Spotted this today. We were doing line clearance in behind this property. All the timber, brush and stumps are just piled up in a big mound in the field. Looks like the shears was used for everything it coukd reach, id say a hoist was used for the rest. Worst tree work I've ever seen.

Finally got my part Chinese part OEM 660 up and running. The wire coming from the coil to the switch had torn out, so that was the cause of it not starting all these years id say. Fixed a few other very minor issues. The metal collar holding the rubber intake manifold to the cylinder had no...

We felled some big ash trees today. They were healthy but growing right beside a shed so they needed to come down. This was the tallest. One had a big limb resting in a crotch of an adjacent tree. Obviously it had to be removed before either tree could be felled. Look how much the...

My buddies 020t just won't oil. He's changed the oiler, the worm gear and the pick up filter. He's also thoroughly cleaned out the oil system. It still won't oil. He's using the right bar. The bar is fine.

Ha! They love hunting stupid things like reptiles, insects and amphibians. Mine loves catching frogs.

Big western red cedar beside a house. There was also an old shed right below the far side of the tree that you can't see in this pic. 3 stems. 1 of them very big and co dominant with another two big leaders growing out of it lower down. I climbed one stem nearest the house, de limbed it...

Been doing a lot of line clearance lately so no fun trees to post. Reduced this hornbeam last weekend. It was growing at 90°. The customer didn't want to cut it at all but it was red rotten at the butt and the very end branches were practically up against the house. Apparently people...

Yeah i ordered the 1/4 version of the saw but they sent the 3/8 version. What's your web address? Indeed it is but I dont have one. Friend has one, I used it to tube the saw the other day. Much better now.

There is no limiter caps on this. I need some round splined tool to tune. Idk. Whatever chain it came with. Echos own chain? Or oregon? It was horrid aggressive out of the box. Ive sharpened it twice without touching the rakers and it still feels jumpy.

I like this echo but its really not suited to timber this size. However, its running very rich. I dont have a tuning tool for it. It didn't come with one, which is frustrating. It came with a chainsaw wrench and an Allen key tool but not a carb tool. Annoying. Id love to see how it cuts...

Id say youre right. However half of the loose plugs/decompression valves I've seen have been on machines that were fresh from the dealership and had never been used or tampered with. So no one other than a stihl professional had touched the machine. I can't remember if I ever took the plug out...

Check out this big dead ash growing out of the bank of this stream. Pretty cool. Another unhealthy looking sycamore. We felled it directly away from the camera. It was quite back weighted. We had to double and triple stack wedges to get it to fall. I had cut my hinge down to nothing, not...

Happened to my 2018 ms261c in November. Decompression valve came out of my 2018 ms462c in march 2024 The spark plug in my 1998 020t was coming loose a while back but I noticed before it stripped the threads. Mine and my work partners 2 new 2025 ms500is both had loose spark plugs from the...

Looks a bit like a gilthead bream

Lol good response.
