Weird Stihl bark harvester attachment.

[Oddsandends]

I saw this weird attachment being discussed on Facebook:




I did some research and this eBay listing turned up:

Stihl, Haltegriff für STIHL Spezialsägen 0000 967 3598 FD | eBay

Haltegriff für STIHL Spezialsägen 019T, 020T, 190T, 021-026. Stihl, Halterung 0000 967 3598 FD. Fräsarbeiten in der Baumpflege.

I thought it was for firefighting, but I guess it is a cheaper and less permanent version of the little-known MC 200 bark-cutting saw.



Here is the MC 200:

I thought this was cool, and this was a pain to find.

You have NEVER harvested cork bark. I remember how pissed you, Pityqeel, and sean denato go when I said that the 500i looked good because I had no experience.

No. They don't really do cork bark here.

Well oh great one then why are you commenting on it?
Where do "they do it" then?

Here’s some pics I took a few yrs ago {2016}, while I was holiday, I’d never seen them before, and saw that they harvested every 5 or was 7yrs ? , I just remember they chalked/painted on the tree the yr they harvested it.

No. They don't really do cork bark here.

Then why comment on someone else not doing it?

Our climate does not allow the trees to grow here. The cork oak grows in Italy, France, Morocco, Tunisia, Algeria, Spain, and Portugal.

Why all the hostility in here lol. I think it’s a neat deal and has to be a faster way to harvest cork than using an axe or saw.
