Thanks will steer clear if I do build my own

Thanks for all responses. Will have another look into wood sheds then but without felt roofs 👍

Thanks for all responses. Any suggestions on makes of sheds then. will have a look into the flat packs. my plan is to have the shed up off the slabs

As the title says looking for shed recommendations. Looking at either 6x8 or 8x8 , I’ve been looking at metal sheds as most likely will be put on a slabbed area and I like the idea of not needing to keep treating a wooden shed. any recommendations would be great thanks in advance

Thanks for the reply’s will definitely be looking into what you have suggested. 👌

Thanks for the reply. I will take a look at the Mikita. I used an echo multi tool a few years ago and was impressed

That’s great mate thanks for all the info. yeah I mean grass trimmer rather than a brush cutter. I will look out for those makes

Cheers will take a look at there full range

As the title says looking for recommendations on a small hedge cutter and strimmer. Mainly for works around my property. But potentially will have some maintenance work at some local property’s that will require them. I had been looking at battery husky stuff but friends of mine recommended second hand stihl petrol stuff off market place for a couple hundred less. I’ve only ever used petrol, but for the infrequency of work, I thought battery would be better and also can never be too sure with secondhand stuff any thoughts or recommendations would very welcome

So far that’s what I’ve been doing as do love my boots and potentially might keep doing it. Just wanted to see what other options and potentially any cheaper ones there are so hopefully my chainsaw boots might last longer. cheers

Brilliant thanks guys will take a look at those suggestions

Hi everyone As the title says I’m after a pair of non chainsaw protective work boots. Currently I wear my Meindl Airstream‘s all the time but doing less and less chainsaw work recently. Ideally after a pair of waterproof boots with a steel toe. Something similar to the Meindl Airstream with out the chainsaw protection would be ideal. A lot of my work recently is walking around people land and estates as well as tree planting ( not forestry spec rather groups or individual larger trees) and some hard landscaping work. Just wondering what others wear and any recommendations. Many Thanks

Hi Got to look at my old flip line yesterday, for those interested it is the same thickness as my new one which I was thought was the case. The only differences I can see is that the out layer of the line looks as if it is a slightly different material to the new one, also due to its age it’s rougher which maybe the reason it grips easier in the rope grab. I’ve got a small tree job coming up which I will use the new one on to try it out. As people have commented I think the grab is working fine just slightly differently to how I am used to. Thanks for all the comments and ideas. many thanks

Grab says 10.5mm-13mm so should be fine for the line. When I can get hold of the old one which will probably be next week I will check. There are a few types of grab from isc so maybe I had a different one on the old line or the line could be different.
