what about the reinforced perspex that use on bus shelters ect thats what i use and when we had pickup done at work they calculated weights and that was lightest and strongest your more than welcome to have a look it was built by big bodywork specialists and all done with weight in mind headboard is a formed thin ali to give good strength to weight

not aimed at you or anyone was a general point spreadsheets with headers and footers and all that stuff are not everyones cup off tea so how much to cut my tree and trim my wifes bush and tidy the conifer

is that a proper steam cleaner or a jet wash steam cleaner would be a bit hot and the problem with jet washers as well are they fire the crud in to the rope for what it costs proper rope cleaner stuff has got to be the best for ropes and last stuff i got was only £6 from landmark and will do loads of washes I also got the weaver rope wash bag from them and washing machine for £10 from local paper

yes there are guidelines they do give you examples of blanks there is certain info that should be include and that would be taught on the course you think things have changed since 94/95 but not the gear well my gear certainly has no 3 strand or screwgates for me forms for loler will vary from person to person and from how in depth they do there stuff mine certainly has evolved over the years to try to make it more comprehensive but yet simple and easy to understand for everyone and how computer literate or illiterate some folk are and i am not disputing the lengh of the course but they need several years of industry experience to go on the course and i know of several that after passing the EXAM have decided that they are not competent to assess kit p.s the exam is very hard and indepth with a high standard and failure rate

I can see where your coming from dave but as always it is awkward till you do see the stuff rigging is worse as finding all SWL ect for some of the equipment brought and marking all ropes crabs ect and logging it all takes ages sometimes how much would you charge me to take down the sycamore tree in my garden its not very big and how much to trim and reduce my conifers would be interested in who would be cheapest then
-
yes my forms are made up by myself but there is a lot of info that need to be included such as safety factors who,s kit it is where inspection carried out dates of previos inspections this inspection and next inspection safe to use ect who inspected by and so on

do you really think you can do it in half an hour most kits take me several hours but if you brought a kit all marked all crabs cleaned and not sticking all info on a spreadsheet that i could copy and paste onto a proper form then it would be a pleasure to do I try to be realistic about what i charge cheapest kit is £45 then its up to you if you keep upto date records look after your kit log all new kit and mark it all up and keep crabs cleaned and obviosly it also depends on how much stuff you send for inspection

it is all down to the chain rather than the saw ie i use stihl chain on husq saws problem with using the roller guide on stihl chain is the top angle will be wrong.... oregon who make roller guides have a 10 degree drop on the back where as still is flat at 90 degrees to the bar so all will be wrong most oregon is 30 degrees also also if using 3/8 chain the file size is different between oregon and stihl so again roller no good hope that makes sense

i got the yorkshire with back boiler and although i live about 1.5miles from the factory and shop i saved nearly £500 getting off net from wales and even the delivery could not believe it as it did come all the way from wales

i am sure its interesting if you understand it:001_tt1: i got the gist but i wish i understood more but i do think more thought should be given to how we could enhance nature to stop the destruction to the enviroment

i believe chargehand is right which works out at approx 22k and a bit that post has been sorted with single status so should be as advertised other 2 posts are still been sorted out under single status and at the mo are approx 19k a bit over i think but i am told if you send for details it explains it
