  1. Water proof slippers or what I’ll be calling them, Felling shoes!😀
  2. Merry Xmas everyone!
  3. 1 degrees and a flutter of snow last night! nights are fare stretching too!😀
  4. Well you can just adapt it for my digger please in the new year !👌 needing more timber for Davie so I'll be over!
  5. Thought about this Graham but didn't like the cost.
  6. I've got the lifter, it's the attachment to the timber in after .
  7. Looking for ideas of what the more experienced millers are using onsite to lift heavy milled slabs once they have been milled. Largest machine I'm allowed on site is a 3t Mini digger. Slabs are going to be too wide for my grab and risk damaging. Thoughts so far are lifting tongs on a swivel/shackle. Eyebolt on a plate to be quickly attached but I think that's going to damage the timber too much. I don't want to mess about with ratchet straps and bits of rope so if there's an invention already out there I'd rather buy it. Guessing the slabs are going to be 250-300kgs but could well be more. Thanks
  8. Bullshit maybe looks good to other bullshitters! Not a client base I'm after and totally see through in the eyes of most. Be honest, work hard and you are now a 7 days a week, 24 hrs a day, 365 days a year service. My answer to everything is ' no probs '! And yes, money jobs rise to the top of the to do list!
  9. Gub is correct, the rest are all wrong 😀
  10. Plenty of room to fell at ground level below the knots, even then they are a very small percentage of the trees diameter and never had an issue with a knot, if anything internal knots are strong as hell. Just fell it down the hill, job done.
  11. Growing as ground cover. thanks
  12. Loving mine!
  13. Week 9 of rhody stumps!
  14. It's getting milled on site
  15. Know a lad who ran a little chipper off the back of his Landy. Don't think it was nothing great but worked. Now with the evolution of micro chippers a cs100 would outperform it easily.
  16. Now I know you are a trolling tree legend! 😂
  17. This is rambling nonsense of someone who clearly hasn’t a clue what he is doing in the tree world and your video is proof.
  18. Oh your definitely the first to try that 😂
  19. Proper job Gray Git!!
