Very nice mate. Just don't use cheap alternative oils/mixers in it - it'll play up like a mo-fo.

Yep got the saw for £750 and 20lts of chain oil for £45 tbh I dont mind the cost as its paid for any way ive just got 2yrs worth of timer for heating for £80 so was worth getting a pro saw.

[QUOTE=Jamest5r;747549]Cheaper than the gas bill would of been :)[/QUOTE] Very true we used to pay £90 dd a month gas and it still needed topping up over winter time so for the next two year heating for us its cost £880 with buying the saw and thats on 24hrs a day
