  1. Both are a terrible idea, either fell it or leave it alone
  2. So you don't want to top it but you are willing to mutilate it by taking a co dom off. Strange that, why not just fell it???

  4. its not an 076
  5. I can see the sense in that but rigging newbies tend to be pooping themselves and would have to face the wrath of the boss/client/workmates taking the pee if anything goes wrong. They lack faith in the climber/rope/bollard/ability and generally end up with way too much friction in the system. As son as you are a couple of feet away they start questioning themselves and generally not having a good time of it. Good rigging isn't something most people can learn by "suck it and see" A model is a good teaching aid but if the fert hits the spinner, you immediately come to the question of "working of instructing" I wouldn't want to be pointing at the model and saying "well I told him what to do".............
  6. Nope, not in my (many years of) experience, the only way to do this is train someone to do the job properly
  7. Given that cheating a clock on a machine like that is so easy, if I were a potential buyer, I would not place any significant faith in what the clock claimed.
  8. Check the fuel tank breather
  9. Quality work
  10. Ball it up and burn it:thumbup:
  11. Have you had it on a weigh bridge yet? With a load bed that far back I think you will be appalled at how little legal payload you have. Don't forget the chipper nose weight.
  12. It will become scarce as they all go over to net wraps, bloody progress has a lot to answer for
  13. Chasing up small domestic work that hasn't been done after a suitable period has elapsed would be sensible, a nudge to get it back in the eye so to speak. The down side is that if you get it wrong, you run the risk of coming across all double glazing salesman. For commercial work where the other party is a professional they would probably not be surprised or offended to be reminded. Its not something I would do as a matter of course but I can see how it would be tempting.
  14. This.......
  15. That would be because you couldn't make that stick
  16. I have one that I bought for tying trout flies but it doubles for reading the microscopic laser etching in biners. Got mine from here Daylight Floor Table Led Magnificent Lamp | Hobbycraft This is their current offering, I could get it cheaper on ebay but I don't like tat so I wanted to see it first. Mine is 2 years old and flawless
  17. Now that is quality. I would hate to be in that competition, looking over at what you did and comparing it to my pile of firewood :laugh1:
  18. If they have issued consent to fell then you have what you need, the other consent is merely hearsay Have the consent to hand and break out the big saws. If there were to be an issue the (tree officer?) would have to persuade the LA legal department to proceed and in the circumstances you describe that's got all the chances of a snowball in hell
  19. There are plenty of dodgy people out there willing to deceive. In simple terms batteries vary on the number of plates, the more plates the better but less plates is cheaper to make.........
  20. Its is best described as a broad leaf hardwood as compared to a coniferous softwood but as hardwoods go, its one of the softer types
  21. It was and I did write a response explaining that before I saw the "on the barricades" replies which is when I thought duck it and deleted it:001_rolleyes:
  22. Hornbeam, I am calling it Hornbeam:lol:
  23. And he was correct, no quantity of cones and tape makes a path closed unless you follow the correct procedure. He might have been a plonker but that doesn't mean you were right
  24. Its worth nothing until its been felled, milled and delivered, the better question is whats it gonna cost to get it to that point
  25. If its a trap, its one you made, I just sprang it, well technically the credit goes to Kev for that. Yes there are plenty on here who have done a "foreigner", me included but the difference is we didn't start a thread asking how we could circumvent problems that others deal with by playing by the rules. Don't throw stones in glass houses
