Lovely bit of work,I would let the wood speak for itself,it doesn't need and dye.

Get down the police station,or phone them up & get the facts from their perspective,dont blow your top or get shirty,you want your work tools back,& 'unreasonable aproach' wont help you achieve that. I can understand your frustration,but keep the end goal in mind or you will likely get messed about. Good luck & a cool head & you will get it sorted.

Nice one Andy,I got a good bit of info off these threads! -
I'm after a second hand good tp100 or m300 myself now,prefering the tp100,just got to hunt one down.
-
Thanks Steven& all for the replies,got to find one now.
-
So is yours a greenmech then Steven? Im bouncing between the gm & jobeau now! Also,anyone know of a good dealer in these things?
-
Hi Steven,I want one for a bit of back garden work,and to be able to tow a trailer with other kit,( cherry picker,stump grinder etc),and to still be able to chip sub 3 inch prunings,either from the trailer into the truck,or on site. So the flexibility that a portable one will give me. I,m also getting quite a few 'limb drop'type jobs & fancy a bit of lightweight kit to deal with the brash,& keep the wood for logs.
-
So does it fit up the stairs,or is it strictly a bungalow job?
-
My saws get a light chain & padlock through the handles on site,they cant pick them all up in one hit so easy,& the lock is a combination one with the first four numbers of my phone no. so everyone on site knows it,saves on key problems.
-
Its the one I am sort of focusing on at the moment (the m300),but still open to sugestion,want to get it right,& may look second hand so I can shift it on if I dont get on with the practicalities,either that or try to hire one for a few jobs to get the jist of things. Thanks for all the replies so far!
-
Gloria...hmm,whats her specification mate? & dont worry about Felix,he aint fussy!
-
So whats the jobeau m 200 or 300 like,I want light but good!
-
Hiya all,I,m in the market for a little chipper for those small jobs,& to get into back gardens,now I,m not very well up on them,it will want to be able to do a bit of the dreaded leylandi,but mainly general light prunings,& be manouverable by hand,what are the best & proven ones to get,and any rough idea of cost,idealy I would want one that can fire the chip out of a top funnel. Any tips welcome from those that have one please. Thanks in advance,& I would consider a second hand one in very good nick if its the right machine.
-
Looking very smart & practical!
-
I would not take it to heart,remember all your satisfied customers,phone the client up & offer him money back & you collect the logs,he will either take you up on the offer or decide to keep them,hopefully the latter as it saves you a trip. Some folk are never happy/having a rough time,or are chancing for a bit of a 'top up'. Thats not your problem,so just give him the oportunity to accept the load or not, & get on with what you do.

Nice pair of ridgebacks,they can be a very good thief deterant!
-
I have one similar to that shown by Log suplier,good tool.
-
Do us over 50 years olds get a dispensation of any type before I go & do myself a mischief?
-
Got mine gently ticking in the background with some ash & dead elm mix,my favourite combination.
-
I think for a nice clean chassis etc,you might up the price on the 200tdi (or 300tdi) a bit,but if its a 300 series lump I would think it will be non factory fitted.
-
Thats class! missed this thread,but it seems you found a great solution to the problem!
-
I may be interested in joining in,depends on dates & cost to some extent,but I will keep an eye on this one,thanks.
