daveAustin Posted June 19, 2016 Share Posted June 19, 2016 (edited) They do those in lots of hardware places, including Homepro I believe. 100 baht ish. Little thing, about 10" across with a hole for poking length of bamboo. /as above // Edited June 19, 2016 by daveAustin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crossy Posted June 19, 2016 Share Posted June 19, 2016 Wifey has something like this https://www.directtoshop.com/product/71533 I'm sure it wasn't as expensive as the HomePro one, but it wasn't 100 Baht either. Came from the local farm / hardware shop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJCM Posted June 19, 2016 Share Posted June 19, 2016 We have approx the same as Crossy showed, but not as fancy. But we only bought the saw and fitted a Bamboo stick (about 2.5 meters long) to it. Costs less then 500 THB and that was for the saw Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cornishcarlos Posted June 19, 2016 Share Posted June 19, 2016 Ours is similar to Crossys, came from Thai Watsadu and cost about 300 baht I think ! Had 2 now as the springs are not the most robust... We attached a 3m length of bamboo as a handle.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daffy D Posted June 19, 2016 Share Posted June 19, 2016 Similar to all the above Orange color "Solo" brand from Homepro or Thai Watsudo can't remember which or recall the price. Extends to about 10ft and has worked great for a some years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
samuijimmy Posted June 19, 2016 Share Posted June 19, 2016 The type Crossy has (or wifey!) tends to get caught up in the branches, from my experience. Better to have one of each...saw as shown by MJCM and the pull type... depending on what and how much needs to be pruned.. Do not force the pull type it , especially on larger branches (about 1" max ) It will be done with, very quickly. Poor quality metal on the cheap ones, even the blade.

riceyummm Posted June 26, 2016 Share Posted June 26, 2016 I believe that is illegal in Thailand without a permit, 12" maximum blade length is legal without a permit. That has to do with wood poaching. I'm about to open a thread about professional chainsaw sharpening, I've seen advice that says to get it done professionally after each five home sharpenings. Anyone else hear that? Anyone know of a professional (preferably machine) sharpening service in the Khon Kaen area? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
