  1. I would consider depending on whats being asked for definatly, i was more aiming at people who have jobs where its more efficent if they dont have to cart wood away due to amount being produced. however im open to anything.
  2. Hello, im after hard wood cords or rings for fire wood, if any one has exess wood on a job, within hour drive of bath, i have a ford ranger pick up, ill come take it of your hands, or if its closer i have a tractor and trailer to take more if needed. 07929591903 Josh. much appreciated.
  3. i use the large splitting axe. got it of greenwoodworks.com, he lives just up the road from me so dropped it of on his way home that night. I would recomend gransfors to anyone best axe ive ever used by far. i also bought a smaller one as i toy it looked cool
  4. ill try this sites out see what works for me, thanks guys
  5. Yeah i've kept last years one up, no blokes in that one
  6. Im looking at buying some net sacks for selling logs. On the website i have found it gives me diferent wieght/size bags what is the best or most common size ranging from 1kg-25kg?
  7. Hello, yes i have been, I think im sorted out for now though. What did you have in mind Thanks

  8. thanks for the tip, ill try it. i like thsi way cause i can adjust whear the pully sits to suit how im working
  9. I have one however im up near bath, is that i bit far to come get it really isnt it. Do you need an extra set of hands to come with the chipper
  10. Hi, does anyone know of anycompanys, or people in the south west idealy who carry out training for NTPC cs40? i found a couple but they have no dates planned as of yet. Any suggestions? THanks
  11. i see, so its a good adaptable way to choice where to balance logs, nice idea
  12. What does passing the rope through a ring do? im not seeing it. thank
  13. how about this idea, it is simple and easy with the prussik, but you can make it self feed for crown work, whilst being able to aasend on it easyily
  14. that is really good, and controlled. Good work
  15. the bark is smooth and grey on younger, also the grain is very distinctive in side with clear lines of growth,
  16. no it wouldnt, i use a 100hp, john deere, old but it works. Keep an eye out for smaller trailers the same way
  17. I often have wanted to tell people that im happy to negotiate the price to start with but am always worried that they may use this to take the piss, so generally dont say it. Its hard to judge skill as there are many different areas of this work, such as take downs, reductions, clearing. Maybe i should say what i feel my good points are and my bad.
  18. I paid £300 pounds for a 6ton trailor, and an extra 100 on steel sheets to weld a new floor on bargain
  19. I bought a trailor off a local farmer, keep your eye out in there yards when you get around, spot one which hasnt moved for a while and offer to buy it. It worked for me.
  20. yes is does depend on experience, im trying to make sure im not out pricing my self, i try to get £100, per day, i have just over a year climbing experience, so didnt want to lose work form charging to much,
  21. What is the going day rate range from for freelance climbers? whats everyone think a fair price is, and whats to much?
  22. haha, yes that part i use for my main climbing rope
  23. For my strop i bought a 37 metre rope and cut around 4-5m of the spliced eye end, its a brilliant length, very helpful to have a long strop
  24. if your selling i think best to stick to what people would expect, common hard woods. but at home or to give away, its wood, it will burn.
  25. What is one off those? im looking for inspiration for what to do next
