    looks good , i have recently stopped using my Edelrid snap hook on the advice of a fellow arb talker has he says its not fit for purpose to have one on my adgujustable strop , but looking at the isc snap i think i will have to give it a go , would be rude not too lol anyone use a snap hook on there adjustable strop ?? and if so would you rely on it as your only anchor point when throwing your rope further up the tree ?? sorry to sound daft but after being told my snap hook would fil a loler test im just a little bit aprehensive !!!!

    cheers chaps , i wont be telling dangerous brian that or he will be logging everything into 8 inch rings on site ha ha . secondly do any of you use popular for fire wood ?? i have been offered about 5 tons for free but tbh i really cant see it being worth burning or waiting 12 months for it to dry out but once again this is only my oppinion . what do you guys think ????
  6. combined tree services
    right chaps i have been hearing some conflicting answers to a question a have asked a couple fire wood guys - does timber dry faster as rings or in lengths ?? some say lengths some say rings ???

    TBH i would not considder reducing a tree by anywhere near 50% to start off with unless there was a mojor issue and if it was that serious i would be cautious about leaving the tree standing . Secondly if your working for a company that feel half finnished reductions or even maybe half thinned or half crown lifting trees is acceptable i would question subbing to them ! verry few people remember decent tree surgeons carrying out work to a high standard but lots of people remember a p**s poor quality or half finnished job by a company that wanna make money at any cost, we are meant to be tree care experts not oppertunist tree cutters . not having a go at you in any way mate as i had a similar decision to make a few months ago . but i can also see that at the moment jobs are hard to come by so can imagine its a tough call

    That guy sounds like a totall c**k , i had a customer tried that with me about 18 months -2 years ago , he was trying the whole you turned up late -8.30 , you had more than just a lunch break etc etc , he tried to justify not paying the 850 bill but insted he was going to pay me 600 . i simply explained that if he wished to do that it was fine but it did not cover the cost of taking away the wood chip and timber there fore i will be bringing it all back and tipping it in either his front garden or his drive !!! would you believe he decided he wanted to pay the full ammount !!!

    personaly i would not put a 30 inch bar on a 441 , it will be slow cutting and that in some cases is really not what you want when it really matters , i would be cautious about running a 30 inch bar on a 460 , bite the bulle and get a 660 if you aint already got one mate, i run a 30 inch bar on my 880 as my small bar , it means it has pleanty of power and your nof floggin the saw to death

    think you should stick with the wall nut mate , let me know where you can get it from , i might just get one for my ldv , seems it would really fit in with brians pipe and smoking jacket

    Hi guys , as it says on the tin i have a timberwolf TW190 for sale , 534 hours on the clock has been well serviced and looked after well , as with any chipper there are a couple scratches etc but nothing serious , recent new reed roler bushes and full service . im open to sensible offers please PM me if you have any questions etc Regards Dave
  19. combined tree services
    ha ha . wouldnt you ?
  20. combined tree services
    dont get me wrong im not saying we should all follow the rule book to the letter ! we would never get any work done , think of it this way - would any of you take on a climber without his cs38,39?? would you be willing to let him do the job even though he is not certified knowing that if it goes wrong then the consequences are severe and could end your busines ? im only putting the other side accros please do not think im a rule spouting jobsworth prat . i personally feel that there is far too much red tape in areas of this job too !!
  21. combined tree services
    yeah i agree , there are alot of companys that dont feel it nessesary to qualify staff to do the job properly !!
  22. combined tree services
    nice one dave , looks totally difrent to my 190 . looks quite simple to do tho
  23. combined tree services
    can you post it on here david , would be good to see !!!
  24. combined tree services

  25. combined tree services
