    rather than using the end of your file handle why not get a short piece of alcathene pipe (blue plastic water pipe) i had always used to use my file handle until i saw the bits of pipe being used on my assessor training course !

    I Never have been able to get my head around the idea that college leavers expect to be earning the same as an experienced climber !! worse still there are the boys that get put through their 38/39 by the employer and then have the cheek to tell the boss that they are worth way more now they are able to climb and want more money !!!!!

    We had a 540xpt down on trial last nov/dec and after having compared it to the ms200 and 201 i decided that as soon as we can buy 4 of the 540's i will be flogging all of the stihl's !!

    we are finding that it is becoming far more common to be asked t provide cpcs evidence for hiab opperators and kit such as hook loader and role on role off lorries before we can opperate them on site

    Mark I used to keep it cheap and thought i was doing the right thig by the customers etc but found it to be costly in the long run , beter to work for 350-400 one day a week rather than beast you kit for two days for 400 and double the expenses !!
  17. combined tree services
    well to start a Hook loader and Hiab on a 7.5 ton truck would limmit you to about 500-800 kg pay load , then there are the regular inspections \ cpcs , loler inspections and o licence !!!

    Hiya Mark i have been kept busy for the last few months with lots of work, a house to renovate and a baby on its way and will be here in February lol Hows you ? As for £200 a day for groundy chiper and kit - its ok while nothing is going wrong or needing replacing !! i wish that these guys would realise that they are mearmy undermining the value of the industry and would actually be just as busy if they charge the same as the rest and keep a good reputation !

    But then again A mog is meant to be used in off road conditions and is ideal for taking a decant size PTO chipper accross farmland to a work site where it can be chiped into and then taken back accros the site without the risk of a any non Drve wheels causing it to lose traction or cause undue ground disturbance ! this it something a tractor , chipper and trailer can not offer ! and seccondly it is not intended for a mog with front mount to travel at speeds of 40-40 mph , when opperating a front mount chipper our mog is always escorted on the highway and at no point will it acceed 30mph on even so much and a dual carageway !! its often the case that a machine gets a bad name beacuse of the opperators !!

    in cornwall it is fairly easy to get a second climber , truck and chipper and own saws for £200 a day , mind you i know of at least 3 firms that suply a truck,chipper and two men with saws climbing gear etc for £270 a day !!! not even worth getting out of bed for tbh .
  21. combined tree services
    Im sure you will be doing exactly that john !!!!!!!
  22. combined tree services
    TBH i think lots of people "hear and See" things abouts firms but how much of it is truth or even relevent to everyone ?? im sure that neither of these mentionedcompanies are the size they are if they were anything like the rumor mill claims they are , as for having poor kit im not that aware of any ISO/Arb Approved firms out there that provide crap kit and carry out naf work ! maybe The tree surgery industry needs a reality check on what it is and what it stands for !! then again this is only my oppinion
