  3. this is interesting... Definitely saw war about to errupt πŸ˜‚. You need to remove the can of ribena from the petrol saw....
  4. The house has revealed a few treats being in the same family since it was built in the 60s. I'll clean it up tomorrow and see if I can identify it a bit better. Does seem to of had a bit of worm so I'll dip it and see if I can keep the handle. He definitely used it as it's well battered for sure.
  5. Well then poppets let's have a weigh off in the morning. I'll go weight up the 151 full of fuel with saw bar at 13" ... And chain...and oil...... 😬
  6. Yeeeees 😎

  8. Yeah it's lovely and light. I'll investigate more in the daylight. Will the markings reveal the make etc...?
  9. Yep . It's lighter.😬
  10. What?
  11. Sure. The 151 is lighter fueled up with a bar n chain...
  12. Not had any problems yet with the 151 so I'll go with it. Had husky efco and Stihl, now on my 3rd Stihl I'll stay that way. I just can't be bothered fixing stuff and like it to tick over hanging...
  13. Going off at a sideways here . Definitely stick to the German toppers in my book
  14. @Mark Bolam The 151 is lighter than the echo with the bar and chain fitted ,full of fuel and oil... Keep up poppet 😬
  15. Not unless I trip over in my slippers with the 151 after doing kindling on the fireplace πŸ˜‚
  16. Only been here a few months and it's where my spaniel is in camo mode so the lovely carpet stays...πŸ˜‚ The 151 I'm getting used too. It's not like my old 200t but certainly nice to work with. It's very light and powerful enough if you get your cuts right....
  17. Carpet is epic , was here when I moved in. Yes lol about the strop...πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚
  18. Nah it's lighter 😬
  19. Found this in my new shed today. I'll have an oil up tomorrow and see if I can identify it. 😬 Been here a while now and started getting into the outbuildings a bit ...
  20. Graveyards are usually strimmer terrain in my experience too
  21. Yep one of these will fix it for you and also it will lighten your load a bit...
  22. That's brilliant....πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚ Yeah sure maybe unfortunate to jam one but FFS...πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚
  23. Stump grinding is dangerous. Do what you thinks best I would cut the wire back to the stump pull it out of the way then grind the stump. Good luck
  24. Any half decent grinder will munch it. I wouldn't use anything smaller than this.....
  25. Cut it back with wire cutters so it doesn't wrap around then grind it
