chainsaw hire?

I support what Foxy has said and would add that an inexperienced user is at risk of damaging himself and the saw in an instant.


I am amazed at the number of people here who want to borrow powered tools on the EDF. Any experienced handyman or crafts man would NEVER lend his tools or equipment out to anyone else. They would much rather ( as I do frequently) go round with their equipment and do the actual job for the enquirer. It's safer, quicker and more rewarding than putting one's kit into the hands of someone who might not how to use it and might not appreciate its worth.


Over the years I have built up a wide range of equipment which I have purchased myself to do jobs where other people might pay to use a contractor. I always did my research on the job to be done, learned how to do it and then bought the kit and materials.


I have saved myself a fortune by doing this and the cost savings involved repaid the cost of the kit many many times over.

    • That's a good idea smiley blue , if you or anyone else comes across petitions to end these despicable acts of cruelty to defenceless animals please put on here or start a new thread if you please so we can sign the petition and add our objections to this , I would also like to thank all of you the people for reading these messages and adding your voices to this cruelty,  maybe we can end it 
    • Malumbu, by that measure are police efforts to cut down on anti-social driving by issuing tickets and fines a token effort as well? Surely punitive measures for cyclists breaking the rules will encourage them not to break the rules again? A bit like when you got stopped and taken into the cab of an HGV. The police are currently using that tactic to show those who break the rules cycling that it might lead them to being hit by a lorry due to the driver's having limited vision - the cycling equivalent of a speed awareness course for drivers.    When they stopped you was it because you had broken a rule or was it just more of an education programme and they asked you to take a look and did it change your cycling behaviour in any way? As I said previously there are those who break the rules on cycling out of ignorance (and those out of arrogance) and I am sure they are using HGVs to educate those in the ignorance category and then hitting those in the arrogance category with the PCNs.    
    • Good that PETA is on it but can we add our voices to the fight against this horrible practice? I’m still shocked! A petition maybe? Happy to raise to the RSPCA but don’t want to duplicate efforts. I’ve signed campaigns from RSPCA before which sends it directly to your councillor
    • Yes, I'm aware of that. I believe the brood was five to begin with. However they are almost adult size now so not the prey of rats any longer.
