  11. Dont forget to drop the depth down low enough to avoid hitting any screws securing the ladder as not the first or last time i have fooked that bit up rushing ?
  12. Use a plastic bag cut down for now wrapped inside the fuel cap and sealed when you screw the cap on and should be fine for a short term fix.
  13. Well done phil but those brackets look a little flimsy.I have a ladder i only use just to get the first straight cut and screw direct through the runners most of the time and secures it as good as required.Just looking and your push handle should be on the opposite side.

Evening all,Ok been on the forum for a good while and never seen the question i am asking about covered.I knocked down a tree for a family friend 2 weeks ago and i can keep all the wood and mill it in place.Had a full day cutting so around 4/5 hrs saw running time in between moving and sorting branches ect. The lady in question has now had a letter complaining about the noise so she is worried now about me milling it up in here garden as there are a lots of houses really close by.Is there a rule to thumb sort of thing using chainsaws in built up areas ? I have said i will speak with the council on her behalf but would like some feedback off you guys please thanks les.
