  1. we went for the stihl procoms, seems like the battery life is better, plus audio in both ears. also, they're higher dB rated than the protos bt
  2. The 230 is a much better chipper than the 150 performance wise, and from what I've heard they don't chew bearings anywhere near as bad. stretching to a 230 will benefit you long term. would probably swerve the Forst.
  3. Theres no such thing as a chipper that's too big for the job, just too big for the jobsite. engine wise Kubota V1505 are great. TW150 are solid machines but the bearings are a constant battle, and theyre not exactly going to set the world alight chipping wise
  4. They were African tool sellers mate, can remember names and they hardly spoke English, they buy direct from the thieves. eBay account was removed a few days later. Id wager 80% of accounts on eBay selling used tools are similar set ups. unfortunately people still buy off them and leave good feedback. That's why I only buy new tools now from HB or Skyland
  5. yes had the serial numbers of a few from ordering spare parts etc, and lots of pictures of all the nicks and breaks on them. That's how first noticed my husky 560 on ebay.
  6. They weren't the ones that stole them, they were an ebay shop with approx 300 other used tools on. They actually gave them up voluntarily after we turned up at their lockup, threatened to get the police down there ( they didn't know police weren't interested)
  7. Police weren't interested, but we got the saws back
  8. scumbags, keep an eye on selling sites, its amazing how thick some of these pricks are, all our saws were listed for sale together a month later on eBay
  9. Looks better form a Ddrt stand point than the RRP (although ive not had a propper climb on either so cant really comment) If its 80% as good as my SJ3 at Ddrt and also does SRT, then its a winner for me
  10. That's a pre-order though, delivery sometime in July I heard. Rather just pay when its actually available than give a shop a 600 quid interest free loan for 2 months lol
  11. Looks like it ticks all the boxes, SRT/DRT ready, mid line attachable. My SJ3 is due for replacement so will probably grab one of these when they're available
  12. Tbh mate, China these days could be more accurately be described as a Fascist state (the true dictionary definition of fascism not the blue haired progressive definition), so it shouldn't really make you far right! Chinese cars, machinery and tech is taking over the world, mainly because we outsourced so much of our production there and then act shocked when they start beating our own companies. Look at the BYD factory they are building, I think its going to be like 10x the size of Tesla's Giga-Texas plant. We gave China an opportunity to be the worlds factory, and they took it and ran with it, and now whether we like it or not, they're going to dominate global markets with construction machinery, cars, phones, laptops and theres very little we can do to turn the tide. go watch some videos from the recent Shanghai auto show.... mind blowing
  13. Just ordered the Milwaukee M18 top handle, will report back. Ive heard the Husky is better but as previously mentioned, its getting on twice the price, and I'm already set up for M18 as got lots of DIY tools and their pole pruner, so be handy having extra batteries
  14. As yet unclear, no sign writing on the tipper and using a hired MEWP.
  15. THIS ADVERT HAS EXPIRED!
