  1. Good luck with doing the takedown and the the advice of getting a well recommended contract climber to work together with you is sound, even though it's a straightforward removal. May reduce your margin, but worth every penny and you will learn a lot. Get the timber back your end - as a firewood bonus eventually. Don't overlook the public access on the site. If your price is more than £975 on Dartmoor, I doubt very much you will get the job. I don't expect you are vat reg. so that gives you an edge possibly.
  2. When do expect your friend to be posting on the Forum?
  3. Thanks, just arrived here.
  4. Oh thanks, i'll try them again as it has been a while.
  5. Their prices are very high!
  6. That would be great - thanks.
  7. If u tried to PM to me previously - apologies, my inbox has been full for a while - sorted now. Thanks
  8. Wow £3! - Still looking for a bulk supplier 104 to start with - no luck as yet.
  9. Most firms with curtainsiders stack 2 high, 5-600 + vat haulage.
  10. Head towards Land's End and you will pass us!
  11. Ah - That's why people are asking for a larger inbox! Just sorted it. Sorry hundreds of miles away. Where did you find those stillages - sound good value?
  12. Does anyone know the French company in Derbyshire that has used IBC tanks? Thanks
  13. Thanks, may improve price for bulk.
  14. Bed of Arctic is 16 metres x 2.5 metres stacked 2 high.
  15. That's what they loaded on last time - sorry I did not unload them to see. I'll post when others arrive.
  16. The traditional Advent Calendars appeared for the children as well the mum tonight - looked to contain lovely chocolate treats - where's mine?
  17. I love all that as well!
  18. 10-12 with non-toxic use bottle. Can take 52 every 6 weeks. Thanks
  19. Avoid the pressure, do your own thing and don't behave like the masses who have been conditioned to behave in a certain way without even realising it.
  20. Yes, those little faces is a sight to behold !
  21. Agreed, but not at competitive prices that you or I would like to pay. Thanks for posting.
  22. With bottle if non toxic use Plastic or metal Sides don't mind - mesh is nice tap or no tap Thanks
  23. On a large job we get one person who keeps the saws touched up all the time alongside all the other jobs such as re-fuelling etc. Agree about perfecting your sharpening skills - once learnt, never forgotten We plan never to let saws get dull - very cost effective and have spare saws onsite so no downtime. A forestry cutter with 30yrs experience taught me and tapped all the cutters. Used to use a rigid back Stihl guide - but all freehand now using a Stihl heavy duty log vice on the job. Use every millimetre on every chain. Bought an Oregon chain breaker and rivet spinner at 100ish each and coils of chain. Never looked back. Good luck.
  24. Could anyone advise where I can get 3 arctic loads each of 52 IBC crates and the likely price? I can send an Arctic to collect.
  25. I tend to avoid recognising Christmas until December starts. Then kindly daughter preps the present requirement for the other 1/2, 90% through amazon and an hour and half in local town - all sorted. Start the festivities about a week or so before the big day and plan to avoid being busy during the last week before. Christmas is what you make it - do different things, break the routine, take a break and spread it out. Those with no children - things are going to be different of course. Chrismas means different things to different people. Don't forget the workers. I intend to have the best time with my family that I can!
