  1. few pics from this mornings job, co-dominant willow with a crack at the bottom...it was a bit windy today but it didnt appear to be opening too badly.....wouldnt have wanted to rig off it though
  2. stihl do a really good course but its very limited numbers and from what i can gather available only to dealers......if you're very chummy with your nearest stihl dealer it might be worth having a word!
  3. not thought about just finding a better company to work for? if i a climber with 10 years experience is working for £59 then more fool him IMO....of course an employer is going to take advantage of that!
  4. i guess theyre will be something on it that says, not sure. wouldnt bother repairing it if it aint broke!
  5. actually i deleted the pic prior to your post making your following post senseless, so that went too:eviltongue:
  6. you'll never make enough money to run a business splitting it 2 ways let alone 3 ways..i assume thats what you meant when you said you were going laone? or are you all starting your own businesses?
  7. i rarely rope off unless i have to however in the past ive roped off large just to avoid having to strip ivy
  8. did it cause you much of a problem?
  9. theres always stuff in the papers about people getting caught out by their bosses on facebook....to the point that some bosses actually use it to check up on their staff
  10. no...sorry im a very fussy person.....i have a kinda idea what i want but dont know what i want if that makes sense think something along the lines of the sherrill cartoons the actual arbtalk logo itself is going to be a different thing altogether....keep watching for next months comp mathew!
  11. my saws in the shop at the moment with carb issues and i had a very interesting chat with the mechanic. its the S61D carbs with the issue but stihl have produced a remedy for the problem. they need a pump piston kit fitted, part number 11291209701, this well rectify any probs and only costs 7.31+vat for the part.....some places might try and fit a new carb instead at the cost of around £60 plus labour
  12. cool...well look out for next months competition, your talents might come in handy for ya
  13. im looking for something slightly humorous
  14. not just yet mate...still not quite got it in my head what i want
  15. i was thinking more along the lines of a meat tenderizer
  16. yours does look too uniform in all honesty carl, but well done anyway, i have never had a go at that yet so have nothing to offer
  17. did you sell this to the customer or was it something they had seen and asked for?
  18. thanks dagmar...i wonder if theres any more recent study on this, beings as that paper is 16-17 years old? good find all the same though. in your work do you come across many fruit trees with variegated leaves and is the fruit production as high?
  19. sounds cool.....and in theory it should draw big crowds, will be interesting to see if it does or not
  20. they're not uncommon to find, you'd probably want to go to more of a tool hardware shop than the likes of b&q though. i think i saw some teng stuff in halfords once come to think of it
