Sam just being practical but why not get a weekend or twoย in with the lads before you buy all this new kit. Just make sure you all get on and enjoy the work (get paid)ย ย

I personally preferย to use a short Irwin toolbox type saw than silky /Stihl types .cuts faster and only about ยฃ6 so I could get ten of those for the price of a high end pruning saw.as already suggested Iโ€™d hold back before buying loads of gear .from my own experiences opportunities in this sector seem limited on the island and those which offer some occasional/ part timeย work are onlyย basic labour rates (minimum wage )some of the guys I do occasional days withย ย get a lot of there work fromย the mainland and spend a few weeks/ months there at a time .it might be wiser to get basic screwfix ppe to begin withย

Bit dear there - cheaper are frjones but 270mm is prob better choice for shorter stature if itโ€™s strapped to your leg or hanging from belt. Iโ€™m 5ft 8โ€ and the 330mm in a sawpod is a tad too long for me

Thatโ€™s great thank you ๐Ÿ™‚ it just shows you how much money I would of wasted on incorrect kit ๐Ÿ˜ฌ I am so glad I did not order that today.ย

I guess your right Jack ๐Ÿ™‚ Iโ€™m just not sure how people feel about sharing their tools and donโ€™t want to pee anyone off on my first day turning up with nothing ๐Ÿ˜ฌ at least I have learned from Arbtalk aboutย the best tools should I decide to invest more money. Lots to learn !ย
