  1. go on the nptc professional 4x4 driver training course, then see what landys can really do!
  2. like this? http://arbtalk.co.uk/forum/tree-health-care/6986-trees-failing-so-move-target.html
  3. previously reduced or single stems? if prev reduced, cutting above, below, or at the prev cut points? vehicular access onto the field? looking at the pics, me and my fav groundie in the uk, with access to the field in the lorry, would do that in a day
  4. Country!! looks a nice pollard to me if its LA, im sure its got a management plan
  5. hi charlie, tradmastanar are the biggest i think, ive a mate just started with them, he's enjoying it.

    the other bigish firms are jacksons travard

    there isnt nearly as many companys here as in the uk, we regually go 2 or 3 weeks without seeing another tree gang, so the amount of jobs arnt that high.

    do a 2 week trial with tradmastaner and see how you like it!

  6. WHAT!!!!! are stihl mad??? i guess theyve stopped them over here already as they arnt in the catalouge:thumbdown: 460 is an ace saw! might have to buy one quick if theyre being discontinued as i just dont like the 441 simples
  7. are you suggesting mog owners have extra large members?????
  8. http://arbtalk.co.uk/forum/general-chat/17725-igland-55-winch-sale.html
  9. i could have done with it today! i liked it before i saw it and i really like it after seeing it for stumps it would be great
  10. ahh, another thing i dont miss about england i refused in the uk on a couple of Council jobs, both with dog shite infested gardens and needles hidden in hedges, rang the boss who fully understood, she informed the council, councils problem
  11. you cant compare a schliesling to a timberwolf, even the well built 190, its like comparing a mercedes benz to a citroen, they both do the same job, but the merc is far far better new in the uk, their price is daft, but 2nd hand, a like for like tw/schliesling the schliesling has to be worth 50% more
  12. nice one i like the bow! the link in youre original post diddnt work for me, hopefully its this . . . [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dgd-eLHP1SM]YouTube - redwood felling[/ame]
  13. awesome! whats the tree work like there november onwards???
  14. nothing to contribute, but really interesting david!
  15. nice kit and rigs there bolt, ive noticed on a few of youre posts you seem to be geared to conservation/sensitive sites/wetland-guessing broads - the iorn horse, matt green chipper, chipper with atv floatation tyres. . . what is youre main work??? just being nosey
  16. even better! then theres a discount ofcourse:001_tongue:
  17. just let them all get on with it, if employers only employed skilled people or people with real potential, we would have a skilled industry. you cant blame nptc for muppets working, as a bigger muppet has employed these muppets imo! the companys that do skilled tree work tend to have skilled workers to keep the companys reputation in tact. . .or they have people with potential working with skilled workers. these companys dont put up with muppets. if you want to get into teaching darren, go for it, be the harshest examiner out there!
  18. sure looks interesting!
  19. funnily enough i was talking to my boss abouth that machine yesterday, weve been looking at a 4x4 bandit, but that costs 30k + over here, those predators are listed on earboristat 16k new look a bargin:thumbup:
  20. i think stevie wants to know about actual companys, the company i worked for in the uk Acacia tree súrgery ltd has been going for close to 30 years now, before that it was called East anglian and metropolitan tree surgery i think, owned by the father, he had 2 boys stuart and paul cole (both now in their 60's), he handed the buisness down to them, they split it and set up 2 rival cambridge based companys. . both still going strong heres a bit lifted off the website Welcome to Acacia Tree Surgery, the leading Cambridge-based company of tree care specialists. Established for over 25 years and covering four family generations to give 100 years experience in arboriculture. to give the 4generations thing a bit of thought, it must have been stuart cole's grand father who first started it, as one of his daughters works on the admin side there we go, 4 generations/100+ years
