i have a friend local to me who will propagate just about any tree for me for the love of doing it, usually in batches of seed trays, can you find someone near you who is greenfingered enough to help..?

doesnt the winchrope need to be kept tight onto the drum? as in loaded under slight tension, i'd fit it then do some winching to see what the stretch is like, if you are happy with it you need a winch cover for the rays man..
oh and a polished fairlead instead of the rollers i think..
-
is there enough space on the winch?
-
i'll have you know it was very comfy in the back of the landy, of course the beer helped me sleep:thumbup: and i had an axe to guard me from frollicking arbs and trolls..

after the unfortunate demise of the last bungee it was set that we only start a saw with sawstrop on the ground after clipping it to belt loop, they swing into chain too easy..

get the protector pro's rob, i slept in mine the other night they are sooo comfy. oh i'll post pics/vid of cutting up chainsaw boots from today with ms460, that will scare the schmite out of you.. straight through twice in different places with a log inside, didnt pull any clogging material out at all, oh they were the ancient stihl boots,

once bought an efco 152 chainsaw, and it was pants.. paid £270 for it and gave it some hard abuse, looking back it spent a good amount of time on most jobs in bits, was going to stick the engine on my mountainbike but it needs a coil and hasnt run for at least 5yrs.. it sat in the garden for over a year hoping to get stolen but nobody bothered so its back in the shed as easy picking bait..

there is a company called PBHorticulture at the top of kirkburton, top of the steep hill next driveway to armitages garden centre, they have been known to accept chip, they also sell trees pretty cheap too.. i'll try to dig a number out for you.

you are welcome to use mine at HD4 but its across town, where exactly is 'gods own county'? sounds close but im rubbish with roadnames:thumbup:.. how much is there? Ed.

client went to move his 10plate ranger back up his gently sloping gravel driveway, didnt matter how gentle with revs/clutch he was, the wheels were spinning as he got slowly further away from where he wanted to be.. eventually he got a run up and made it before slamming the door in anger and watching as the landy did it backwards with a chipper in tow without any spin at all..

ziplining is fun, we had a small one rigged at sts northern climbing do (nobody was being paid to install it past the first branch)
, that processor dude will have to sharpen his axe now..
-
last apf we stopped over in back of a van in a nice quiet carpark, it got busier and busier the later it got.. lots of men parking next to each other then getting into each others cars etc.. still a bit disturbed by it now..
-

-
hope it works for you, when i sold up my last business and went full time i was just hoping it would work out, its going ok now but i'm thinking i might need a new tent soon and am starting to panic a bit in case i cant afford, also i think the landowner will find me living in his wood one day..
-
sorry darren, as soon as they are happy with it i hop it with the cash.. and dump the clippings in the next layby..
-
