  1. haha, that'll be the one! did ben sell his unimog?
  2. sounds like theres one or 2 on this thread who need to buy a 200tdi 130 tipper
  3. to try and fail is better than not trying atall live life with no regrets today is for living, as tommorrow may never come
  4. i had a trial and job offer with another firm in ealing, there was no way i was gonna live in that area and be happy
  5. no i got them and the blower, the silky bades and beeline on behalf of the boss, a flat file over here is £3.50 EACH!!!
  6. ahh ok, cool, cheers rich, means alot when people like youreself and old snake who are good reducers praise my work cousin jack, theres lots of forests here. . . and horses in the countryside!!! was speaking to some horse girls from the south a few weeks back, but thats another story few cars spotted this week mustangs and dodges inc classic are 10 a penny, swedes love their yank muscle cars
  7. . . . stuff i actualy want!!! cheers justin now to wait untill youre show for the trousers boots and 020 needed!
  8. cool! what about that style backround but the ARBTALK letters in arbtalk red?
  9. haha, yep you know the sort, DW a DED Elm, reduce by no more than 5%, Lift crown ONLY (despite thigh sized DW over footpath) computer drawn maps that might as well have been of the moon, numbers, tags, spec, species which dont correlate with each other yet the hands on guys you can phone up, they listen and take youre advise and judgement on problems and trust you without getting high and mighty!
  10. one bit of friendly advise is for most of the tree guys i know, myself included, is theres nothing worse than a tree officer or consultant with no hands on experience . . . appart from being asked to do rediclious things, spending time climbing all over diffrent trees day in day out you spot and learn things books and courses just cant teach. out of all the tree officers and consultants i knew and met, the ones who had 'served their time' getting their hands dirty had the best rapport with the guys, the others were almost hated!
  11. cheers mozza took about 15 min just to write arbtalk
  12. sorry i cant do any shading silouettes or outlines:blushing:
  13. haha brilliant! bashed their car nice one!
  14. http://arbtalk.co.uk/forum/employment/18134-experienced-climber-required-cheshire.html from today
  15. aspens great, i would encourage anyone to try it for a few weeks. i used to look at it in the local chainsaw shop and think it was a load of overpriced tosh, i was very wrong! some of us pay £200+ for a pair of chainsaw trousers, wheras a £60 pair do the same job, but we may never cut them with a saw for 10 years. every day for hours on end we expose ourselves to chainsaw emissions, why not limit these emissions by using aspen? as arbtalk member xerses has said on another thread aspen should be considered ppe. im not a scientist, so have to believe aspen is less harmfull than normal petrol (however harmfull that is or is not) but what i have noticed since using aspen, is more energy, no stingy eyes or coughing when cutting large stumps down, and a pleasant smell. try it, then comment:001_smile: every aspen thread this has been the case!
  16. done a fair ammount of removing reverted growth on varigated mapels back in cambridge, and removing normal leafed branches from the biggest cut leaf beech ive ever seen in my village, beautifull tree, can you get cut leaf purple beeches?
  17. Thanks:001_smile: whats rj? Youre just bad what about the odd swastika?
  18. ok, oak seems to be wasted here then! too hot to burn and not a traditional building material. i'll still start asking people as we're either cutting soft woods into rings for them to split or transport takes all wood inc oak to the big mulcher. theres an un explored buisness somewhere along these lines it seems. i still reckon i know of one niche area planking would be a big hit
  19. what sort of mill was it Tobias? an alaskan bolt on to chainsaw type mill, or band saw type? do you reckon swedes would like their trees planked? alot of gardens seem to have sawn timber kicking about or things being built. . . ohh just had a brain wave, there is a market for it and i know where, for sure:biggrin: definatly be bringing the 88 and alaskan over now

    nice, ive still got my drug dealers car back home, 96 c class sport, amg sport package 18" amg polished alloys done by previous owner, but after 2 years of my abuse its pretty much knackered now! i really wanted the 3.6amg v8 version
  21. now that is a good looking setup, if you do get stuck, be sure not to be towing the trailer
  22. thankyou! cheers dan! spring is when people want you over here (early to mid april), best start looking december time so you have time for a trial week, ect. arbjobs is youre best bet i reckon cheers rob, heres one for you, a fell from friday, shame i diddnt have an alaskan, i reckon there might be a market for planking timber on site here, especially oak as theres lots of oaks, and swedes think it burns too hot so chuck it:confused1: its minus 20 outside in winter and oak burns too hot:lol:
