  1. My boxer
  2. I don't get it, what are they laughing at?
  3. Good choice I use one for clearing public footpaths runs 8hrs straight at a time and don't miss a beat!
  4. Nissan terrano, freelander, kangoo, vitara there's loads dave
  5. No i did not realise it had been posted earlier or i wouldnt have listed, Oh well...
  6. Oh how did i know this question would come up I clicked on tree surgeon and it came up so to speak
  7. Whos guilty!! Second Hand Unwashed Tree Surgeons Kermit Boxers | eBay
  8. Mine seemed to run slower on Aspen and also cut out simply rectified by adjusting the 3 screws (my dealer set mine up).
  9. They are fairly easy to manoeuvre on your own but also pretty heavy if you need to lift it. I made a cheap trailer for mine to fit in.
  10. Under the 'law on premises liability act' you have a duty of care. Crazy!
  11. It would be so easy to give it up but it just carries me through those quieter cold months and if I'm honest I enjoy it in a strange way.
  12. Price per job, depends if they want a weekly or fortnightly cut I normally do weekly a bit cheaper as less grass to take away and normally much quicker as not so thick. I have several small lawns in one area I charge £15.00 each and they take 20 mins each so £45hr not bad for cutting grass!
  13. I doubt very much you would lift it maybe 4 people could? You could lift the wheels over door frames etc but physically lifting / carrying I would say no.
  14. I had 8 hrs training and passed first time, I used to reverse looking over my shoulder or out the window but you have to use a box trailer and use your mirrors! It's not too bad I'm glad I did mine for peace of mind really.
  15. I was thinking of offering tipper loads of budget stuff in rings cheap just to shift it.
  16. I know what your saying, when clients ring the first thing they ask is 'what wood is it' some will take mixed but most want good quality hardwoods which I am happy to provide at a premium of course! We burn willow, pop, conny etc on the Rayburn as said it burns fine when dry, it's just customers perception and I think most of it comes from those silly poems and log burner installers insisting on certain wood.
  17. Really! I will give that a go I have a load of goat willow destined for the fire heap I will give it a try on my next order??
  18. That's £60 cube for green chestnut / birch. Seasoned ash, oak etc would warrant a higher premium.
  19. Worth £150 all day IMO
  20. We use Cooper peglar they do a small one 5 or 8 litres I believe. Parts plentiful you can change nozzles etc.
  21. Spout easy comes off, They are great for narrow access back gardens and chip well too. I sprayed this sycamore straight into a chicken run!
  22. A second hand fs 400 brilliant for clearing work.
  23. Hi Jon 36.7 here in the walled gardens!
  24. Just got it! Ha ha must put my glasses on!
  25. 400 miles week 10,000 miles for just one job, Tractor on low loader one trip there one back.
