  1. Got a few days climbing in the Keswick area. Looking for some one with relevant experience and tickets to carry some dead wooding, dismantling and pruning. Flexible on dates. If you're interested please call Mike at Arbor-Tec Tree Care on 07919386737 for more details. Or email [email protected] Sent from my SM-T585 using Arbtalk mobile app
  2. About 30k all singing all dancing. Look a bit heavier duty than the palms.
  3. Have been in touch with fms about vretan. Helpful fella and look like good strong trailers. Anyone have a go with a g2 farma. Also looks like a good machine for the price.
  4. Thought I saw a secondhand farmi trailer on eBay for about 30 k. Will have to ring up and get a price. Does anyone have a drive trailer. I have it in my head that it's going to be amazing and I'm going to be able to go anywhere. Do you think I'm over estimating it. Any one with experience.
  5. Sounds good. Will give them a shout. Similar price to palms.
  6. Haven't heard of oniar before. How much and is it the 2wd you bought.
  7. Hi brushcutter. The palms 15d is around £25000 and similar moheda is around £62000. My worry is buying cheap and breaking it.
  8. Hi. Looking at getting a new forwarding trailer to replace my botex 5055. Thinking about a palms 13d or 15d driven trailer with an 840 crane. Has anyone had any experience with these or recommend something similar. I know the likes of kesla and kronos are good trailers but is it worth spending the extra 15 to 20 grand. Thanks in advance, Mike.
  9. Anybody know where I can hire/buy a pto forestry mulcher for a 180hp tractor in or close to Cumbria. Any help would be appreciated. Ta
  10. i had the same problem. try engaging it with a booster pack or jump leads on. if it then works and youve tested your battery then its probably the regulator/rectifier part no. 41 403 09-s. hope this works.
  11. wasn't sure whether it was a fake . maybe a good little carving saw.
  12. Doesn't look like my top handle. stihl 009 mini boss top handled petrol chainsaw tree surgeon stihl.V.G.C.ms200t
  13. Hi. would anyone be interested in a days chainsaw milling near ambleside. It's an oak log about 16 to 20 foot long, max 4 foot diameter, clean straight log with no branches. It is clear all around the log. The customer wants it cut into beams and 2 inch boards out the middle. thanks if you can help. Mike. i will try and get a picture of it on the ground if anyones interested.
  14. does anybody know what permit or licience you need for storing woodchip at the yard and if i need any or what sort of paperwork im supposed to get when it goes to the power station.
  15. well, looks like i'm gonna have to make a tumbler as palax quoted £4500. all looks fairly doable apart from the large circles and tubing that go around the rods. where do you get metal like that. it would have to be about a metre in diameter. i was wanting to do it out of scrap but i was told i might have to have it pressesd. any ideas.
  16. aaarrrhhh. just thought i had a cheap solution sorted out. do you not think it would work if i had one custom made with about 2 and 3 inch gaps between the tines.
  17. no. just in a 80-100 ton big pile and now all the barks come off and looks not see good. i am wanting to riddle out the fines and put the logs into potatoe boxs.
  18. anyone use a firewood tumbler or have any other way of riddleing the cr4p out your firewood before sale. if so did you make it, buy it or convert it. pictures would be awesome as i'm thinking of making one. ta
  19. how do. i'm gonna make some job sheets and was wondering if anyone had any template they would let me have a look at as an example and just so i dont miss anything out. any help would be appreciated. ta, mike
  20. i used to live in manly and work for plateau tree services Tree Services - Plateau Tree Services pretty good company when i was there. decent jobs. speak to stuart cannall. he's a pom as well.
  21. thanks for the advice so far. the timber on the first compartment is douglas fir and mostly below 15 inch and about 150 ton. ive got a botex crane and 10 ton extendable trailer so hope this will speed extraction up. all access is good but there will be winching involved. i know its like how longs a piece of string but roughly how long could it take to fell 150 ton going from past experience. ta
