  1. Chap, what you say is very valid. Thank you for reminding me of this and re-enforcing a previous idea. At the moment I am researching all future options. In the past I brought arisings back to my land and burnt them come winter as there are fire restrictions in our area. Also, locals here have a tradition of using most of a tree for fuel so less to remove from site. Land use is less tightly regulated and it would be easy for me to persuade a local farmer to let me a shabby corner plot for waste storage. I have several jobs already lined up and all arisings that cannot be used will be stacked for burning later. Also, my own maths had come to a figure of around £15+ per hour for the TW125 chipper, reckon thats about right...? Thank you all for your input.
  2. Hello, Should I eventually buy a chipper, say a TW125 Petrol for around 10k. Around how much per hour should I allow for the running costs/investment etc... Regards
  3. Hello there, I recently completed a 10 week course at Merrist Wood and will return to France shortly to continue working in landscape maintainance. I'm a little mature (39) for full time tree work but with my new skills I am confident that I can take on many small to medium tree jobs with my 2 collaborators which will greatly add to our turnover. I already have a basic climbing kit, rope, harness etc but should like to ask the honourable members of this forum before I visit Honey Bros' as to what additional equipment would be usefull/essential. Thanks in advance Le Jardinier Anglais de Bretagne
  4. Steve, Newby here posted about my recent work experiences in France and they have also evaporated. I am too tired to post them again...
  5. Hello, I finished my 10 week tree surgery for craftsmen in May 2008. I worked in France as a climber for a landscape architect firm for 2 months before traveling to N.Zealand to obtain further experiences in land and forest management. I'm now back in the Portsmouth area and looking for any position full or part-time in arboriculture. Any leads or offers I would be gratefull. Stuart Lee
