  7. https://www.chainsawbars.co.uk/product/g1012xt-granberg-precision-grinder-expected-8th-june-available-to-backorder/

  10. Get back in your fancy potting shed you! [emoji6]
  11. The frequent mentions of “Mark 2” is starting to scare the shit out of me! [emoji33]
  12. Just read ingredients on back of tin, its only so you dont use anything that will degrade your rubber before its time, anything silicone based is best. [emoji106]
  13. Remove it fully again with air pipe disconnected, spray some silicone spray (lubricant non harmful to rubber) around the bags plastic base and shove back in to as it was when you bought it. Pain in the ass but sometimes only way to do it. The key to it is having the air pipe disconnected so your not fighting against the residual pressure in the system.
  14. Similar age, i bet £6k - £10k depending on achievable weight/lift of hiab. Tidy MAN on flea bay at min for £8.5k +vat
  15. I know nowt about processors but presumably you’ll resharpen chains etc as you would with a chainsaw. The wear on the sprocket is not central compared with the new one (meaning early stages of wear as opposed to the later where you have seen the chain ride sideways) You got any broken/fractured links on your chain? This along with tension and pulling through the wood could cause the chain to deviate off centre.
  16. You fit a new chain recently?
  17. You’ve an honest reputable reputation past on by others Yolky! Social media shite recommendations and the like i.e trust a trader are bollocks, and often just give the right for them to charge the earth! I’d pick you over a trust trade any day cocker [emoji106] but i’m a bit old fashioned! [emoji6]My dad wanted a boiler fitting, he did the trust trader route..... as it happened he picked an ex school colleague of mine. I thought fair enough on this occasion cos i knew him!..... worst decision he made, and was meant to be a mate! Shite job and never gave him a cert! I ended up in bother cos i ended up knocking on his head! Stick to who ya really know i say, and if it means paying a little more to get them to travel or whatever, then its worth it!
  18. Speak to Rough Hewn, hes a milling man and a Stihl lover, he’ll advise you well.
  19. Things deteriorate with age, fuel goes stale etc, clean the carb, fit a new kit, replace the fuel line and filter, she’ll be reight [emoji106]
