Toolstation/Hawksmoor battery chainsaw. Very good saw @ £120

The above video works well. My first tree was a sycamore and i was nervous using the adjustable friction saver, that it wouldnt hold on the spar but using the ring to cinch was all i needed. Try it.

thanks for the replys. Im happy to go for the chainsaw course because im worried about that kickback problem but ill save my money on the rest.

So, as i have self taught, i can continue this way?. As for insurance , no i wont have it but i wont take on jobs over property that can be damaged. As for myself, i'll trust the gear.

Run a small gardening firm in the UK but want to expand into treework as i enjoy it the most. Didnt know about tickets required so jumped in and spent 1000's on gear and a used chipper but i put the horse before the cart. Booked on the cs30/cs31 early december. They advised i would need cs38 and cs39 as well. Not an issue. My question is, will this be enough for me to legally work in the trees or is there a better avenue i should follow?

£40? try the cleworth jacket @£19.99.

currently i have a stihl lomg reach thats great for conifers and privets but it chews up laurel hedges. can anyone recommend a hedge cutter that will cut thicker branches and may be a better option for the broad leaves. that chopped up , hanging on leaf really irks.
