Brush up on legislation, axiom of uniform stress, compression forks, survey equipment, grab a copy of Fungi on Trees, an Arborists field guide and learn all the colonization strategies, latin names etc. Shigo's Modern Arboriculture is a good book to get your head in for this course. Main thing is, ENJOY!!

Really useful links. Many thanks!

Sorry gents, I did mean radar. Just curious as to how valid it is, costs etc. It's my understanding that it doesn't detect roots less than 1cm in diameter which bothers me?

Has anybody come across this as an industry recognised survey technique in the UK?

Keep it clean, give it a osak in warm water and sea salt and after a few days it should pop out with a squeeze. Had this loads, once I had a blackthorn tip in my shin for 6 weeks, it came out eventually with a bang, great fun!!

Try the National Hedelaying Association website for local contractors, you may be able to sub it out and use it as a learning experience to get some training at the same time. It's much like tree work, if done badly, it stands out like a sore thumb! If it's the wrong style in the wrong part of the country, then ooooooooooooooooo the purists (like me) will frown lol. NCFE, Woodland Trust, Wildlife Trusts all provide very resonably priced training courses too.

I charge out between £80-100 a day (a day means until the jobs done, don't be one of these that slacks after 7 hours) depending on the job. CS upto 39, all kit, saws and fuel supplied (including climbing kit). These prices are often bumped up by people giving me a cash tip at the end of the day.
