  1. You was busy busy busy! Don't worry I warmed mattys hands up with a bit a bit bigger than he thought it was and I thought Ben did a good job for his 1st experience of rigging.
  2. That'd be a step up in chipping performance!
  3. No that was my expensive silver bull rigging bag that I'd minutes before told them to shift and hadn't realised the hadn't. Not to worry it took it and survived
  4. Don't know will go watch and check, don't think I squished 1 this time...
  5. Like the tune, nothing like opening a new box of shiny toys and getting into the trees to play with them,. So how you getting on with the H C?
  6. Think it's about time you look for a newer chipper bud, the little yellow wasp seems to be giving you continues grief these days! You possibly be able to use a newer box of a timberwolf 150 as pritty much the same but could be big ££££ unfortunately.
  7. Congratulations to both you and your wife, take good care of them all as that's you sorted for care when your old and decrepid. How many is that now?
  8. Big sycamore with dryads saddle, the centre section was sosoft you could punch it and leave knuckle imprints, mature I know! Ground level not a mark in the stump, perfectly white but from 8ft up till the crown brake just sponge inside. All off for habitat in some other section of the estate away from the main grounds.
  9. What? I finish it in 3days, couldn't put it down. I'm the same Mathew, it's a subject that fascinates but scares me in equal measure, what world will our children grow old in and if not them than there children will experience grate change of some form I'm sure!
  10. No it just means you can pack it full from front to back. And when it's full pack in some more
  11. Yes, excellent book with some very interesting stuff. Fiction I know but with a worrying truth behind it. Excellent twist to the ending with the ultimate solution without giving anything away.
  12. It's RGB forestrys. Go's as bruks on here I think.
  13. Sorry Ic I can't agree with this as napalm was banned as a method of doing away with people, you'd have to use a more humane method of disposing of them like say electrocution.....
  14. As waz said, makes nipping in to grab a sarny that bit safer and you'll be surprised how little dust will come back out even without vents. Bit bigger truck but this is how mine is set up and I'd have the same if I replace the twin cab 130 with a single cab tipper.
  15. If house insurance (truck was parked on own front drive)won't cover it might just give you a pm about that, cheers.
  16. For sure, was almost tempted to back the rb round and c how long too fill it, thought better of it as am quite fond of it being dint free but at a guess about 4 min? As I have filled it in 8 with the smaller hizo.
  17. Had a slightly larger chipper in to clear some timber a little on the large side for the 8 400 hiziohack, with all those pony's under the bonnet it fair minced through it all.
  18. Not too sure if these just adjust on the 3rd leg or all of them?
  19. Never miss an opportunity eh Justin ;-)
  20. I did have a set of 12 step tripod ladders till a little scrote stole them earlier this week. 3 adjustable legs make life so easy especially for leaning out to do the tops of wide hedges. Going to have to order another set tomorrow as just got another whole week trimming big yew hedges with limited access.
  21. My own falt before any1 points it out but I'd left my set of 12 step tripod ladders strapped to the top of the rb44 which was.parked on the driveway on Monday night as needed them again Tuesday for an early start and they are such.a pain to take off with the vehicle being so high but someone ells obviously thought different during the night as by morning, gon! So if any1 gets offered some 12 step workware tripod ladders with adjustable legs and s few hedge cutter nick's in the very top rung..... You know what too do!
  22. Thanks for that predator, now I'm really **** scared of them! Not a lot my eppie pen will do against that beast unless I squish it with it before it gets me :eek::eek::eek:
  23. Tree removal and lopping, sorry just that word makes me cringe, only looked at it in mobile format but looks good.
  24. Trust for the big truck and NFU for landys but if it's a non modified vehicle try aviva as they underwriting both I believe.
  25. Worryingly just outside marn Barrick at caterick garrison, almost rang it in as looked very suspicious.
