  4. One problem it’s Chinese therefore made using cheese, chocolate and natural rubber with chalk for bearings and massive parts backup from a shed in dongshuiz, I would love to see a European or American made example
  5. I worked for a large earthmover when tenders came in we used to look for the mistakes items where they had got the numbers wrong ie too much or too little in the bill of quantities then price accordingly items they had over estimated we priced low and underestimations high and sometimes very high but due too the under estimate on quantity made little difference to the final tender price but massive difference too the final account. On an airport job we priced under the expected cost knowing full well they had made a mistake and we could take them to the cleaners on final account and did
  6. Can anyone explain what’s happened to this plane

  8. Yes you can climb the tree but not over the neighbouring land only over the clients side
  9. Early starts,long drives on your own and hard work can be a recipe for disaster.
  10. Battery lasts about 5 mins use
  11. Don’t fall into the trap of pricing to win the work, put in a rate you are comfortable with always add a little bit more if someone wants to do it cheap let them, 5 months work you will have more than one unproductive day ignore the guide price could be years out of date

  16. The ability to fell a tree efficiently with axe and cross cut saw is gained over many years, I was shown how by a very skilled patience man 40years ago I did it for a bet and lost big I learnt an awful lot that day and now would very much like to go back to thank him but too much time has passed.
  17. To extend this to a logical conclusion only oem bars and chain on saws, the belt on your trousers to be by the manufacture. Oregon and rob d would be out of business you would only be able to use Stihl oil in your saw I have found the insurers are more interested in records and paperwork than where parts are from
