  1. thanks for the replys guys. yeah i will definately be getting a paslode if we get many more coming in to be honest im shattered now, completely different set of muscle groups used but im pleased with how it turned out. there was so much concrete in the ground it was not funny
  2. quite often im asked if we do fencing, usually i pass it on. But recently ive been thinking "sod it, we can do that" so que the first job of john shutler tree services fencing division(me and my younger brother) weve both done a few each over the years so why not team up and do them ourselfs customers were stoked and have a load more they want doing(all of the back of a 200 quid conny topping job)
  3. john shutler to be honest i know very little about the mechanical kit i use, if i breaky i give to man who fixy.
  4. i always thought the anvil was the part the blades were on, dunno why.... im from the forest:blushing:
  5. if the anvil has been chipped, does this unbalence said anvil, if so surely turning it will have no long term benefits
  6. no worries, should be sorted later today
  7. this is all good stuff guys. just need to sort a good source for the fingerteeth now(going to try your guy monday dave) also with regards touching teeth up with a grinder and Green disk? is it worth doing
  8. im sure this has been covered allready, but what do people charge per inch for grinding cheers
  9. it has preservation mounts on the back of the device, but i made an extra one just incase
  10. its very similar to a hobbs, made by a german company. you can by them from freeworker
  11. first play with my new rigging device. pretty boring pics but the ability to lift sections level without them dropping an inch is amazing. the bits of oak on the floor are about 8 - 10ft long. edit its kinda like having your own personal small crane
  12. i remember that, wasnt it at your parent inlaws
  13. Todays field maple reduction and ivy removal, rubbish skinny anchor point right over one side of the tree made things interesting.not totally happy with the end result but was limited on what i could do. we reduced the ones on the rear of the boundary a couple of months back edit, not sure why alex is doing that odd face
  14. oh and i use zing it in both my cubes,one end with a 8 and one end with a 10
  15. so you make your life harder by wrapping it round a piece of wood instead of taking a bit of care with your gear. i have 2 throwline cubes, and to be honest i rarely have to deal with major tangles. the only time it happens is if someone doesnt put the throwbag back in its little pocket try taking a bit more care with it and you will find its far better than using a bit of wood
