  1. yep ive had loads off them, they give a better deal if you order lots of chains at once. even bought 2 208 litre drums of bar oil off them, nobody else i tried could get near there price.
  2. I am based in the Kingsbridge area. The job is near Dartmouth.
  3. I have got a bit behind and with a couple of big jobs (well, big for me) to do i was wondering if there was anyone who would be interested in a couple of days down in Devon? In about a week or two? pm me if interested
  4. i am loving my new spiderjack when up in the tree but finding it a pain with the initial getting off the ground, iam finding the sj is grabbing sometimes but not others on my new england 13mm rope yet when up in the tree its great, grips and easy to move. (except not all that easy to move with my left hand) How are you guys getting off the ground? do i need a new, thinner rope?
  5. they look great
  6. they all look good but ive only got dosh or 1 unfortunately! im still leaning towards the capstan winch
  7. javascript:; Santana PS10 (Like Landrover 110) 3 Way Tipper on ebay at the moment
  8. i know they have been talked about on here before but does anyone have any vids of these little winches working? i am looking at the lewis winch and the 2 t cylone winch, there is a clip on youtube of the cyclone capstan winch working but it is a pathetic video of it pulling a truck on tarmac which 2 blokes could have pushed! i like the idea of the capstan winch just because you can use lowering lines. the lewis winch looks good too but is expensive seaming as you will need a fairly hefty saw to use it
  9. so how much would that be worth to a woodturner??
  10. i was thinking closer to 300 and i was wondering if anyone was going to pick up on the trailer number plate! didnt go to salcombe but hope cove, just as bad, could probably get 400!
  11. just how accurate are these moisture meters? and who sells them?
  12. im new to the firewood side of things so was just wondering how much this lot would be worth roughly, its just a little 8x4 trailer thanks
  13. thats good news, hopefully being delivered today whilst its pouring with rain!
  14. ive just bought 2 200l drums of it so i hope its good. bar oil seams to have gone through the roof lately £350 per drum from chainsdirect if anyone else interested
  15. eBay - The UK's Online Marketplace
  16. love the shelves love the little gas bottle wood burner behind them more though. how well does that work?
  17. blimey my head spinning! i took down a big euc with exactly the same problem but much worse, it was full of low tight forks which were riddled with the same decay i too blamed it on honey fungus and did find plenty of bootlaces under the dead bark. i was a little embarrassed after we took it down as the stem looked as clean as a whistle except for this rot which only really extended about 10 - 20mm in to the tree
  18. thanks for the replys i think i will have a go with some of the aspen 4, i didnt realise you can mix it yourself
  19. does anyone know if i could use aspen fuel in my stumpgrinder? its a husky 3120 engine but manufactures recommended running on a mix of 33:1 not 25:1 which i have done with no probs but i dont use it that much and thought it might be better on the aspen. thanks
  20. ive just finished building my new shed to keep my gear in and now i am too scared to keep anything in it in case it gets stolen. my pl insurance company dont really know what im talking about. my local NFU wont do tree surgery insurance at all. any ideas on who to call for a theft insurance policy?
  21. ive tried araldite, that does not stick to that type of plastic ive tried fibre glass, that just popped off to ive tried clear silicone, that just swelled up inside the tank and dropped off. the crack is small about 10mm, and directly opposite the filler hole so you can dribble adhesive on to the crack. any other ideas?
  22. thanks graham i will give them a try
  23. Hi does anyone know of any decent replacement leaf springs for my 2006 mitsi and where i can get them from? i have had the milner ones before but i dont fancy all the fillings again! cheers
  24. that shot is simply stunning hancock. a few of mine shot in devon, sri lanka and the maldives shot with panasonic g1 (Far too good a camera for me!)
  25. that is shocking, i had a demo off redwood today of the same machine, i would have brought that up with him if id known. looks like an straight forward fix though. that really could have been a disaster. good spot!! mud, what mud?? at least you can tell its a jensen, you should see my chipper!
