  1. you can only legally drive a mog on the road registered as a agricultural vehicle if you don't carry a load, as soon as a spit of chip lands in your chip box and get on the road you are busted!! Same rule applies to diggers you can't carry a load of sand in your bucket and travel up the road to the next job!!
  2. I might have some work for you, send me a PM with your contact details. Thanks Brett:thumbup1:
  3. Is Driffield to far?
  4. Steady it's only a little pulley, with a simple job in life doing it's best!
  5. Has any one been pulled and been over weight and I don't mean pie eating! I reckon most 3.5 ton vehicles would struggle to carry 2 cube of wood chip, tools, driver and passenger and not be over weight
  6. Twice the rest went in my 8 cube trailer!!!!!!
  7. Did cross my mind, get 50% cash up front and leg it!
  8. You must have been watching, did you call watchdog!
  9. How many times was this chip box filled (3 Cube) by this Leylandii chipping upto 4 ". You can't see the top in photo it was 75 feet tall!
  10. OK you win The Leylandii Bashers Cup for 2010, top neat work!
  11. Is that the hand of Christ is the first picture grasping your young growth!
  12. Stick to 346 unless you need to push an 18" bar, much lighter and easier to handle than 357!
  13. Any idea how much?
  14. Any one got a gravity fed drum chipper PTO or self contained for sale or hire, had an enquiry to chip sawn timber off cuts, thought this type of machine would be more suitable than a roller fed machine? Something like the old Exenco machine? Needs to be chipped not shredded.
  15. Million pound a second same as a plumber little less than a sparky but more than the man that makes holes in ring donuts!!
  16. Given away by massive tulip shaped leaves, make it a bit harder!!!!
  17. Call the number on the side!
  18. Check bar for burs Check for damage to chrome layer on cutters
  19. I watched Watch Dog the other day about rip off plumbers who charged around £600 to unblock a sink, however the expert stated that an acceptable charge for this should be around £100. If you remember a few weeks ago with the tree surgeon who charged £180 to fell and remove three conifers, supplied 3 men and a chipper? So according to watch dog it's OK for one plumber to charge £100 to unblock a sink but a tree surgeon is a rip on £180 for three men and a chipper??? It must be true that tree workers are in the same category as refuse collectors?
  20. He's not bothered being called A1 Tree Services he is the first listing in the Yellow Pages, gets all the top jobs!!!!! Coming through move it or lose it!!
  21. Nice I like that! Handy log blade too! Cost a fortune new! What did she cost if you don't mind me asking?
  22. Not with a smart new climbing belt on with half a ton of piontless dangly bits looking like you are going up the Kyber!
  23. Good post, too many people are attracted to this game by the glamour of skinny climbing suits and flashy shiny gear, but in reality it's mainly about dragging your way up the back of a half dead ivy infested ash tree that your everyday lopping and topping man ran away from. Don't get me wrong sometimes it is a glamorous job, when you get to pose in the chippy at dinner time with all your dangly bits and donkeys nob knots on display!
