    Logs

    They are all high quality timbers. Is firewodd the best you can think of for them? It just seems a shame is all.
  2. Tractor and trailer will give you the most carrying capacuty for your money, and best value for money. Unimogs are okay, but every time i get near one i just cannot see the point unless it is your only vehicle, yet you have tractors and landrovers already. I would get a trailer for you case tractor, or maybe a loader and a trailer.
  3. I was priced out of a shed load of work last year- it would have been several thousand a year for about the next 3-4 years, by a frim that take 3 men, a 5.5 tonne iveco and chipper out for £300 a day, or £350 if they have to leave the logs on site. Been trading for about 30 years. WTF????
  4. It makes beautiful sawn timber too, which finishes very well.
  5. Ticking over, but I would like to be busier.
  6. Where is that pic taken Stu?
  7. I take it you lot are joking???????? macrocarpa
  8. They have a threaded mechanism. Whether or not the climber hadnt done it up right or what I just dont know. Its not like he is a newbie- he has been climbing for over 20 years!!
  9. From what i can tell its just got a dent on one corner. Not entirely sure how it happened TBH.......worryingly, it must have come undone....or want done up correctly in the first place. It wasnt in use at the time, just being moved. I have to say that i prefer the locking mechanism of the isc block.
  10. My neww DMM impact block got dropped out of the tree onto a bit of granite the other day:thumbdown:
  11. Cant make out much from the pics Im afraid. If it looks like high up rabbit damage it may be Deer? At a guess?
  12. Is it TPO'd or simply in a conservation Area BTW? There is a maximum you can reduce the tree by anyway, and you usually discuss the customer's wishes then submit a planning app for that work, which IME will result in one of 3 things- no comment and tha app passed, a site meeting with the TO to discuss, which regularly results in his recommendations, or a flat refusal. There is one TO down here who will not get involved full stop- he just makes the decision, but there are two (at least) who are EXTREMELY helpful, and welcome site meetings to discuss, which makes planning apps very simple.
  13. Josh it would be prohibitively expensive- changing the bulkhead is the most involved job there is on a defender- its less work to change the chassis!!!
  14. Not seen that one before. Thanks for posting it!!
  15. Up until the early to mid 1990's it was a lot easier to get away with stuff....
  16. Of course. The feds didnt think that way though........ Its really not that awesome though. The media give it a rather more glamourous image than that life deserves IMO.
  17. Haha Blow....a mate of mine worked with George Jung.......
  18. Couldnt possibly comment on that lorry........... .....I've never been to Vegas:lol:
  19. Yeah thats awesome too Lorry! Its like a former life of mine that one.....
  20. Have to say I'm not that inspired by the others TBH. Not seen the Straight Story though.
