  1. You need a good slagging from other climbers that your a big girl and need to man up, also having kiwi fruits fired at you from a big shot will take your mind off the negatives
  2. A boxer is a lot of money! Loaders are great if you run 2 vehicles, if not your always going to have to do 2 runs or have a day to lift timber etc. Now with the current demand for logs I don't see the need for removal of timber, get yourself some good firewood guys and they will carry it all out for you and take it away, organise nieghbours to help themselves too. It will only make you money if it gets you to your next dismantle quicker, that's the cream money, tidying up and removal of wood is low earnings so I avoid as much as possible. If you want to earn good money, but a micro chipper and take nothing away.
  3. Looked like a brain! Dog gave it a sniff and moved on. Cheers
  4. I've never heard of an investment appraisal, is this so you can get a loan?or to try and convince yourself it's needed?
  5. Jeez he must of been shifting to do that!! Glad your all ok!
  6. Put the highs into the lows is the easiest way, if that's all that needs done.
  7. It's easy you'll be fine! Enjoy:)
  8. That's how I do it and then fell it on a Ford Fiesta 2 doors down
  9. We pay £100 for ours to get done. This gets a sweep, smoke test and a hetas certificate . 2 men about an hour.
  10. I do cleaning of stuff I'll have you know! it consists of a unimog, pto pressure washer, 2 ibc's ready mixed with filiment remover and a 7m lance. Oh and a 12m manitu and basket! There's always a way to over horsepower any job:)
  11. Looks like the cabs at the wrong end! Did you get my Pm Eddie?
  12. Prune it now and get it on the Fungui Forum next year
  13. Go to the video forum and have a look, you will soon realise how simple a job yours is.
  14. I've worked off scaffold, it was great! It was already around a set of flats, the best bit was being able to rest the polesaw on the safety rail!
  15. Very nice, I was going to buy inserts then I got the price!
  16. The nieghbour just wants you to pay for the work imo.
  17. Thanks, so not ideal beside to Caravan pitches!
  18. I was thinking it was enclosed. A bin will weigh around 70-80 kg I reckon.
  19. I keep forgetting you have that loader Dean! It must be the best 1 out there!
  20. It works but it's not an economic way of running a wee chipper to get its full potential . It's a quick fix for a last resort imo. So I wouldn't base my van around it. There's a lot to go wrong with that type of vehicle and its a bit of a 1 trick pony.
