  1. Past hour
  2. Yep all contractors. Save yourself the money, I cancelled my fleet breakdown cover and pay to just get the vehicles relayed, so far I’m cash positive! All my vehicles are fairly new and well maintained though.
  3. Indeed. Alone on the Wall is a brilliant book.
  4. Today
  5. having used the new forst chippers, i can only say that i have experienced nothing but issues with them. the firm i work for brought quite a few brand new however they are not very reliable or durable machines unfortunately timber wolf is the way to go.
  6. The amount I saw in West Sussex when I was back for Christmas was astonishing. All the Carlos Fandango special models as well, snorkelled up for the rainforest.
  7. The prize is a banana 🙂
  8. Ah . Thanks . I am a shite speller 😀
  9. Hi, apart from being an insecticide it's other purpose is as an anti fungal agent and I use it to paint on boards that are to be stickered for much time seasoning to prevent blue staining on the grain particularly in softwoods like Pine, Spruce and Larch, but anything really. I really only mill wood for myself when the opportunity arises and I've got a few stacks of various woods that I can dig into when needed, but there's nothing worse taking a slab out of a stack that's been sitting for years to find that it's all blue stained specially up here in wet Northwest. Also Borax is the main component in woodworm and dry rot treatments, plus many other industrial uses.
  10. @Pete Mctree thanks. Thats Bob. The go to man for crane removals in Cumbria. He spends a lot of time doing tree work. He good and really nice.

  14. Sad to hear that, usually after 21 days or so you can do a claim. Have they rejected it? Do you still use them?
  15. Yesterday
  16. Search for it on here. Discussed within the last year. The conclusion I came to was that it's handy like a Hobbs for pre-tension (and handier because it's smaller and cheaper) but a lift any longer than a foot ot two with the cleat method in the video will be a pain because rope will pile up on the drum. On Monday, I'm collecting the backplate for the pre-production prototype of something better. dawinchi site:arbtalk.co.uk because the actual site search function isn't great.
  17. QE is bullish for both gold and crypto.
  18. Doh I see now, you cleaned the red paint and put your own handle. So it's probably a more recent one if it is Bulldog. I still like it.

  20. Location would be useful
  21. Interesting, thank you.
  22. I had a look a while back and would still consider for larger clearance works on a 8t+ excavator but for domestic stuff it doesn’t suit, primarily because you can remove the stumps but chasing lateral roots would be impossible. If it’s going on anything less than perfectly flat ground I feel it would be damaging on an avant or similar carrier over time (lateral stresses). We once thought putting a log splitting cone on a Vermeer would work great, which I feel is the same principle - the reality was it didn’t work and we consistently sheered fixing bolts (we tried free swinging, couldn’t get the weight in the log before it slipped), we were going to eventually damage the arms so scrapped it.
  23. Avoid anything caustic - very common in ultrasonic cleaning fluids. It will turn cast alu a nasty black colour.
  24. Another day, another handle.
  25. Shudders..
  26. Vertigo Trees Ltd has an opening for an experienced climber. Based in Squamish, BC, working from Vancouver up to Whistler. Small company, decent kit, mostly good jobs, cracking work sites! Plenty of time to go skiing, biking, rock climbing, whatever outdoor pursuit floats your boat. You will need the legal right to work in Canada, that probably means a working holiday Visa, obtained via the IEC program. Pay range, $28-$45 Cad$ per hour, 25-40hrs a week. You might even find a bear in a tree onsite!
