  1. Cheers, we currently run our splitter of the tractor but would be better if it was stand alone, as the tractor could then do other stuff!
  2. One for sale on the ebay... And there was a timberwolf on a landrover a few years back. Wood chipper shredder vehicle mounted Green Mech | eBay
  3. We tried a fingerbar hedge trimmer on a compact tractor last year, had it for 3 days on a variety of hedges but it took longer then doing it by hand.
  4. Are you leading a fungal foray Tony?
  5. I can't make it but sending two of the apprentices..
  6. Cheers to those who liked my page! Once you get to 30 it's a bit of an anticlimax... The stats are not that interesting!
  7. I'll do yours if you do mine.. I only need 5 more! Canopy Tree Services | Facebook
  8. Another one. Needs the benny hill music! Canopy Tree Services | Facebook
  9. Surely a chipper is "humane," it's going to be pretty instant..
  10. It's my first go at the time lapse. I quite pleased with the result. I think I need to increase the number of shots per min and a bigger garden so I can get the camera further back would help! Reducing a hedge in Castle Donington:
  11. That's what I was leaning to. Thanks!
  12. Pic's might be helpful!
  13. Saw this while surveying a tree for the environment agency. I reckon it would make a good arb truck. Pig ugly..
  14. Brought an old SWB colarado earlier in the year, it's a 2000, cost less then £3K. Try and buy a 90 for that. It is the 3l turbo diesel. Bit thirsty 25-28mpgs, but very comfortable and will happily pull our 2.2ton chipper.
  15. We were always happy with them, untill they quoted us silly. They still do our trucks but that may change. It was nice to have a local office to call and a named advisor. They paid out when the saws were knicked too.
  16. NFU didn't even tell us when they added a height restriction to our policy. We would have just paid it without reading it as we'd been with them for 5 years. Luckily they had also increased the cost by about £800, and noticed it when comparing policies!! They did say they would change it but we found a cheaper policy from one of the arbtalk adds!
  17. Where abouts are you and what are your rates?
  18. Stick up some pics for us to see
  19. I have two citizen eco drives, the first a diving one I wore day and night for 10 years. Including climbing and diving. First one was £250 odd quid but the second only £60. I got another ecodrive because I wanted a lighter simpler watch with no batteries. The misses wouldn't buy it for me as it came from argos! She brought me a expensive seiko but it weighed a ton, so I sent it back! Buy Citizen Men's Eco-Drive Watch at Argos.co.uk - Your Online Shop for Men's sports watches.
  20. Has any one done: ISO14000 ISO 14001 ISO 9001 What's involved? What does it cost? How long does it take? It's a prerequisite for a tender?
  21. If they do a day course I'd be interested for 5 guys.
