Two handcutters needed near Barnstaple, Devon - summer holiday potential


Recommended Posts

I'm on a first thinning job just outside Barnstaple (Devon) at the moment and have a 0.6 hectare block of crappy larch that is being largely clearfelled. About 10% of the trees will be retained, but due to poor form, the decision has been made to clear the remainder.

 

I just don't have enough time to do this alongside the thinning too. I'm harvesting with the Kranman P25B processor, which is doing a great job in the thinnings, but I fear that the larch clearfell trees are a bit bendy.

 

So ideally looking for a pair of cutters to tackle the block. I reckon 7 straight days ought to clear it (14 man days). 

 

If you like surfing, there are obviously many opportunities nearby. There is space for a caravan on site and I don't mind how long it takes you to complete the work so long as it's done before the 2nd week of September.

 

Specification is super simple. 3m for everything, with some stacking required, but nothing excessive. A good hourly/day rate will be paid.
