    Is he buying the kit in Sweden? Or mail order from uk? (Which may be hard with husqvarnas sales policy) In Uppsala is a forestry/garden shop called Såma on bolandsgatan. I don't know the price of cord, but seasoned, cut and split birch between 400 and 600 sek delivered cube A quality axe might be an idea to save money

    Nice Tim, enjoyed the smoothness of the rigging. One question though, why carefully rig down the wood, then spear cut the last top into the ground?

    You could be a sub contract groundsman easily, ring HMRC to register self employed, ring insurance company's and ask their advise. ring company's in your area to get work. Some may expect to meet on site, some at the yard. If you're expected on site, you're own presentable vehicle, if at the yard you could public transport/walk it Basic PPE, waterproofs, groundsaw of around 50cc, spare chains, bar, files, maybe fuel Desirable extras would possibly be heavy trailer license

    Yep, DED, id guess i fell 30 DED trees a year. although theres still many big and old ones still thriving. You may remember a year or 2 ago, i assisted 4 or 5 being felled with a big hiab with grab and saw, these trees are in the same row (but under different ownership) theres another of simmilar size, 200m away enclosed in old wooden buildings with the top showing signs of DED. I dont think DED here is quite as aggressive as in the UK, more slow and steady, one tree can have it, a tree 20m away can be totally unaffected

    If your coporate policy is that anal and unchangeable about type c's, perhaps non chainsaw work should be undertaken if theres a risk of heat stroke ect. dissolve some 'Resorb' pills into lunchtime drinks bottles to restock your body with salts and minerals, plain waters not enough. also great hangover cure!

    Not really Reduction tends to be in size, and a specific measurement given as to how much to take off, normally incorporates a prune as a matte of course Prune, basic prune IMO is dead, crossing, epicormics, Stubbs, leaving the shape untouched, unless something like lamp house ect is too close, or there's a daft looking sticky outy bit. Then there's safety pruning, formative pruning etc Thin, reduction in volume, allows more light to filter through, shape untouched. Not lions tailing mind Trim, hedges are trimmed
