Looking real smart Dave, might need a few tweeks but it looks like you're onto a winner there! If i could make a comment too, i think the little bit of angle welded on the knife might fowl the logs, but guess you'll find out on a test run and it wont be difficult to alter later:thumbup1:

Always! Mine are the perfect height for topping birch:001_tt2:

Are you saying its possible to get rid of the gaps? Perhaps they should not be charged for:confused1: Perhaps we have another variable to the "load":001_rolleyes:

Ok, here you go, its taken a while to track down again, but if anyone wants the Australian pump (high output) for the MS660, this is the part Number; 1122 640 3201 You should get change out of £40 inc vat.

Josh, im not being funny, but is it just the pot and piston thats shot on your saw? That thing should be a nice little saw when its running right:thumbup1:
-
Nice one Dave, is there any particular reason why your pallets are up off the ground?

At a rough guess 1m x 1m x 1m Jonny:001_tt2:

Many thanks for that David, thats the type of thing the client wanted to put up. One of the objectives of this exercise is to raise the puplics awareness. Hopefully, due to the location it will create a lot of interest, and in time may become a more common practice. Ive also taken on board the comments such as height, and perhaps some fracture pruning in the future in place of so many coronets. As you guessed, it was our first attempt, so with some luck, we should get better! I shall now go onto the massive task as you requested, and translate all info to Darren! Well i'll try!

No worries about liability risks as the client is happy to remove it on the grounds of safety if it becomes an issue. The stem will be carefully monitored by myself on a regular basis.

I would like to add that this job resulted from the floods of 2007 where this frontage was under water for several weeks. The works took three days to complete with just two of us mainly on site, and Frank did his usual blinding climbing performance! Over an 80 meter stretch we had to remove 8 semi mature sycamores, many holly trees and several shrubs. This obviously has made a massive impact on the approach to the hotel and the monolith idea was partly to with "trying to leave something standing"! This particular stem being the widest girthed tree.

Cheers for that David, I would appreciate your comments or criticism:thumbup1:

Just thought it was a bit of a shame, the guy was wanting to sell a machine and that got a little lost along the way! Lol!
-
Real nice. I wasnt too sure how public it was. I can see its a lovely park setting, but nowadays if people see timber on the floor like that they think its free firewood!
-
Real nice Sean, more realistic than mine! Is the dead wood on the floor likely to stay there too?
-
So, what about the chipper? Are you interested enough about it to NEED the number? There has been 20 posts on this thread and only Matty's to do with the machine. Talk about a derail!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So where is Dr Humphries tonight?

:scared1: To be honest, the job went really well, FRANK climbed all that was needed and there were no incidents, nothing broken but it was COLD! When it came to the monolith, for some strange reason i volunteered to do the coronets, and young frank, who i think wanted to see the big lad in a harness, agreed! Unfortunately, as i got more of the coronets done, my thoughts wavered from the job in hand, and i ended up with a fear of spiking out! The sight of all those spikey bits of dead wood protruding towards me, while legs akimbo left me with a bit of a cold sweat
