  1. thats an awesome truck that steve, and that box fits a treat, when you getting a grab then
  2. i think what steves trying to get at is if his competitor takes home and bins all their tree waste they may charge 500 for a day, steve can go in at 300, do the job slightly quicker thanks to his micro machines eliminating dragging/clearup time, and he knows he can make an aditional 400 out of the wood, winning more jobs as he's cheaper, happier clients as he's cheaper, and taking home more money as hes either got time to do another job, or split the wood SWB wins more jobs, makes more money
  3. we are, we are! have you any pictures of before and after youve done youre thing lee? say a year on? or am i thinking the wrong way?

  14. £50-60, maybe 70 untill you've proved yourself those qualifications mean naff all at the moment, experience is much more valuable to put what i said into context, stephen hawking could pass a nd arb with ease, but do you reckon he could drag brash/climb???

  16. HAHAHAHAHA went to unload chippings today at a horsey yard past a caravan site, now before today, i thought this site to be a 'nice' caravan site, how wrong was i. unloaded, driving back past said site, got stopped by 4 'caravanners', recognised one of them from a few months back (too smart for the theiving scumbags ) asked us for fags ect, (im with 2 groundies) then starting asking where they can get climbers saws from, as 'they ave the harness and everything' well whilst my 2 niave groundies are happily chatting aay to them, im constantly checking my mirrors, watching as they walk round the back of the truck several times. anyway, after 5 mins ive had enough, as i pull away i see a 020 on the deck(where mirrors previously couldnt see) i yank the hand brake on, jump out, by which time theres no saw to be seen, we all pile out, the 2 groundies are both like come on lads hand it over' all nice and calm, i on the other hand arnt having any of it, 'wheres our !!!!!!!!! saw, blah blah blah' cant find it, looked under their van, in the back ect, still no saw, now the 4 'caravanners' are getting irate, so i jump in a 6 ft ditch covered in stingers, and found the saw 'caravanners' couldnt understand how it got there. . . suprise suprise my 2 groundies are all 'come on lads, fair game, lets shake on it' i had to walk away, otherwise id have lamped the lot of them they've now set themselves up as . . . (regulars on here, pm me for details) . . in histon, cambridge i strongly recomend that everyone chain their saws to their van

  20. todays job, tidy up these fastigia beech, restoring them to their formal shape, no chainsaws allowed!
  21. lol, its a compliment to how good they look mate!
  22. they look expensive!
  23. i know what you mean, i think, sometimes the hitch will collapse, and when you put your weight on the rope it is still collapsed, so wont bite? try when putting youre wraps in the knot, put a twist in the hitch rope, i tried this, its amazing the difference
  24. will a series pto winch fit a 130 tdi defender?
  25. if youre confident you can sell it on for more than you paid for it the next day, have the money, and know for sure it either doesnt need any money spent or know for sure what it needs, and can still afford it/sell it on at a profit, go for it aslong as its what you want of course!
