Dear Pete,

The eagle has landed...

Fitted new cassette and went off to play catch up with the piles of brash I have been leaving around.

It is noticeable there is more power now the blades are correctly set.

I wish to thank yourself and Green mech for excellent customer service.

I am looking forward and saving hard for our future arborist 13-23.

I knew when I had a tour of the factory when I picked up my CS100 that Green mech was a solid bet.

Thanks again

Hello there!

Cheers Stephen,

I worry too much about costs perhaps...

A question about the blades though.

Do you use any grease on the blade bolts?

I was told not to but have had a real trial removing the blades as the bolts where well dry.

I broke a the tool AND ruined a couple of the bolts which Greenmech sell for £4 each!

This Is important as when I get back to France I have to re-assemble it for the weekends job.

Cheers

Hello Chap,

I'm in Rennes, writing this on a friends dreadfull azerty keyboard so very slow going.

It was very good to meet you by the way.

You seem like a reasonable fellow whom I could learn from.

I want to get more experience in rigging and I thought that if I do get a job that requires a level of experience over mine then I might give you a call and price you in as lead climber.

I really hope you do alright over in central Brit ville but I rather think that making a living out of trees and hedges alone could be lean pickings.

Last night, we (Seb and I) priced up for the removal of a chimney, roof repair and total renovation of a small city garden in an old quarter of Rennes.

Bit of a mix but suits our skill base all round as Seb trades as 'Bricol Tout' and acts as my groundy.

I've got to put some pressure on my web master to put up some decent pages as thats a way forward too.

Stay in touch!

Regards

Chap,

May I pick your brains...

Here in perfidious France...

I often come across over mature cupressus hedges with their fronds waving in and out of lines, often they seem in contact.

I've just turned down a 2500euro job because of the proximity to the lines.

Shame, yet there will always be others.

How dangerous can this be if I am dragging the tree out of the lines?

Can it conduct down the foliage for instance...?

Cheers

Hello there,

Been very lean over Dec/Jan as per normal but now back up to 2/3 days tree/hedge work per week when not landscaping.

Have 4 weeks serious big budget landscaping ahead of us plus about 2 days per week tree work coming in on average.

Doing 'fairly well' out of Central Bretagne and getting more and more work from Pay du Rennes with my French associate where the rates are far higher.

There are 3 of us in this collaboration and it seems to be paying off.

Had a hard day today down near Chateau Neuf de Foix, no climbing, just felling, pruning fruit trees and phone line clearance.

Started V'cold and wet but by middle A'noon needed sunglasses and a hat!

Stay in touch!
