Best option (IMO) is to get a security box fitted in a DC or behind the cab in a SC and become obsessive about locking it if you are more than a yard away. I was working on a small detonator for inside the saw fuel tank, to be smartphone triggered in the event of theft but apparently, my scrote Flambé device is against H&S rules and the "toast a scote" remains on the drawing board. Ho hum

Good move, its not going to stop some thinking you are all colluding at the NATO National Association of Tree Officers meeting but that's the nature of the beast.

Have you considered the conflict of interest angle? I can see plenty of scope for contractors to get rubbed up the wrong way and terms like gamekeeper turned poacher or conflict of interest drifting about. Make sure your employer know about it or you could be buying a van and a huge headache at the same time.

Security for one, nothing more than a pane of safety glass between the scotes and your kit. Ditch a seat or 2 and get a security box fitted. The price of security is eternal vigilance

Not to worry, the inside will still be nice and raw to make up for it:laugh1:

Best/toughest way of lining a tipping trailer
treequip replied to Matthew Storrs's topic in Large equipment
That's a good picture of a tipping trailer doing what it was designed to do. If you don't like the idea of the load bed getting scratched, wait till some numpty on a 360 gives it a love tap. If its going to be on rough work, price any maintenance onto the rate. -
WTF???? What's it like on the planet where you live :laugh1::laugh1:

I would charge more, not out of spite but because pulling apart someone else's bonfire pile is a PITA

I have even known scrotes "work" the street we were working in, claiming to be the boss and looking to take deposits or payment just a few doors away from where we were cutting "the lads will be along as soon as they have finished that one"

Vulnerable people Steve. The bad people rip people off for a living and they are good at it.

You need to man up and tell her that you are the one wearing the trousers, in a physical and metaphorical sense
-
Tell the repair man to get on with it or take it elsewhere

Cant see much for all that darkness, the "shoulder" looks a bit sudden, have you ruled a graft site rather than a pathogen out?

Be better on wheels, much quicker and no "sprag" steering damage

For sure

Has it been around that long? and these people are still making good on those threats.

I recon you have the title wrong, OK, so that's not what you would call best practice but why didn't the PLANNERS condition tree protection, why have they allowed such an encroachment at all?????? Blame the person that signed off on the planing

How can i stop fungi coming up in a flower bed?
treequip replied to Tree Man Tom's topic in General chat
The fungi will persist till the fuel (organic matter) is exhausted then it will stop naturally Trying to stop it would be a huge undertaking and an effort in futility Tell the owner its simply the environment freeing up resources for his new plants to use -
Meanwhile out on site the CSCS card thing is little more than a box ticking exercise that site agents are forced to complete. Got you card, a bit of PPE and some "hi vis"? One site induction (or not) later and you are on site. I have worked as a tree surgeon on countless sites for clients big and small including some major infrastructure projects, and none has never asked for anything more than the base level "operative" card.
