  1. You're working in some pretty tight spots later Benn. Loved the job going through the kitchen
  2. You even get free beer?
  3. Sure you can. Various ways of doing that. All of them a bit of a faff though
  4. Quick answer, no it should never be beneath the gob.
  5. Lush day today. Craning out big sycamores. All done using Double quick Rope Technique...smooth, fluid, quick climbing with zero faff
  6. hahaha crane job on tomorrow, might break out the 3 strand for that
  7. Nice one, let us know how you get on with it please
  8. I switched back to Ddrt for the last 30 minutes of todays job, first time in about 5 weeks. It was amazing!!!!!
  9. Whats the reach on the grab? The picture makes it look like the lorry is parked miles away
  10. Youtube comments make me die sometimes....latest one on this video, apparently its a fake
  11. Ok, so what about when the limb doesn't need any wraps at all, it ends up just hanging there with too much friction to drop.
  12. Vermeer BC190XL Vermeer UK are pleased to announce our new BC190XL chipper The New BC190XL, is a new chipper from the ground up, aimed at the utility and contractor market, where strength and build quality are essential requirements. A Vermeer machine is built to be tough and rugged from day 1. Outstanding performance The BC190XL has an exceptionally large class leading in feed (200mm by 300mm). With very large off set rollers, the BC190XL is easy to feed, whether you are feeding very small material to large awkward branches. Couple that to a heavy weight disc, and the horse power to drive it as well. 48 HP T4 Kubota engine. With Vermeer Intelligent Smart Feed, helps keep productivity high on this machine. Operation and serviceability is a major design feature With a simple push button start and automatic banded belt tensioner, life is easy from day one. Large accessible doors to the service area. Remote greasing of the large oversized bearings. 4 double sided blades, which are easy to change. The BC190XL is tough and rugged with unparalleled performance. But weighing in at just 1.450kg. The BC190XL is built to perform and work, combined with a 3 year warranty and Vermeer backup - you can have peace of mind with your new investment.
  13. Profit doesn't come into it. The majority of expenditures will likely be wage bills, no vat there. when I said expenditure before, I meant vat applicable expenditure.
  14. I can't really see how these can be much use in general rigging. You are going to be rigging different size pieces that need differing amounts of friction, and your friction device is going to be out of reach most of the time. Sorry, I don't get it.
  15. Surely that can only balance things out if your monthly expenditures are about 50% of your income. Good way to go broke
  16. I should have read the title better really shouldn't I
  17. I can picture you racing to the site when you heard with sirens wailing
  18. Lovely day here, weather was perfect. Down to tshirt but not too warm
  19. Past couple years have pretty much been consistently busy all year round for the companies I sub to
