Christopher Hoare tree services based at Exbury Gardens near Bulieu thay have various machines for hire the best rates i have found

Sorry to revive an old thread but this could be of intrest to others, i have just got my self a 55 plate ranger which i want to fit a superwinch husky 8 winch with a winch bumper but not one of these winch box style bolt on jobbies. I have a conection who is a fantastic fabricator with access to cnc laser cutting folding etc tooling and i am looking to have a winch bumper built so if any one is intrested i will produce a batch. I have done this before i make sell reproduction VW panels and have shipped the all over the world Please i would be intrested in hearing from other ranger/mazda 2500 owners as to what features thay would be intrested in ??? I was just looking to include a pair of spot lights recovery points.

I have a long list of tip sites for chips and logs some peps happy to give a drink for logs etc i am allways happy to help an arb bro

If you have an outlet for the root ball then i'd try a jet wash to move the soil and trim the roots from the butt grind out any remaining roots.

I reckon bust your back with the felling bar would have had it sweet

I think that there under rated have used one we had it in on a large take down to shift rings was the nuts we also used it to help clean up shoveling huge amounts of airisings what part of the trailer park are you from then redneck ??

This snip-it taken from companys website Michael Hill's arborist and responsible for most of the tree care, pruning and felling. Mike har 14 års arfaring med trær og er sertifisert trepleier og treklatrer i ISA. Mike has 14 years arfaring with trees and certified tree care and treklatrer the ISA. So i did miss the point

I'm sure the rum hangover help with touchness

For the benifit of those in the room this vid has nothing to do with me. I don't have the balls to post any vids of my efforts as i dont believie that i have the luxury of being perfect myself and there is allways a some who will a different opinion ( newbie out of college "oww one handed tut tut" or the more experianced guy "those chogs should be bigger why so slow" etc) I beleive its all a matter of education let me explain, i have worked for a few different firms three where AA approved firms of good sizes and the standards of equipment education skill and quality of service is hugly different these firms all had the approved there arborist within the company but this matters little, as at the end of the day you me could do upmost best using all our skill education even advice of other arbtalk members. However someone with more insight education can rip our work to shreds i believie that unless you have the position of authority then our comments should be one's of constructive critisisums not a slaging match. We have all made mistakes i have, we are human and that is the road to better to undrstand our weaknesses and make ammends.

Do you know if i can paypal ??

Hello and welcome sounds like you have the right mentaltity, work hard play hard and this industry will reward you ways that can far outway finacial gains

Im with butler yes there is some bad practice in there: why not fell the tree ? why the lowering? why so small snaching? loads of questions. I get the impression that this forum is turning into a heckling match remeber we started somewhere. This is exactly the attitude that this industries pro's are famous for and its setting the wrong example for the newbies coming into arb/foresry trades if we had some constructive comments surly that would also be more civil after all thay maybe a member of this forum. I maybe missing the point but this bandwagon attitude it sucks bigtime:thumbdown:. I hope that if i had the balls to post a short vid of my work that someone with more experiance than myself with a true position to comment would be a little more diplomatic ????/ PS feel free to slate my spelling mistakes Rant over

Seen a setup which is like a grcs but the winch (same type was bolted to a teardrop shaped plate with a eye in it and had a strop though it chockered to a tree, the guy who put it together said the whinch cost £75 at boat jumble. Was the dogs dangles reckoned that the whole setup cost him £150:thumbup:

Check out the tank stuff driving that for 2+ days doubt it will last the trip and haypresto the track snaps ( yes i am watching and typing )
