  1. Steve, Give me a price anyway, you never know, you would be similar to bringing one of the lads I work with down from up here. Would have thought there would have been someone local in Fife. Can hire a chipper easily enough from Kipper plant.
  2. Looking to hire a tracked chipper and operator for 2 days in 2-3wks time clearing a perimeter fence near to Auchtermuchty. I will do the cutting, am looking for someone to do a bit of snedding up and chip back over / through fence. Timing can be flexible to suit. PM for details or let me know your contact details. Thanks David
  3. Just as well you didn't go out in heels.
  4. Just leave and hope it gets ash dieback soon.
  5. How much Roundup do you have, make and what rate of active is it as I may be interested? Approx price and could you courier
  6. Sorry, In pic you posted below it looks to be removed, but on closer inspection its the Holly obscuring the fence.
  7. Best option is to buy the appropriate sized files and guides, polesaw and 200T will be the same, and learn to file sharpen. Sharpening them regularly, little and often will make life easier for the saws as well. You could buy the roller guides they would help you learn the angles and depth to file to. If you bought a grinder you would need to reset between your different chain types.

  9. Changing from minutes in revs per minute to meters per second.
  10. I've a 6" road tow that goes out with an operator based near Huntly. What is your timescale as busy rest of this wk and next.
  11. What size do you want, with or without operator.
  12. If they can sharpen its only with a fancy guide and then they always take an age to do it, god help if you only give them a bare file to do it with.
  13. But you want a chain that will cut well and sharpen easily, which will not be a rototech
  14. Oregon used to make husky chains, not sure if they still do but pretty sure they still do
  15. Equivalent in quality to top end Tirfors, it uses 11.2 mm 6 strand wire rope. Wire Rope for HIT-16 - Habegger WWW.HABEGGER.CO.UK Wire rope suitable for the Habegger HIT-16 manual hoist. Habegger wire rope is made of galvanised steel wire, one...
  16. Use Habegger here for last 30 yrs, only replaced shear pins.
  17. I do mine old fashioned and simple, a spreadsheet on Excel, been doing it this way for last 20 yrs. Mind you I am not VAT registered so that simplifies it a bit.
