  1. Could you explain the above? Look at chain speeds and class ratings
  2. The thing with type A's is that they are only rated at 20m/s so if your climbing in them that's fine but as soon as you get on the floor and pick a big saw up there not up to standard, if your using a 660 then you need type C's. Same with boots!!
  3. Worked with one today, some of the other gangs have had little issues with them, but I thought it was good. No it's not varitrack
  4. 2 of the 8" tracked machines came into our yard last week, look really good, shame they are on the way back to redwoods with numerous faults, one of which: the right hand track jammed on!!! Good job the lad was quick thinking, otherwise we would have been well in the shite, the gang was working on the railway
  5. Tell him to go to cliff on the a6 towards kibworth, over the road from the gun club, all nice and seasoned and not to pricey.
  6. Holding all the nptc Certs in the book doesn't mean you are working to BS..............it's bs really that you don't know what's in it. Once you get a copy you will see..............hopefully
  7. I'd say the first pic looks like a wet cavity and the other 2 honey fungus or phyotphra, I've seen honey fungus on birch and purple plum do the same. I think it also says about honey fungus showing these symptoms on birch in diagnoses of ill health in trees
  8. Plicarta means platted, if you look at wrc needles you would see what I mean, the needles in the pic rant platted! So not wrc.
  9. You could try Armageddon tank driving centre on the a50 just outside Bosworth or there is a recycling centre just outside theddingworth at pebble hall

  17. Bt do do tree work, we do lots for them and from what I can gather they don't charge people for cutting there trees.
  18. I had a conversation with mike a few weeks ago and on the face of it he seemed very nice I didn't end up dealing with him as I didn't agree with how he was trying to push me into having something that was right, I then got an invoice from him. I emailed him saying I wasn't going to pay or even order something I wasn't happy with! I have never heard from him again.
  19. Try "plant names simplified",great book helps with how things should be pronounced!
