  1. If its made by a company called Titan I spent out some hard erned back in Jan and its more than ernt its money with no problems if its not made by Titan the theres is identical and not quite the same price
  2. You wouldn't need a MEWP either
  3. Stein RC3001 but only at the right price other than that I'm not looking for much
  4. 660 with 25" bar is the way forward
  5. I would't list NPTC certs especially if you don't have the nessasary have a look at my site if you like what you see you could have a word with my missus she is now doing a open uni course after enjoying building mine you may be able to strike up a deal
  6. 1/2 Pool 1/2 Lawn no boarders no plants the only adition a BBQ oh and beer fridge but we dont live in an ideal world do weeeee
  7. Well after saying how good mine has been it'll probably give me a load of jip now and that said if you wan't the ultimate taliban taxi then it has to be the Hilux and I've had one of those too and it took everything that I could throw at it and still didn't miss a beat apart from a UJ when trying to pull a stump out rather than hireing a grinder
  8. I used to work for a plant hire firm as a fitter and we used to have to carry out an inspection on forks and loaders before every hire.
  9. Thats a new one on me but I have heard that they have a habit of blowing up at about 150,000 mls but mine will either be long gone or owe me nowt by then
  10. And that cabin would make an awsome office away from the wife and kids
  11. About 350 miles to a tank if you drive steady and arn't pulling a trailer or loaded to the hilt but it's a comfy ride so you take the rough with the smooth and just remember not to sit at law breaking speeds
  12. I've had one from new since December 2005 and apart from a few teithing probs its been a good work horse apart from low fuel consumption which is'nt helped by allterain tyres, ifor williams top sticking out higher than the cab and the roof rack and lights
  13. I'm half way between Basingstoke and Newbury PM me your number I'm sure I could sort you out something to give you a taster of what we do.

  15. Hay I do my own stuff and subbie my truck is sign written and i do have printed tee's and jumpers so if I am expected to carry out sub contract work I do were my shirts and well the stickers dont come off the truck but that said I do occasionaly climb for a guy wo provides every thing ( eccept my personal climbing kit ) so I leave the truck at his yard and dont were my branded clothing no one has yet complained and if you look at most large construction sites all the subbies were there own branded Hi-viz and have sign wrtitten vans
  16. I passed my cs 10 & 11 in 1995 but also did 30 & 31 a few years ago and I can see both sides of the coin with a lot of the comments that have been made by your own admision you made erors that is the reason that you did not pass but I do tend to agree with the comments about fitness a large percentage of people on here have had to drag there backsides arond a tree all day with a 46 hanging off there harness so there isn't likely to be a lot of simpothy when it comes to being tired after a few cuts with a larger saw. Good luck for next time ps I failed my 39 first time so dont dispair your not the first and wont be the last
  17. Very sad news my thoughts go out to his family
