Have you recently replaced or refilled it bill?

Looks great , how long did it take and what equipment did you use to create ? I will be putting in planning for one one soon so just a few hints would help.

I would of thought almost definitely China ,being a Zama carb.

‘The Price of Timber’ WWW.BUTLERSHERBORN.CO.UK Prices for clearfells of good quality softwood are £70 standing and have crept above this for easily accessible parcels with high saw log content. The demand for pallet wood and chipwood thinning Price of standing timber !! I was trying to find a link to where I had read of a parcel going for £90 a tonne standing in keilder but can’t find it now.

Botex 360 should from memory have brackets to mount a chipper.

After owning a japa 700 I would take this any day , we did run a 280 before upgrading again to a bigger posch and in comparison are much more durable to the japa that just buckled . Posch Spaltfix 280 Fire wood processor, Excellent condition, Saw bench, Logs ROVER.EBAY.COM For sale is a very tidy Posch Spaltfix 280 firewood processor. Still has paint in the chamber and on the splitter. Excellent condition. Recently been serviced by Wilson's and not used since ,so is ready to go.

Second hand Posche 280’s for around 6k may be worth a look, far better built than most small processors if you plan on doing a lot of wood.

You could argue though that if Rich American dynasties hadn’t invested heavily in the nazis and German rearmament would they of been able to start the war in the first place ? How Bush's grandfather helped Hitler's rise to power | World news | The Guardian WWW.GOOGLE.CO.UK Rumours of a link between the US first family and the Nazi war machine have circulated for decades. Now the Guardian can reveal how repercussions of events that culminated in action under the Trading with the Enemy Act are still being felt by today's president. Or the panzers role across Europe without the help of Americans with synthetic fuel as Germany had no fuel reserves at all Germany’s synthetic fuel industry, 1927–1945 LINK.SPRINGER.COM Germany has virtually no petroleum deposits. Prior to the twentieth century this was not a serious problem because Germany possessed abundant coal reserves. Coal provided for commercial and home...

My gripes with rings are that if the ropes are not clean it wears them very quickly and you can’t unlike a safe bloc minimalise the shock loading by pushing the block in to the scarf ...pulleys and rings drop .. pulleys make lifting easy

Had a job come in this week with some hat racked trees that we had already priced the whole job for ... for entertaining dealing with some one else’s waste the price has doubled to clear it up.

Spot on with the sayings mate.. Really though Mick I don’t give a Fuck any more for doing folk favours , as you know it costs a lot to have nice kit to do a job efficiently and I’ve seen yours ....and I’d rather chase the work where it’s appreciated than listen to some prick tell me what I’m worth.

Double your price, you owe him nothing !

As Martin says.

Haha [emoji23]

Thanks , should of googled heat shrink instead of rope marking ! Never mind ...

They have sold out ... can’t find any thing similar on any other sites

Big fan of the safe bloc , but will still use a pulley for most dismantles , rarely use rings unless it’s a one off top on a spar or something ,just don’t really see the point in them for day to day rigging ... I was probably still using topping strops until 15 years back along with natural crotch rigging and the revaluation of adding a isc block changed a lot of my larger rigging so it just feels a step back for rigging.

Any one point me in the direction of a marking system preferably heat shrink that will fit large rigging ropes, can only find climbing ones by stein and Beal with the usual searches.

Just a scaled down version of the 3001 , but still meaty enough for take downs in uk.

Also kind of brings the point home that we don’t need two ropes just get the idiots out of this industry who can’t maintain and use faulty incorrect gear endangering there own lives and others.

RC 2000 is almost as good as a bollard and nice and easy to set up , maybe a little cheaper than the p500 ,I would definitely take one over a port a wrap for serious rigging. You definitely can’t go wrong with the rc2001 for a fixed bollard . you have the choice of changing to rubber mounts , I’ve rigged out some very big trees and lumps with them and it was my go to device before I got a Hobbs. The pinnacle of lowering is the GCRS but it’s expensive and not as robust as the hobbs , well in my hands any way...

I do prefer the isc locking over the dmm , maybe not as smooth but I trust it more, once it’s in its in, once or twice I have had the dmm open...but the dmm is far sexier and takes a lot more KN so I would not hesitate to replace with another, I just really check over them once set and I’ve not had an issue.

Haha , or you can slang that to show is your Pauline then .... Pauline Fowler = big hairy growler.

If starting from scratch a Transit and chipper will see through most jobs and just make you more money than any other set up , to be honest I would probably stick with that and hire in any thing else as it’s a never ending slippery slope with the exception of a 4x4 to price work and use the chipper off road ,once you have made a bit more then you are on too the endless slippery slope in to grinders,tractors , loaders, tracked chippers ,unimogs ,big F off Chipper’s ,diggers and any thing else I missed that will rinse you of any cash and keep you in the bank managers pocket but will always be keep you thinking if I had that one last tool life would be easier and I’ll make more money [emoji23]
