  1. Hi peeps, I have just brought a new transit. its an 02 reg 90 t350. Do yo think that towing a chipper that weighs 2 tonnes most days is abit too heavy. Im not so much worried about fuel cunsumption more the health of the truck itself? Cheers
  2. That looks cool. And usefull 2
  3. How much do these bars cost then for say a 18inch?
  4. I`d say husky 357xp. The saw has tons of power already with even more on an 18 inch bar it would rip
  5. A nice tree to have on your c.v there matty Good Work
  6. Yeah,Id just say " I no it was a big conifer but I didant think that they were ever protected?
  7. Yeah i think you could have a potential T.P.O problem on your hands

    I gotta wait till xmas for mine as its a present . Still on no.5 at the mo. Shooting zombies and team death match. Call of duty causes serious sleep depravation, and causes communication problems too. While playing online only 3 out of 100 words said to you are absorbed. Thats a fact
  9. That is a biiiiiiig bit of hedge there!! Would have been dreaming of conifer topping after that lot. Would have been nice if after ur final cut chain break on prepare to climb out, customer appears very dissapointed wants at least another foot off!!
  10. Theres a road running through aylesford that has loads of these. Cant remember the name. I heard that the trunks are worth alot of money?
  11. Would certainly be a talking point at the local boozer if you did!
  12. Thats a real skill reducing trees like that! reductions have to be one of the hardest ways to work on trees. Nice one steve.
  13. I think it would be a drawn out and difficult procedure to get a company to pay tax on earnings that a sub contracted company didant pay for themelves. Surely the tax man will chase the sub-contracted company for the tax as its there profit? I see your point about the paperwork, must be for a reason. If i used anyone as a subbie i would personally check their insurance. From my point of view they are working around my customers so for there sake should anything happen you want them to be covered. Your name is on the line to a certain degree so you want everything to be proper. Tax however is upto them. Even if you did want to how could you possibly know and chek if they payed tax or not!
  14. Just one thing if you go to naama bay when walking through the high street dont be fooled by the polite well spoken egyptian people that ask you to come and write a message in there book and such like. They lure you into a back room were in most cases a pushy aggressive egyptian will take over and try and pressure sell you their bottled after shave. You need to be pretty forcefull to get out without buying anything. As I was told before I went " be careful of any large egyptian man as the reason hes large is hes eating very well because hes making alot of money out of tourists."
  15. Good times! Lets get the party started then on my word go and turn every electrical appliance on in your house and the heating on highest temperature for a minimum of 8 hours. Ready, Steady, GO!!!!
  16. If you are properly subbing your work out then you defininitly dont need to worry about their tax or insurance, Thats their responsibility. You give them the job details and everything is upto the other company owner as far as im aware.
  17. Gas prices going up! Good news i think ill crack open a beer theres nothing that I love to spend my money on more:dancing:
  18. Yeah wicked looking piece of rope. I did have yale blaze in mind but no way could i choose that over the tachyon. Im sold on the tachyon. will save my geko for walking my collection of meerkats.. . . ?!
  19. aha what about this then? . .
  20. This the beast
  21. Oh an yes looks are very important
  22. Well tachyon gets the vote so far then. What size cam will work best with it the 11 0r 13mm?
  23. I used to work with a bloke who always used to go on about ur skin being waterproof! He would sometimes carry on working in his vest when it was pouring down. Think he was trying to prove a point you know?. . .
  24. Is it just called tachyon? What size is it? Cheers
  25. Are you looking for work as in asking people if they have work? If so I would invest in some advertising and draw in my own work. Stick with what you no mate
