Agriv8 Posted January 8, 2022 Report Share Posted January 8, 2022 Ps 11s-is on our Yorkshire shoot was extended to nearly early lunch butties ! just about dried out the pint round the fire in the local pub at the end of the day - priceless. Me and the dog gave 110% so even took the ribbing about a safety catch left on incident ( it would have been low if it wasn’t ) for me my 11 year old flanked with his grandad ( my dad ) and walked with me on a couple of drives. Both my lad and my dad saw me drop my only bird of the day ! Agriv8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sweet11-87 Posted January 9, 2022 Report Share Posted January 9, 2022 good idea. probably less lead dust flying around that with a grinder or stihl saw. worst youd do is blunt the chain. and a morning cutting timber will mean it needs a sharpen anyway. out of curiosity did the saw kick much or bog down?.

strimmer_13 Posted January 10, 2022 Report Share Posted January 10, 2022 The curious side to me is telling me to try it. The sensible side is saying don't risk ******* up my £600 chainsaw. I'll have to see if I can find a ****y old chain and have a go. 2 years ago I saw my work colleague cut 3" rubber mat (from a playground, actually still on the floor in the playground), and that ruined the chain, sprocket, clutch, oil feed, worm gear, bar and chain. Also the guy eventually broke the top handle by pushing to hard. Pretty much the chainsaw (ms261) was ****ed after, covered in melted rubber and never went well again, he had it pinned flat out for about 20 mins bucking like mad. The chain was worn nearly flat from the hardcore underneath. That's council mentality for you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My lad is the total opposite , especially with any kind of power tool , I've always encouraged him to get stuck in to things , but he just never seems interested. Are you sure that they were definitely his , and that they were definitely fingers ?. With the amount of visits he has to A+E they probably just sew anything back on 😄 I haven’t been all year I’ll have you know 😂😂😂😂 I’ve cut through lots of lead bullets in trees over the years . Muskets too . I’d love to know the history on them On 10/01/2022 at 02:54, NoBodyImportant said: Not really, it took it better then some hard seasoned oak Try it, it doesn’t even dull the chain TCT blades cut it a treat when I come across muskets in trees /planks at work Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was years ago now but it was a big lump of lead in the middle of the bottom rail in a door. The customer said to dig it out and fill it 🙈 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lever357 Posted January 25, 2022 Report Share Posted January 25, 2022 I saw a program recently where they had to cut some tin roof sheets - the guy took the chain off a chainsaw, put it on backward and cut through the tin sheets like a hot knife through butter with no sparks!!!
