    <p>Would your excavator be good for reducing overgrown hawthorn hedge?</p>

    <p>I have about a km to reduce around some allotments. </p>

    <p>Would you travel to ilkeston derbyshire?</p>

  2. Could that be used to reduce horrible mixed hawthorn hedge?
  3. A number of the stolen saws have Sugihara pro bars.. so will stand out from the crowd...
  4. Thanks for the offers of saws and stuff. We managed today.. added up the total: £18,328 + the VAT MOST OF THE SAWS HAVE CTS INSCRIBED AND SOME OUR PHONE NUMBER List of the stolen items: ms150tc 178130024 ms150tc 178515128 200T 169990403 200T 168039273 201T 176241268 201T 176225625 201T 177642714 201T 178688615 201T 177786309 201t climbers saw 261C 1783963007 261C 178765939 261C 179014784 441W 178370 441W 175151958 441W 660W 169122220 660 178660358 880 177071057 HS86T 266937706 HS86T 281128954 BG86 BG86 BG86 BG86 KM 130 R 503145729 KM 130 R 290933016 KM 130 R 299300141 HL 95 276224517 HS 81 R 177248079 FH-KM 135 SCRUB CUTTER x2 STIHL KM HT POLE PRUNER 12´ BAR ATTACHMENT 41822000057 STIHL KM HL 135 DEGREE LONG REACH HEDGE TRIMMER x2 STIHL KM 1M CARBON SHAFT ONE METER x2 Jameson extension pole section x8 Jameson pole saw head blade x2 Jameson hook x2 Pole bags x2 climbing kits x4 Treemagineers TreeMotion 2 climbing harness x3 Tree hog harness
  5. Had the call I have been dreading... We were robbed last night - I have yet to go to the yard but initial word is all our saws (over 12) GRCS climbing kits etc..
  6. Full time post for the right candidate. Freelance work available
  7. We extended the tow bar on the grain trailer so we can tow with it mounted. We only have the black bits shown on the plate. Not sure if you can add the other bits. We are using it today to fish pops out of a pond
  8. We are using ours tomorrow fishing poplars out of a pond..
  9. Still Recruiting.. experienced climber wanted..
  10. I have been asked to provide a quote to plant an apple orchard. 2 yr old apple trees, so I guess like planting whips. 1400 trees, 36 rows 100m long at 5m apart, trees spaced @ 2m intervals so about 40 trees per row. Ground is flat & firm, will be set to grass. How many do you think a man (or woman) could plant in a day?
  11. Not realistic IMO.. 18-24k more likely round here. Maybe top end as your doing long days and in the SE
  12. 2013 DFSK 1.3 3-WAY TIPPER, PETROL, MANUAL | eBay not what you mean....
  13. All sorts of kit to make work as efficient as possible...
  14. I was supposed to do it in 2013 but broke my colar bone, did the long one in 2014.. on a cyclocross bike.. amazing ride but would have be much more fun on a mountain bike..
  15. But what about other products/ali and wooden roadways. Much simpler to install, cheaper (probably still not heard back from cellweb) and I bet as effective.. What bulk density impedes root growth? I remember seeing a figure once.. I think when looking at capping dumps..
  16. Which is fine as that is mentioned in the BS That is the issue... Who is the competent person? An engineer will tell you that the structure will withstand the load but not what that load will do to the soil and roots. What we need is some evidence based research to justify any advice we give. Cellweb provides that data so can be specified. Presumably and engineer could work out what surface area is needed to spread a load.. But a soil scientist would need to specify how that compacts a soil. The arb should have figures to say if that reduction in air space is acceptable to the root environment. I have never seen those figures..
  17. Cheers, for that. When there are multiple ways of doing things do you just recommend the best (easiest to prove) irrespective of cost. I am sure 100mm hardwood roadway over a layer of wood chip would be effective but because the roadway suppliers have not done the research like cell web it is difficult to back up the specification...
  18. Cheers, I am waiting to hear back from them. Do you know the sort of costs?
  19. The trees have TPO's there is no other way in, the canopies will be fine, we just need to protect the compaction of root zone. I am pretty sure the cellweb can distribute the weight although they have not got back to me. The ali and hard wood roadway people both say their products are fine but can't provide any evidence.
  20. Construction traffic could be 30 tons of dump truck..
  21. While I am thinking about it does anyone have experience for moling or directional drilling to get the services in?
