  1. welcome tom. good to have you on board!
  2. i agree.......im sure you did the maths on your original figures and were happy with the profit margin thor...stick with it i say!
  3. hi baz, welcome to the site. i think the internet is the way to go regards selling, why limit yourself to one area? the forums are the best place to find out about new equipment, in fact each year the arb shows are never so fun anymore, i already know what new is going to be there!! i'd advise you to go to some shows next year, AA and APF, watch who is busy and try to see why!
  4. good to have you here puwer
  5. i dont know what the specs were but ive been on a few jobs in the past where a double row of staggere cones had to be in place
  6. if the customer isnt prepared to pay the money for proper TM better to just price it high and walk.....who needs the headache?
  7. ifs its a busy road im inclined towards subbing the TM out to a professional company.....too much liability involved these days! if its something you think you can manage yourself you will(or should if you want to be legal) have a full chapter 8 road sign kit which you'll be looking in the region of £500 for, then the extra staff to man the road. oh you said it may need a closure, in which case you'd need to divert traffic aswell. one big headache!!! you do have to contact the emergency services for sure if theres going to be any possible holdups
  8. saw lees truck yesterday for the first time, its the nicest arb truck ive yet seen.
  9. please post here any bugs you think need ironed out. ive changed the pic settings, you can post jpg pics up to 500kb now
  10. i seem to recall posting something similar when this vid was originally posted
  11. sad news, not heard of him myself
  12. stick a pic on tomorrow if you can then
  13. your best bet is to save it all up and got to a craft fair one day!
  14. pics would be good.....it might be a straight forward tree, but i'll tell you now, you wont find a responsible arborist who will tell someone with little experience how to go about doing it!! post the pics though!
  15. the rope does get in the way! u just have to learn how to safely work around it. u pretty much got the primary fundamental down, you climb to the highest safe point you can find, and preferably as central as possible that will allow you to work as much of the tree as possible. of course theres many variables involved but that could make for a very long post!
  16. i think the most stupid thing ive ever done is try to wipe the fly off my screen on blues avatar
  17. this forums is 6 days old, nothing to do with proclimber being quiet!
  18. 2 very good videos but they both lack what this one has http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ks6to4PlLdE&mode=related&search=
  19. yep me too!! i sned out and block down to size.....it all adds up at the end of the day!
  20. dont ya just hate it when people tell you just enough to make you curious?
