    work also supplied dangerous brian with a transit tipper that they thought was bullet proof - well it was till he started using it for his own work , ha ha it did more of his own work than it did for the people he worked for , the finnishing touch if im right was about 9 tons of pine in a cemetery in 3 loads !!!!!!

    i would give it a go cutting logs where it is , if women can iron in front of the telly what stops you cutting logs ??? , dangerous brian is a fine one to talk about keeping the missus sweet , you wanna see it out side his place , its like a loggers camp, oh appart from the fiat multipla but hey nice saw horse mate

    i fanny about using one because i had the balls to give it a try and really get on with it you should try it and se how much easyer and faster it makes big tree work . putting it up is easy but the complication comes when i try to add the removal side of it , the directions that were posted by brewb are a bit hard to follow (section 5) yeah we start the take down tomorrow tommer mate and really looking forward to it . hows things with you

    true true and to be honest the only use our mewp gets is powerline clearence and we dont do much of that now , handy bit of kit to have tho but from my own point of view i would rather climb , you know where you are with a climbing rope and all the art gear you can shake a big stick at

    i have my liability insurance with trust and really highly reccomend them , my insurance includes green zone raily way work , utility cutting and professional indemnity cover , it costs me 5.5 k a year but it all depends on turn over , type of work etc etc , phone trust and talk to cammeron

  14. combined tree services

    we will be cuting the main stem into 9 inch rings because they will weigh roughly one ton at that size lol whilst in the tre i aim to cut it as big as the crane driver will lift , but with the lack of access for him i boubt it will be that much
