  1. Still shouldn't be day rate. Tonnage or volume rate. Only fair. And appropriate.
  2. Them boat anchors I'd need to be a silverback
  3. Absolutely not cost effective unless you're talking oversize hardwood or less than 200 ton in the job. Mechanise the job. Bollocks to hand felling. Even bigger bollocks to tree surgeons doing it. There aren't any snedding knives on a harvester. Snedding 🤮
  4. If I was considering a 362 I'd have said so in my original post. A 400 will be my next new saw. Personally have already had a 362 and it was gutless shite. Don't tell me, I'm about to turn the page and someone is going to suggest a Husqvarna 🙄. Y'all missing the point. A friend is selling the 461 and 500 at the stated prices. This thread is exclusively about them and them only. It's not difficult to understand! Surely I don't have to put in capital shouting letters in the op that other recommendations are NOT what I'm after. I had an Echo 620 which trounced the 362 but was heavy.
  5. That's a 362. No thanks. 🙄
  6. Can't make my mind up 🙄. Been offered used but both in very good condition a Stihl MS461 vs Stihl MS500i. Will be used with 25" bar the majority of the time. 20" very occasionally. Already got a MS660 running a 28/30/36 if needs must but doesn't relish it. Superb on 28/30. But want to help my elbow heal so above choice is before me I've heard the 500 is perfect on a 25". Light, fast, snappy. Likes a drink. Also heard it won't gear down on her like a 46 series saw. Used to own a 460 and fine on 25". Is a 461 about the same as the old 460 or what? Is a 46# really torquier than a 500? Struggling to find exact weight of 461. I'm not confusing this with a 462. The latter isn't on the table. 461 is £450. 500i is £975. Decisions decisions. Any wisdom gratefully rx.
  7. Most definitely not an arb waste machine tho. You can barely squeeze a ring bigger than 9" down into the splitting chamber. Then the splitter ram power is pretty low, max 5.6 tonne ish. Dalen 2054 is the kiddy.
  8. That stump looks classic farmer cut to me. Back cut coming from above and tilted down to hinge.
  9. When the kid gets to court for this he is apparently going to identify as a beaver.
  10. Overuse of the word "vile". Fashionable word I know but..
  11. Won't go again. If that's what you call a woodland show, c ya later.
  12. Why do Toyota persist in using a smallish 4 pot and a low towing limit? Hugely limits the potential customer pool.
  13. Ireland!!! 💖💖💖🥰🥰🥰 🏉
  14. SMTO. Y'all know who she works for. Oh no, of course not. The Veil is too nice to lift.
  15. He's been set up. That's my opinion. Not that I'm his greatest fan by any means. But he's spoken truth to power and this is becoming the same old way of dealing with said offence. If he "takes his own life" it'll prove the BS. Some say he is / was controlled opposition. So either way, elimination could be real or fake. I wonder which island in Antarctica? 🤔
  16. The MSM are even using the term (he) "hid in plain sight". Precisely the SOP of those likely behind this fabrication. You couldn't make it up. Dave and Steph will lap it all up though. As will Reg and Silvia, Steve and Debs et al
  17. If he's been saying too much about the clot-shot and the WEF then what do you expect? Soros will happily find, fund and fabricate a situation like this. RBs past makes him easier to hook. It's classic. So obvious.
  18. Imagine if he was English! 😱🤣
  19. Bang on. Having a JR with an attitude is one thing. Having a 9 stone beast with an obvious malevolent side can't be justified.
  20. Government to ban XL Bully dogs... Good imo. Don't care what anyone else thinks. Generally owned by morons who want weapon dogs to intimidate and make a statement. Ban the lot of them. Plenty of nice sweet breeds to chose from. German Sheppards and Rottweilers are fine. Blatant weapon dogs can foxtrot oscar.
  21. That old chestnut winds me up. Every doughnut says it, almost as if thou shalt or be shot. Same 💩 different year. Is it not beyond the wit of man to think of something different for a change? Even "evenings are getting darker" would be original and refreshing by comparison.
