the all aussie dribble thread!

Vince, those muffler bolts x 3 w/ nuts, 1127 series saw, $40 retail from the Steal dealer.....30 bucks with my discount.....

And they've dropped the price of the hp ultra to a little over 20 bucks a litre if you buy it by the litre, but if you buy it by the 5 Ltrs container it's 125 to 135 bucks.....try working that one out.

Yeah I got quoted 30 bucks too for 3x bolt nut and washer. It's not too bad. We buy tonnes of high tensile bolts at work and they aren't much different to that.
I can't stand that oil. It burns in my nose. I got a carton of Mobil 1 to use. So I will be rite for a few years. [emoji6]
But yes that doesn't make sense at all [emoji53]

Stihl NG7. Both a spinner and breaker which is handy. Only takes up one spot on the bench

But it's the price that kills me. If I was a pro needing chains every 5 mins I could justify it but every now and then she's a bit rich for me.

I'm pretty sure the muffler bolts are not high tensile.

Shipping on the GB CN40 TI is about 35 USD from lcs.com
Ti for under$100 shipped usps priority

You may want to order a few more, a pack of bars works out a bit cheaper - shipping cost per bar.

 

[TEZZA]

Why??? can you get it super cheap
.058 in 3003 mount has that ever been made

Because my other chainsaws run it, simplifies chain and rim sprocket buying.

outback truckers

outback truckers

That's correct, he does make me wonder about the trucking business... it seems like a highly dangerous and risky occupation.

Lol did you also have to wrestle crocs at river crossings? Turbo cracks me up

I reckon they would be 8.8's

Sure can. Incoming PM.
THAT 661 is a ripper alrite. Tough job finding a Chinese saw to keep up with that [emoji12]

 

[peter92]

wasnt that lucky, he cracked me up ,reversing into the river, and wheels spinning trying to get out,

 

[chippy]

I'm no expert, but if 8.8 is mild steel POS, I reckon you'd be spot on....

I snapped two of them like match sticks..they slowly bent then lost strength I should say....they didn't go pop.

Yeah he is a clown, always in trouble

I thought it was funny that the belt broke off so cleanly (straight cut) and was just hanging there when he popped the hood.

Years of hot cold has its toll on bolts. We see that at work too. We have a die that has 10 M20 high tensile bolts holding in the insert. Guaranteed more than half of them will be snapped in 2 months time. It shouldn't happen at all in theory. But it does.
