  1. Couple of days of Woodland clearance/thining/deadwood.....
  2. If its just milling you are looking to use the saw for then I would go for the MS661. we have always used the 880 for milling and have stepped it up for a double ended mill with 880 each end. if your able to pick up a used 880 you wont regret having that extra power. What size timber you looking at milling?
  3. Anyone know where I can get a full or 3/4 wrap handle for my 661? Cant see anywhere in the UK that sells them, wondered where ppl have got them from in the past?
  4. DM me if this saw is still available and your looking to sell?
  5. If your not in a massive rush I would get the TW, GM and Forst out on a trial for a day. You can put them through there paces for a day and you will know exactly for yourself then. Doesn't cost you anything and you will be able to decide for yourself what you like best. They all have different good points?
  6. We have got on realy well with this set up.
  7. Belive the they have dropped the engine power from 35HP kubota to the 24HP, i looked at both TW and GM but the Forst comes out at 38HP which made a big difference to performance. But as you said that isn't diesel, the machine is cheaper in the first place though being petrol.
  8. I would have a look at the Forst ST6 petrol, I have had that and the TW230 and the Forst is a pukka machine. They did have a paintwork issue but that's been sorted with a new paint process apparently. Best to try one on a demo.
  9. Agree, easy to fit. Sits flush to the side of the helmet so doesn't get in the way.
