well done!

 

what sort of thing is covered in a forestry engingering course? is it mechanics of forestry specific equipment?

its the maintainance and repair side of things, seems very much the same as the ag one i just did, but forestry machine related :thumbup:

 

when i went up for my interview they had a few "projects" going on in the workshop, stripping down and welding up some old harvester head, along with putting a roofmount back on a massey tractor :thumbup1:

 

after doing my ND forestry, i did the ag course mainly to learn how to keep all our old kit going, then after doing the course for abit i realised how much i actually enjoy the engineering side of things, so i though i may aswell try and combine the two fields of work i live for! :thumbup:

Haha, yeah, sounds about right. You'll have the infamous "Fozzy, King of the forwarders" for some things though. Legend :thumbup:
