  1. €1200 Crane €400 Container €1200 Big Chipper €960 Wages for two men for two days Alot of firms might put €6000 on that. I can go in cheaper because I own a crane fed chipper and wont need three men on that job. Just me and a groundy.
  2. How much would you charge for felling and removing that? Over here it would be about 50k plus vat. I would crane it down, timber driven off on day one. Then chip into a 30 yard skip on day two.
  3. Twat should have been around in the late 90s...
  4. You can weed most of those type of clients out at the initial contact. They tend to be either : Wanting to know how much it costs to cut down a Tree? Or "I have a few things I was thinking about having someone do." Get them to send pictures, price high and forget them.
  5. We saw all this before from 2008 to about 2010. Its just a fact that when people feel the pinch the last thing they spend money on are their Trees.
  6. I am going to invest some money in companies manufacturing kamakazi drones and loitering munitions. This seems to be where the smart money will be in the future. It looks like the days of Armour and artillery being the gods of the battlefield are over. I was lucky at the start of the last gulf war and invested some money in Honywell and GD.
  7. That weirdo " whistling diesel" makes bank from his destruction of luxury cars etc. I looks like his market is the 8-14 year old boy though.
  8. How much income would 159k subscribers generate?
  9. Thanks Steve! Didnt have much of a gob in it either.
  10. Can someone please post the new video's on here? For the non facebook users ?
  11. My advice would be to finnish your course and then go to Norway of Sweden to work for a summer or two. Dip your toe in to working abroad instead of punting for a full ticket. Then if you still fancey Aus, then you will/should be experianced enough to be useful and attract a decent wage. Good for you that you are looking to work abroad. That sayes alot.
  12. The Sami people had their claim of the windfarm being illegle upheld by the courts. The Windmills should have been torn down as ordered by the court. Instead nothing has been done. The wind farm is in an important winter grazing area for Reindeer. Thats what its about.

    Finland

    This is a real thing over there. Pantsdrunk - Wikipedia EN.M.WIKIPEDIA.ORG
  14. I wouldnt bother selling them, you will loose to much due to taxus. Ba-doom-swish!
  15. Similar to Jacinda Arden.
  16. MS400 gets my vote. Good all round saw.
  17. Ja! Ich lieben Gro§e holtz!
  18. Because you live in a mobile home, can't you simply "Van-ish?". I'll get my Coat.
  19. Depends on the water temperature. Around here if you drown and sink past 100m thats it. The water is so cold the crustations eat up the corpse before any gas can form that would usually bring a body to the surface. Totally nothing but bones after a week.

    Ford v Chevy

    I like Willy's.
  21. ...
  22. Holds more chip in the kerf. I learned it in the states, it makes a noticable difference on softwood.
  23. If you carefully take off the topwood behind the rear sight and post pictures of the stampings on the barrel and Knox form I might be able to tell you quite a bit. Emphasis on the carefully.
  24. Sure. Its the same in Norway,the French and the Norwegians both used "captured" arms post WW2 so that Rifle could have been secreted there by anyone for any number of reasons.Although since it retains its bolt I would guess that who ever put it there intended to use it at a later date. Give the left hand side of the receiver ring and the action a good scrub.Might find some interesting markings. I but the Stock and some ammo are not too far away either.
  25. Scrape the rust off with a peice of copper or alloy and a squirt of WD40.
