I am kind of on the cusp of having much to much work for the weekend pj setup i have now booked my last free weekend in jan and looking to buy a stumpgrinder i love working for myself it makes the day job tolerable I'm having that rock and hard place feeling.

My apoligse if this has been raised before i could'nt the answers i was after so here goes. The traditional buisness setup goes something along the lines of one guy starts getting work in, gets enough to employ staff and so on hes got all insurances to pay employers liabilty vehicle etc. I was wondering if this idea would be viable or legal ???? please your advice will be greaty received what i propose is the there is a agreement by where all opreatives are hired directly by the client via an contract for example: three guys A B C are working together A generaly wins work owns the plant B is main climber C is groundie In the contract AB&C get equaly paid for the days work A who gets a finders fee / agent style perk for getting the work and providing the plant. Thats about as much as i have in my haed that i can communicate that makes sense there could be a deal where the groundie owns the tipper etc my thoughts where that each is answerable for there own risk liabilties loller taxes etc Is this overly complicated way of having a buisness setup where everone done's well and works well for there slice ????

3120 is a true legend the older ones with the extra oiler imo is better the 660 is a great saw and cant fault them but would still buy a 395 with my money.

The ms660 is a very good saw but for my money I would opt for the 395xp imo
