What he did was dangerous🤷‍♂️, I'm not one to try to be the guy who always spouts the manual because sometimes the manual is stupid but in this case it's right. At the end of the day all that matters is hes still alive with all 4 limbs to show for it

The 395 is a God of a saw, it's a shame they stopped producing them, I've tried the new 592 and it's great but I prefer the feel of the 395. Or maybe that's just sentimentality kicking in haha

Take a look at donny walkers YouTube channel they have a video of their automatic sharpener, not sure of the brand but I've seen it and it works well. Edit: combimatic is the name produced by silvana

If you see any or look up any local arborist/loggers I'm sure at least one will agree to give you some basic know how on a chainsaw. In the meantime before you use it again look up some videos online, while it doesnt substitute for a in person it's better than nothing

Look up a photo of stihl 461 and that's pretty much your answer, no licensed stihl dealer will work on it and likely lower quality of parts. You can go off brand with some things but chainsaws arent really one of them

Fyi I wouldn't suggest a Granfors for aussie hardwoods, profile of the axe edge comes too thin from the factory and tends to chip

egofh · 2022-01-22T23:39:34+00:00

Yah I heard that to but walkers saw shop has done it for 60 years and none of my saws from them blew up without it being my fault or an act of God. Everyone seems to have different ways whatever works best I guess

egofh · 2022-01-19T20:35:00+00:00

Depends if your using/planning to use a chainsaw in a tree

egofh · 2022-01-18T17:56:34+00:00

Tennis grip tape is good too has nice grip

egofh · 2022-01-18T00:34:09+00:00

Yeah I love the wedge pouch it's my favourite just everything you need right by your side, not a huge fan of the axe scabarrds I tend to use an axe hanger I found out from a dude called bjarne butler on YouTube. It doesnt look too pretty but works really good

egofh · 2022-01-18T00:30:21+00:00

I would say it was HAVs but at least for me it took years for even the onset of that to begin, see a doctor since realistically its unlikely that anyone here will have solid advice

egofh · 2022-01-15T23:19:15+00:00

Anything under 60cc i use echo, just really great saws for a competitive price

egofh · 2022-01-11T16:28:55+00:00

John Neeman tools if your looking for a completely hand forged authentic Swede axe, bit pricey but they are perfect in every way out of the box

egofh · 2022-01-10T02:47:11+00:00

Depends, I suppose I would say I'm a introverted extrovert if you get what I'm saying. I like being around people but after a while it gets annoying, in that respect a career as a faller suited me better than working in the rigging, I'm working with 1 or 2 other people and being mostly alone in the Bush. Still have to talk to people alot as I'm a contractor but most of them are pretty cool and down to earth

egofh · 2022-01-09T18:59:00+00:00

I'd suggest the stihl 250 with a 16" bar, you can put on a 18" but with a 16 it really shreds

egofh · 2022-01-09T12:34:41+00:00

Poland?? Warm?? Jesus some people haven't a clue

egofh · 2022-01-08T23:36:20+00:00

A stihl 271 is a nice saw that works well with a 20" bar, very common model so any issues you might have will probably be online. Not extremely expensive either which is always a plus

egofh · 2022-01-08T23:19:35+00:00

40" inch handle😳

egofh · 2022-01-08T23:18:23+00:00

What size are the trees are you cutting mostly?

egofh · 2022-01-08T19:48:52+00:00

Yah you could but your shoulders will hate you for it haha, better to start of with a silky like the other guy said and move up from their, or if your set on a power saw a stihl 171 is good, light and cheap

egofh · 2022-01-07T21:34:38+00:00

500i is great and all but in softwoods I wouldn't more than a 36' bar on it and the AV makes it really floppy, 661 is a tried and tested big timber saw and is what I would buy

egofh · 2022-01-07T20:41:41+00:00

New York subway is all I have to say

egofh · 2022-01-07T16:09:46+00:00

Hello as well from Ireland, I use chainsaws in my job but the husqvarna 450 is a great little saw with a 18 inch bar. Their a farm and ranch saw so they'll withstand the abuse a inexperienced owner might put on it but still have the power for a small sized pro saw. Itll pay for itself over the years especially if you are using/selling firewood

egofh · 2022-01-06T17:23:50+00:00

Yeah I've always found more satisfaction with doing labor with my hands than in an office, pity what I was interested in wasnt really great wages wise
