Good luck to him, at least he’s not a pikey.  We all start somewhere.

Stumps ground from £50 gets the owner on the phone. The quote will be £150 minimum by the time he pops past.

I started with a Kangoo, wee chippette and trailer.

 If he is hungry for work, he'll be moving his kit on before long and asking on here about tippers and road tows.

I started with a Chinese Alaskan and now Ive got a 64" Panther, Mobile Sawmill, Stump Grinder, Mobile Processor and a Road tow Log Splitter. Its certainly an addictive hobby.  

 

My business model differs from the guy in question though. I charge more than most and cherry pick what I want.

At least he’s having a go out there, got a van and a little chipper, yes he’s probably undercutting the competition, but no doubt we all did when we first started out on that long and winding road.

That's not it at all, it's just that the chip kept blowing off the roof when he drove away.

You can only blast so much chip behind their garage/fence/bushes before they notice. 🤷🏻‍♂️
