  1. Go out and try it you should try to earn say £20 hour allow half hour to start and half to finish so how many can you do in a day a £1.00 a tree is very hard into grass remember to screef off the grass before planting
  2. Anybody know what this is found under oak/ sweet chestnut
  3. Because you can buy the skeleton key for £20.00 not found one yet I can’t open
  4. Which one your favourite?
  5. You never said it was a bog go 12 -13 tonnes easy to find larger machines last longer easier to fix you can get forks to unload move gear around wider tracks same size buckets as 8 tonne far better reach so less moves on the bog. Chap up road did his with a 40 year old Hymac and sold it on for same money
  6. Got to go wheeled jcb/massey/cat etc digs clears loads forklift and dare I say cherry picker, harder to master than 360 but far more use not expensive and with a large plot and a few hours practice not hard to drive
  7. If you’re doing a lot of flail work get a tractor much quicker
  8. Would you do it for £65 cash?
  9. dumper

    Oh sod off

    I thought the felling cut on the sycamore looked good was it on rate my hinge?
  10. Very difficult to buy secondhand I have plenty of people who would like my avant or Cormidi they would never see the market These machines retail 25 to 40000 new, they turn up every day don’t go sick,are never late, and don’t require more money once you have bought them, it’s very possible to hire implements for them you don’t use very often, especially if you have a relationship with a good dealer, At £40.000 they I believe are cheap labour, less than you will pay for a man over two years and you get the residual value buy a new one you will then know it’s history if your interested in a Cormidi speak to Andy Elliott DJB machinery Ashbourne
  11. We asked Citb for a course they replied that the machine is a chariot and not covered by any of their tests , didn’t bother with the forestry, npors had no qualification for a machine that you stand on my machine is a loader and dumper had it on site at Nine Elms on roof gardens they were happy as it weighs less than a tonne, what ticket have you got.?
  12. Always found it cheaper to buy a new saw rather than rebuild cutoff saws just get too much abuse
  13. Just been into a site today no certs required for tracked loader or carrier if you don’t sit on it with a seat belt if you stand up it’s a wheelbarrow thats not to say shouldn’t have some training we sent the manual for mine to our local training company, they came out and we spent a afternoon showing them how to use it, they then gave us a certificate
