I've got a 130 tipper with chip box and front toolbox. Often wondered what it weighs and had the chance to put it on a weighbridge recently. With driver and passenger plus chainsaws, fuel, oil, two climbing kits and a few other bits the unladen weight was 2.8t! Oh, and not forgetting the ladder:sneaky2:

A Highways Agency warning said anyone travelling in icy conditions should take a shovel, blankets, sleeping bag, extra clothing, including a scarf, hat, gloves, 24 hour supply of food and drink, de-icer, rock salt, torch, tow rope, petrol can, first aid kit and jump leads.

If I remember rightly it was around £200. The whole job to fell and grind was around £1100 - done in a day with two of us. There was a landscape company across the road which took the wood in big lumps with a forklift! Very handy and saved loads of time.

I was driving the other day and saw a van. The owner must have been called James and he did handyman work - sign writing on his van was.... Jim'll Fix It! Bet he was wishing he had called himself something else now....

Cheers. I was wondering about Timpsons as they are every where, but wasn't sure if they could do work boots like ours. Looks like you had yours done about a year ago - how are they lasting?

I have a pair of meindl airstreams that need re-soling. Meindl have quoted £75 to do them. Was wondering if anyone has taken their boots to a local cobblers to be re-oled and if it is cheaper? Cheers..Al

I've not had any problems working close to the anchor point. The only problem I have with the snap is getting it on the rope! I'm using blue tongue which I think is 11.7mm so not a thick rope.
