After spending most of Saturday chopping up logs with a brute of a petrol chainsaw borrowed from the outlaws I decided I want one of my own.
But I live on an estate where the houses are fairly close and the petrol one is soooo bloody noisy, ears were ringing and only put earplugs in on the second tank of gas, neighbous also made a few comments, one of which is puting in his own log burner so is sympathetic.
So to be kind to my neighbours I was thinking I would get an electric one, with the added bonus that I can actually use it in the garage and dont have to fluff around with petrol etc. The one we were using lasted 2 tanks of gas then just gave up, and i cant be bothered with this hassle either.
I know any self respecting tree surgeon would turn his nose up at an electric but for what I want it for (chopping up logs 3-4 times a year) it seems sensible.
was thinking of getting the Husqvarna 321 EL (2000W) which is one of the most powerful electric models I can find (except the STIHL 2.2kW ones which are £4-£500).
so any one used this model? problem is I cant find anywhere with it in stock!
then saying that i try to split all but the worsed of it with an axe
