  1. Can you use left and right pantins at the same time? Would it make life easier?
  2. Around 450-600. or contract lift 1200-1400
  3. Don't poison them! they could poison the neighbouring poplars by root graft.
  4. Try the Knut knot with a hitch climber. You will get use to it pretty fast. Oh and a pair of nice grippy gloves like to towa active from fr Jones.
  5. WINNER! They came up with the goods. They said they would get one from the states, anyway, it arrived this morning. Thank you Fiskars!
  6. £380 for a grab lorry (london prices) should do it in 1 load (up to 16t)
  7. I've been going through loads of different gloves but these are the dogs to climb with Towa Activegrip Advance gloves | F R Jones and Son Especially for gripping the rope when using the hitch climber setup As demonstrated here 8-) [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TsMcf29_HKk]hitch climber set up - YouTube[/ame]
  8. Considering how many large trees there are in London it's not often that this happens, relatively speaking.
  9. Had my first day on the 150. Oh my god! This is amazing. It feels like having a powered silly in you hand. You can reach out really far without straining. Easy start, really quiet It's so light and the bar is really narrow. £370-odd from jonesie's with next day delivery. Serious bargain. highly recommend. I remember buying a toy stihl saw for my son when he was young. This isn't much bigger
  10. And that would be where.....
  11. Someone I know employs all his guys through an employment agency. He pays the agency £14 per person per week and they deal with Everything. Means they are all one step away from his company.
  12. Wasnt there a Rupert there as well. Sheila. Now she was a bit of a dark horse
  13. Just received my throwpod (I brought it from Skyland.. special price with a Husky gift bag at the moment!!) also brought a Big Shot ( thank you Honey Brothers, I brought that too) and we are going to test them on some big ar*e planes (30m) on monday. I find that when we don't get the throw line up we are wasting time (some times 15-20 minutes, yes I am that bad) which wastes loads of money with people sitting around. So if these items save time that's money in your pocket then everything pays for itself then makes you more money. It's going to be in the arsenal for a long time. It's like the Arbor Trolly incredible piece of kit that just keeps giving! Will report back on monday!
  14. Keep up slack. I linked that back in post#15
  15. I'm completing the other half of something like that on Friday. It's a TPO tree (no permission) that got butchered by some subbies for my local council's contractors doing a bit on the side. You could probably work out who did it with a little bit of detective work. Funny how I seem to be picking up the pieces of these people.
  16. Plus you get 10% off for being a fab artalker 8-)
  17. I reckon if the sender put down the value as $50 it would help
  18. Price..... $185 incl delivery to the uk with rope
  19. Here you go... It seems to roll then lift the log 8-) Products for the category: Forestry equipment
  20. The Knut Knot Rocks! with a couple of fishermans (friend) knots
  21. Red with black wheels.. I like it!
