Just had estimate back for electric supply to site: £120k They haven't visited site nor studied any power grid maps, they are proposing to bring a new 11kv supply 800 yards from a main road when there's buildings less than half that distance away. I'll have to organise a site visit otherwise the projects dead in the water

Ht75 is a pole pruner You can fit a trimming head on but allow for replacing the complete shaft once a year at £200 as the bearings in the shaft are not made to with stand the forces involved to power a trimmer head. That said, if you keep the trimming head well lubed as I do, the shaft may last a bit longer as mine as done two years. Buying of the bay, you can bet your bottom dollar that the shaft bearings will be on their way out. Price? As little as possible because of the above. I just bought new to save the hassle and factor the cost into my trimming jobs

Cheers Charlie, good to know...the trees in the photo are actually coming out next year and I sprayed a good dose round them on purpose as I want to see if it affects them. This is the first time I have used tordon so want to see what it does and doesn't do
