  5. Massive thanks to you Andy (Treequip), For showing me a few things today on chainsaws and letting me use your yard to practice cutting. The missus is off on Tuesday so i could come down again and help you on any thing you working on, so i could get a little more experience, or just to cut some more of them Poplar trees you have in your yard. I've got you them bottles as well Andy. Thanks again.
  6. Hello to all who's reading this, As some of you may know i have the CS 30/31 course coming up at Myerscough college on the 18th of this month and i have read the assessment schedule and one of the conditions is "Candidates should be familiar with saw" Well i have no experience at all, I live in the Rochdale area and would be really gratefull if any one had the time to down tools for a moment show me how its done and i'd cut, delimb, whatever needs to be done with a chainsaw. I've read books on Tree felling (well only one actually) i also have my own transport and will travel within reason and i have just bought Chainsaw (Stihl Ms 260) with 15" bar and all my PPE but still waiting for my chainsaw boots but The store have ordered them and they say i should have them for monday 11th january. Thanks for reading my post guys Conway2010
  7. Hello Kipperfeet, i must say Thankyou, you've put me at ease a little with you having good things to say about the Dennis the Instructor, do you work there or have you done the courses, Thanks for the Info Kipperfeet.
  8. Also would like to hear off people that have done there cs 30/ 31 courses recently, any tips and/or advice thanks again guys
  9. Hi guys, i've just read a post and noticed a few people going on the same course so i was wondering if any of you guys where going on the CS 30/31 course at Myerscough College on the 18 of January, would be good to chat to people about what there buying kit wise for the course and what there doing in preperation for the courses, Cheers guys
  10. Mozza do you know if the test is taken within the 5 days or is it separate
  11. I was under no illusion Mozza, thanks again, I've just been looking at the cs 30 shedules, Theres quite alot to absorb there, i betta go read it again.
  12. I have my own transport as well, and i should be buying basic kit and PPE soon too,
  13. Hey that'd be brilliant Mozza , I look forward to hearing from you then.
  14. Hey guys am i missing something here, more than one person has asked me to read the cs 30/31, well i have payed for my course and have received a letter from myerscough telling me when i start but theres nothing included that i can read about the cs 30/31 where do i get hold of this, thanks guys.
  15. I have been thinking its best i go with a good firm to start off with, does anyone know of a good firm in around the rochdale area
  16. I read "To Fell A Tree, the other day and i think i absorbed most of the book, and last night night i was reading "The Tree Climbers Companion, im finding this book difficult to understand as theres just so many knots and methods to get into the tree, slightly overwhelmed by it to be honest, i think i'll have to read from the beginning and try again, how did you find the Cs 38 ? was it difficult?
  17. NOT FOR SALE, could you be more specific on which nptc schedule i should revise thanks.
  18. Ok cheers Old snake. Thanks for your advice tonight mate as well.
  19. Hey Old Snake thanks for the offer there, tis a little far though i must admit, I also dont have my own gear yet. Thanks again
  20. Thank you for your post WeeDee, And i will take what you say on board and i will be keeping you guys up to date for sure.
  21. Thanks snake for you advice there and yes to Mozza i am thinkin of setting up on my own i was thinking of just doing small tree's in back gardens nothing to serious to begin with, The truth is guys I've been out of work for 8 months now Im a ceiling fixer by trade and its not looking to good for the forseable future, so my partners father has given me an opportunity to change my career by sponsoring me, Paying for the courses and tools and equipment and then he'll take a percentage of what i earn in the future, bit like a silent partner really, Im 30 years old now so i know this is a brilliant opportunity and dont think i will ever get another as good, ever
