    see im a firm believer in quality, the money will come naturally , bit like the job i am currently doing , i was reccomended over severall larger companies because of the standard of our work and the fact that the boss is out on site working and makes sure the work is done on time and to standard . thats where becoming a bigger compamy becomes harder , either you have guys you can trust and it works or guys that you cant trust and you lose your reputation .

    we dont get many down here but the yha youth hostle that we are doing the work for have planted 2 coast red woods and 2 giant red woods , i was looking at one of the coast red woods that was planted 10 years ago (grown from seed) and its already nearly 25 foot tall , what are the monterey pines like over there , im told they dont grow to the same sies as they do over here

    i will second that mark , i cant see the point of having an approved contractors scheme when the generall public are not aware of it . is this something that the AA could improve on ??

    to be honest the cost would not bother me to much as long as it was in my oppinion acceptable , i would rather pay a bit more and know the kit has been inspected without a rush . ross turner is good and fair and well worth using IMO

    ms 361 or an ms 441 both verry verry good saws , at that sie i would not even suggest looking at a husky , we only use husky 357's . if your feeling like spending money get an ms880 with a 24 inch bar , now that really does cut timber lol but a bit on the heavy side
