and couldn’t get on with them personally. been looking at treemee onse from Italy or the pfanner version I think there all made in the same place

Beat to have set ups a little different for what your doing it’d kill my back having that much but a harness of some sort if good as helps carry the load better. Also your hammer that 3lb one think I’ve got the same one and good shout on the paint -
Dam true from fencing for a long time once thing they do well in new Zealand is rain gear there’s company like ridgeliine I think most know and kiawaka also bushbuck is one I think I know kiawaka have gotten huge and I’m sure they do hi vis if needed I’m not sure on the others. They will be a lot looser fit so good for ground crew but not sure with climbers and again if your really going for it yourll still get hot and sweat a lot in them just the nature of the beast.

Heard back from a company making them very pricey thinking trailer for now and pickup to hold gear and tow it eventually a chipper would be nice but we all have to start somewhere
-
Looking for a dedicated work truck been looking at things like the pickups with a single cab and a small box behind the van with a topper box on the back. is there many second hand going or best to save and go for a new one
-
Just wondered what rain gear people advise buying been wearing a long Portland rubber rain jacket but thorns have done a number on it. Was looking at gortex but costs a bomb then looked at x army stuff and saw this.

All I’ve done for now but working on more

Looking at mabie selling some of my art tend to do stuff with timber fallers and hedglayers etc Here’s a few. Do you think there’s a market for them and mabie doing t shirts would people be likely to wear them or hang them on there wall

U.K. is a joke just police background check as far as I’m aware but in Canada my friend had to show he could shoot and identify animals and the differences in deer etc also a written exam
-
No your right but for the rifles you need a license
-
I need a license for a shotgun should be the same for a chainsaw I reckon too many idiots about not knowing what there doing and possibly hurting themselves of others
-
See you sensible though and have this strange thing called common sense where many people these days seem to lack it
-
your post about the old guy and young guy rings fairly true don’t think I could’ve worded it so well it’s just the attitude I thought was funny then the thing coming down and causing damage and just being a right old mess is annoying as I’ve had to go and spend out on courses etc and insurance and some blkle in a transit van and a stihl 170 rocks up cash in hand and the old guy thinks he’s got a deal til it’s a massive balls up lol went to look at a conifer job bloke said he knows a guy who’ll do it for 50 I said good for you let me know if you want the fence repairing when he brakes it I know a good fencer

Kits come in companies colours there ore builts are blue

Think the Americans are more into modding saws and tinkering with them than here doesn’t seem quite the brand snobbery either
-
Depends what your doing with it he uses his for hedglaying so it’s fine for that but doing a lot of cross cutting and tree work in general I couldn’t say I’ve heard mostly good things but there’s 3 husky dealers near me so I went with them over any other make and other machines I’ve bought have also been husky including w sit on mower and they’ve all been fine.

For a 550xp great saw but Graham’s right those echos are a dam good saw
-
Been looking for ideas for a booth to hose down parts etc with the air compressor any one made anything similar thanks
-
Some people don’t care but there not proffesional and probabley aren’t ticketed and have insurance but I do think one day things will get tighter well one hopes so. what happens if he felled it and it hit a neighbours house then where will they be well you won’t find them haha they’ll be gone with a new number I bet. And as for no Ppe just be another statistic I went to see to some trees in a paddock the home owner had a go and cut the end of his foot off so his wife made him higher a proffesional

Mabie in America where fuels a bit hit and miss I’ve been on 50.1 been fine just use stihls high end oil mix

Big CC Chainsaws a thing of the past or will new models come out soon?
Brill replied to Jamie Jones's topic in Chainsaws
Well seeing as the 372s replacement has gone down so well with the 572 I see no reason why people won’t get on with it I know some people don’t like auto tune but from proffesional timber fallers in Scotland and elsewhere who run they every day and have hours on them I think they’ll do well I mean they haven’t updated them in some time and the stihl 500i went down a storm when that came out things a monster -

Sugihara light bar can’t be beat apart from cost but if your running a longer bar they help with the balance of the saw a lot
