    After 6 months apart Gloria and I are re-united! I foolishly sold her for something Big and Orange, I am not proud of this. It was a mistake! Back garden extreme mulching is back

    Back to workshop warranty I think it's called. 15 years ago I'd be raging throwing a tantrum as I'd be stressed out my head running my life badly. Now I'd shrug my shoulders wait till Tuesday and not get wound up over £20 of diesel.

    Just hack trees down randomly, drag them out, when the customer gives the big thumbs up, call the Timber lorry and be happy with what they give you. Sounds like a perfect job for a wee digger and grab

    Billy that's a cracking looking machine, looks like it has huge ground clearance. I've still got my Cat 2.7d, I'm going to get myself a fixed felling head, my energy head is great and will do stuff a fixed 1 won't but I do loose a lot height and reach for a job like you did. Do you think adding a blade to your fixed timber gran would work or would the ram not be strong enough for the shearing.

    All they did was show you how handy a mini digger is and oh you can stick a bucket on it if you like! I have 6 hydraulic pipes running along my boom, couldn't be bothered coupling all them.

    Very impressive set up! I love the attachments on the grab! What weight is your tree shear? Apologies if it's been asked already
  15. Stephen Blair
    That picture doesn't show the true size of that tree, if you haven't been to it before be prepared for a monster! And if your cycling to it via the Rest And Be Thankfull you best get a good nights sleep before tackling her

    After 12pm as Huck says. No plans to replace as yet GG! I'm doing a lot of subbie climbing for a few different larger companies and really enjoying it.

    Best towing motor I've ever had, it was my first jeep. Years before the Internet told us what to like and dislike, I had no idea of towing capacities, I bought the jeep I could afford and the trailer I could borrow then buy! Load it to the baws and drive home slowly, if it felt a bit dodgy, slow down and don't put as much in next time, but that rarely happened with the diahatsu!

    Good luck with the big shot on that tree, tripple extension ladder is what they used to use.

    The OP posed the question ( if he was vat reg )
  22. Stephen Blair
    If you pay vat, you get it back. If you charge vat you have to give it back. It's that simple.
  23. Stephen Blair
    I charge what I think people would want to pay.

    Remember you are entitled to half of her stuff too. Her pension pot is in the big halvers honey pot as well as your stuff.

    Yes it would have its own
