Sky huck is spot on dont spoil young lads they need to love the job to do it when I started out I could of earned more money at Wilson's ag contracting but the tree job was addictive lots to learn and lots of hard work. My younger brother is 18 and looking at different options he's come with me working since he was 15 and he loves the job he's not bothered weather dragging brash, carrying wood or lowering and to be fair I have enjoyed training him and I would train anuther lad if there keen and are willing to work and are not frightened of a shovel or a brush

I used to work at a ag contractors who had 6 of them 4 7710 and 2 7810 they were fantastic plenty of power and not over complecated like they are now with trying to keep emissions down.but as j down says take a mechanic with you

Would be worth looking at tp I used to run a tp200 on my mog that was a 1200 and handeled it with ease its worth looking at the 250 or 270 depending how big your chipping

Ha there not all the same a farm I worked at when I was younger when I was on his side and working for him he was grand and let me borrow ewt or do ewt but soon as I bought the business out that was running from the farm he was retiring and as we all know farm wages are not the best he turned in to as you describe if your buisy your making millions if your not doing much I must have made enuf to have a week of doing nothing so should work for them for newt or to contribute to my rent. But now gone to anuther farm and he couldn't be more different and buys my wood off me

Very true but like ic trees says if you want a steady away boring job have ago at window cleaning. My dads a commercial electrician just to turn up he's on £30 per hour and for PAC testing he's on anything between £300-£700 a day but it's what you enjoy doing money is not everything he thinks I'm crackers doing tree work because gear is so expensive and profit can be hard to find

To be fair tho anything up to a hour with a stump grinder can earn u up to £150 very easily
