Do you mean in a box?

These are the recommended settings. They are fiddly little feckers though. Mine is running on a bit at the moment, but does start well when you get the knack (with the chainbrake off).
-
I am similar I think.

If The Treasury knock the duty off Aspen will the price drop so it's cheaper than pump mix?
-
I said pretty much the same thing Jamie, but in a lot less words. I suggested they have a rethink and get something drawn up by people who actually climb trees for a living.

He'll change his mind when he gets the quote....

Is it worth talking to Railtrack and seeing what they come up with? The way I see it the client will end up with a quote that looks like a telephone number anyway, so it won't be getting done anyway, purely on a cost basis. I agree a reduction is utterly pointless, noone will want to go through this rigmarole twice.

Ben now weighs considerably more than 85kg....

Postage would kill the deal Mick, the new one weighs 85kg.

You may need to be a bit more specific.

I would have thought they will move!
-
Congratulations mate! Good post as well.

Can it not be felled across the gardens to the south west Ben? Obviously that would cause carnage but there would be thousands of pounds in the kitty for reinstatement works. Remember it will take even longer than you think climbing on 2 ropes....

This arrived yesterday and so far so good. Had 45% charge and Makita charger soon topped it up without a single fire! Used it in the drill and driver today and seems fine. Thanks for the heads-up fellas.

£300 max then Stu.

I would say it’s more likely that it could possibly be the case. A lot would depend on the size of the tree, the actual type of clay soil, and the topography. You’re lucky I told you that, I don’t normally speak to grasses!
-
Toothed ascender above systems with no back up mate. Fail. My new system is both ultra-lightweight, self-tending, and invisible. I don’t want to give too much away at this stage, but I think it could make me a fortune so I’m playing it carefully.
-
He’s some character isn’t he?!!! -
Here’s hoping mate, mine should arrive tomorrow. 18v 5A for £23 is about 2/3 less than Makita. I’m sure they’ll be fine if you squint!
-
Same old, same old really Mick!
-
Is that Al Ball mate?
-
Just ordered one on the strength of this, been needing a spare for my drill/driver combo for ages. If it's good, thanks fellas. If it's not you're all a bunch of bastards.

I think the big danger with any over-zealous, badly thought directive (like this one) is that people will see what a load of bollocks it is and ignore it. That may lead on to them ignoring other directives because of the precedent, but some of those may be extremely well thought out and totally relevant, like eye protection. The whole thing is quite frankly a disgrace.

Would the HSE prosecute themselves?
