  1. Huh you didn't get that enthusiastic the other day when i was flopping huge lumps out of that scots pine !
  2. Don't cut your prices thin to win the contract, if anything double them ! Main pitfall with commercial stuff is the invoice periods. Can you stomach doing three weeks work and not getting paid for 3 months as is often the case. You dictate the invoice terms not them.
  3. You can pour your own drink next turn !
  4. Anyway back on track people ! Enter Jay you won't regret it :icon14:
  5. No way does myself, Steve and the word 'head' belong in the same sentance ! Besides I am overweight and un-fit
  6. Hi and welcome, I was in the same postion as yourself a couple of years ago when i made the transtion to the latest techniques. I jumped in at the deep end with a treemagic but i would suggest you try the Komet harness with a seat. It is a compromise between what your used to and has a sliding bridge which means you can twist around without stressing your back.
  7. Who's that strange looking bloke in you avatar Anna ?
  8. Well ya know those that can lol that was such a funny day !
  9. Yeah but everyone knows that's photo shopped Butch :wave:
  10. Depends on the tree and condtions / circumstances. I do whatever i can to get the job done quickest and safest.
  11. Well i don't know about that !!
  12. Ditto, i wouldn't bother with hinges steve as stuff gets caught on them and they only get broken.
  13. No comment to either of those posts !
  14. He obviously doesn't think much of his own work if he's prepared to burn it !

    ArbDogs? Pics!

    My old one was fine with other dogs, this one is very exicitable but that's just because he's a pup. They can be very stubborn dogs so let yours know who's boss at all times ! Never give them anything without making them work for it i.e. sit for a treat etc. Once all that is drummed in they are fine. My last one was a dog and we had his knackers off it made no difference whatsoever to him temprement.

  17. No, in several years of Mog running the worst i've done is drop it through a man hole cover oops !
  18. Farnham Stuart Compton Lane, and no worries mate.
  19. I agree but we had our reasons.
  20. Correction, if we STILL had our timber trailer yes we would have got it finished in one day
  21. Luckily being the super arb team we are we conquered once again
  22. Tip of the day - Don't hire contract climbers !!
