    Good resin should be more expensive than Tarmac

    Probably quicker with a roller and tray,you will need to thin the paint sieve through some old tights then get as much over spray as paint on the gates.then have to do it all again for a run free finish. bit the bullet use radiator roller and brush to finish corners. i forgot the over spray onto the next door neighbours new car, drips on the paving and chucking the spray gun away cause its a real fan to clean properly.

    If this is a true failure and was reported then this information should becoming directly from the HSE why have they been so quiet given recent events I would have hoped they would be keen to broadcast the issue to as many climbers as possible as quickly as possible. If the AA had been told why are they not passing on the information? I thought they had arborist saftey as a priority

    Check your insurance if it’s hire and things go wrong it will get very expensive, hire you will need appointed person signaller etc, have you done your ground survey services voids etc?

    Looks like cheap turkey oak with too much badly matched filler I wouldn’t be happy

    There are two digger tickets to work on site npors and cpcs, the cpcs is expensive the npors not so much it will depend on the site as to which they accept some sites accept self certification just to prove training on the machine. Personally I would get the npors if needed you can upgrade to a cpcs by doing the nvq

    and your rate for an eight hour day? Leave out travel just time on site
  10. dumper
    That’s why I asked for 8 hrs on site,these cranes are over £120000 to buy this must reflect in the rate they are twice as expensive as a tracked mewp but give more outreach and height but will come with a operator so I was interested in the costs against a mewp or mobile crane
  11. dumper
    So 8 hrs on site what does it cost
  12. dumper
    That’s going to make the hire rate steep not much different to a mobile crane and far more than a tracked mewp and it’s far bigger than a mewp
  13. dumper
    Nice machine but how much expect north of £65.000
  14. dumper
    We did standby for a client £150.00 per week per man on call 24 hrs this ontop of usual weekly wage sober and phone contactable at all times

    Get a saw chain vice to hold the chain easier than trying to sharpen on the bar

    A good drive is not cheap make sure resin is uv stable best ones I’ve seen done are over porous Tarmac. I’m told the patent runs out soon on the resin then prices should fall

    So you got to use the canals for nothing didn’t pay for locks or maintaining banks left it up to us to do it for you?

    So not a open meeting, why not let us know what’s going on rather than the cloak and dagger secrecy. The lack of information from the AA doesn’t help just a post to let us know what’s happening would reassure people, the members of this forum care enough about their profession to post and reply on this and many other subjects the AA in my opinion seem to have the attitude that they know best and we should all keep quiet and carry on until we are sold down the river, I hope this is not the case and your post helps me belive this is not so, however to become truly representative of our industry you need to engage with the far larger majority of companies and people who are not members of your club.

    I signed petionn not received email today is the 2nd of February the supposed meeting is Tuesday they don’t want anybody there if it is going to happen. To arrange a meeting like this takes time so why the exceedingly short notice and absolute silence from the AA the organisation supposedly representing our interest.
  21. dumper
    So why is this not posted by the AA?, 4th of feb leaves very little time to arrange I smell a stitch up
  22. dumper
    I have a Newman frame for tree moving all you need is a loader to lift it, preparing before moving will benefit the tree

    It’s a chipper it chips and according to you a big engine what else is there to know if you put it on here so whilst the big engine is pushing out tonnes of carbon you can save on the paper and postage costs!
