  1. The main thing I stress about is when I book a job in and think, is this going to be doable in a day. Or have I booked too much in for that day. The silly thing is when I book it in I must believe it's doable otherwise I wouldn't book it in. So from that moment until I complete the job which 90% or the time we complete with no problems I worry out it. If we ever did run over I know I could always rearrange things but I think it's the worry of letting people down.

  6. Try southern wood energy they might be able to help
  7. the oil is coming out when I slew left and right from where 10 is I packed it with grease but still leaking, so you thing replacing 27 set of seals should solve this?
  8. thanks for that I think its seal 10 that's gone is it easy to remove it? any advice
  9. as the title says just wondered if anyone can help, trying to sort a leak from the kingpost on the main left, right slew.

  11. I own a timber crane the make of it is unknown but on the main king post it leaks oil when you move the crane from left to right. am I right in thinking if I remove the two tubes that house the rack there should be seals on either side that could be perished meaning oil is leaking for the rack down to the main left and right swivel? sorry if this doesn't make any sense.
  12. I think the carb in my 200t is playing up if I get a carb kit is it fairly easy to do myself or is it worth getting someone else to do it, anyone had experience with doing them?
  13. Hi Jmac get a copy of the Tree climbers companion it will give you all you need to know to get started, But don't do any climbing until you are 100% sure in what you are doing.
  14. Nice work, Looks like a cool job good to be able to take the time and care to get the wood looking tidy
  15. Cheers Dan will check them out
  16. Right I know this is a bit of an in depth thought but today I was thinking and I was wondering if anyone as ever worked out the weight transfer and forces of rigging the top out of a tree. The momentum of the fall would increase the moving weight but has anyone ever worked this out, I know a lot of this would have to be done for testing rigging equipment. sorry if all this sounds a bit stupid but just a thought I had today.
  17. does anyone know where you can get Makita spares from?
  18. Ive got a few lumps of softwood kicking about the yard and thought it be quite cool to try out doing abit of carving, any advice would be grateful, is there anything I can try carve that's easier to begin with?
  19. Just be interested to hear on peoples experiences with a Nissan Cabstar are they reliable will the rear single wheel ones handle a full load of chip? Cheers Will
