  1. He could just get a 20" bar and problem solved, as long as he left an hinge
  2. I know what you mean, but if he doesn't know to leave a hinge in the first place he isn't going to how to bore the centre out of it. Even so you can only fell 2 and half times your bar length
  3. It's the extra expense on all our insurance and the extra h&s measures we will all have to take when he does kill himself that worries me more
  4. Send me your number mountain man, I'll pass it on to him
  5. What was he going to do if it didn't go over? With a 14" plug in the middle it needs a fair bit of lean to crack that off, with a fair chance of a barber chair, these are bigger than they look in pics, if it barbered and collapsed on its self you're not going to out run it, my point is he has no idea of the things that can go wrong when felling a tree like that
  6. No one hurt yet, the guy is a window fitter, no idea what he's doing, no ppe, but he's got a log burner so all trees are fair game, there were some much worse than this that he felled last year
  7. Nice attempt at a burn up
  8. Keep expecting to find someone dead under one of these one day, they are about 90ft tall and upto 40" dia, felled with what looks like a 13" bar, the plug in the middle is about 14" and the ones they have felled so far had enough lean and weight to cause a serious barber chair
  9. Earnshaws at Huddersfield should be able to sort you out
  10. I thought someone had shed their load on the motorway
  11. The rock croft ones are decent but don't stop fine dust
  12. I dare say there are far more cars/vans on the road in bad condition and un insured than there are agg vehicles
  13. I'll get you some tomoro if I get chance
  14. Brian James do a trailer for timberwolf with a hydraulic tilting bed
  15. Everyone should have a valtra to love :-)
  16. It used to be called grunge in the 90's! I knew I'd be back in fashion one day, and in another 20yrs I'll be back in fashion again
  17. I plan to get on board when I get the time, got a lot of stuff so won't be a 2 minute job, it's got to be a good thing.
