  1. Hope hes alryt, and i wish him a speedy recovery.
  2. Crikey I remember we had one numpty when i first started college who thought a visor wouldnt be cut by a saw, praps i should send this to him as a reminder. Glad the chaps ok
  3. The chap looks like hes a jack of all trades. Well you say it could pull a monster chipper but when i saw it, it was pulling a tiddly greenmech chipper, looked abit out of proportion lol
  4. Sure is cannington college my lecturer is mike cullen, nice bloke. I dont know who had the final say on the purchase but he seems happy enough with having a new chipper and by going by the feedback you guys have given me it seems like they have made a good choice. Apparently its all they could afford after buying a M.E.W.P aswell only a few weeks ago. Tom
  5. http://stevesindustries.co.uk/NewsDisplay.aspx?id=112 Passed this guy on the motorway a few weeks ago, it deffiently caught my eye. Dont think its my kind of thing though really. Tom
  6. I think my lecturer is a top bloke, just everyone likes to have abit of freindly banter on my course so thought i could get some feed back of here to pass onto him, and if its negative feed back then just have a laugh about it with him. My question wasnt meant to taken in that way, apoligies. Tom
  7. If its not the springs then it deffiently sounds like the rollers need a "edge" putting on them, like has already been mentioned. Saying that with a good set of springs it should still pull something like that through, hmmm...
  8. For me theres nothing better than working on a warm summers day, working on a nice tree. Got a couple take downs to do 2moz, and the forcast is looking good (oops i've said it now) lol so hopefully a good day ahead
  9. The college i study at have just purchased a Timberwolf TW125PH, just wondering if there any good? any pros & cons? Just gives me abit of ammo to chuck at my lecturer about his purchase Thanks in advance, Tom
  10. It all makes sense now, its true when they say a picture (video) paints a thousand words, looks like it could be a good investmant when the time comes
  11. Cant help you there sorry mate. Dont mean to derail the thread to much but if anybody needs somewhere to tip chip, dump cordwood, or store equipment i have some secure land in somerset, just off junction 26 of the m5 if anybody needs it, just ask
  12. I agree, sounds like an inside job. Cant trust nobody these days.
  13. 4th pic looks great, all holding the same stance with matching helmets. Would make a great company photo that. May have to try it myself
  14. I noticed today the councils and the college groundsman all out on the mowers around here, it does seem earlier, but it did smell nice
  15. Think ive read this before on here somewhere, also a mate i have in motocross told me that often motocross riders will say run it in as if you stole it, basically just straight in at the deep end. But they do change pistons every few hours, so might not apply so much to saws. Last 2 saws i bought i threw straight in at the deep in, and touch wood there fine
  16. I've heard stories of an australian climber who made his own out of old firefighting water hose
  17. I did my cs30, 31, 38 and 39 recently at the age of 16
  18. At a quick guess, going with my first thought. Sooty bark - Cryptostroma corticale
  19. You cant do that im the real Tom Sellick, that is actually my name all be it not spelt exactly the same
  20. I think its been replaced with a programme about wendy richards, who passed away today. Thats what my tv guide is telling me anyway, i was quite looking forward to seeing how "other people work"
  21. They are in the process of revising cs38, and one of the proposed additions is to demonstrate rescue from a pole... i think? I'm sure i will be soon corected if im wrong.
  22. Caught this on the news this morning. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/scotland/7911032.stm
  23. Good idea, now to find a reconisable picture of myself where im not covered in PPE
  24. Yes we must Fancy bumping into you on here again
