    This is gonna be a long one I reckon: Climbing: 020/200 Mid: 372 (I just missed the 254 days) Big saw: 660 Big big saw: 88 or 3120 I can't decide I'll go 3120 as I have one:blushing: I don't think I'm old enough to comment though to be fair, I did work with a 62 yr old who has worked in the woods all his life, he reckons the 395xp was the best saw he's ever used:thumbup:

    I've totally forgotten the make of ours:blushing: I will try and remember to find out for you, they are the same design as those but the third section which extends up over can be switched round to extend down over for use on steps or when you have a raised bed infront of a hedge. The lads take the Mick out of me for banging on about these ladders so much:lol: and they were 230 quid:thumbup:
  14. Lorry thompson
    I think this thread will go on for ever:lol: when reading it in the start I thought that when I go to work I'm gonna notice how much I do it and I've food I don't do it as much as I thought which I'm glad about and I've also found depends where I'm working when working for certain clients ie not private I tend to take more time and stick to their rules:thumbup:

    I have a timberwolf mate and just change them when it needs it, I forget how often but check them each day:thumbup1: Like Stephen said on here I would of laughed years ago but now I save as much wood as I can from the arisings as I can, meaning chipping mostly brash. It makes a big difference on the life of the blades. I do this religiously with hedges etc because I heard of someone shoving a a small bit of timber through from a hedge and it had a thin metal bar inside it smashing the chipper to bits! Gives me shivers haha
  16. Lorry thompson
    Aye they're spot on mate, don't mind giving advice either. I doubt I'd go anywhere else 15 quid is nowt just for the piece of mind that they are done right:thumbup:
  17. Lorry thompson
    Orange plant think it's 15 quid a pair. Great job and service/advice etc.
  18. Lorry thompson

    I tried them and definately had the strange dreams mate but did feel as though I'd slept better, this could have been down to expecting that (all in my head). Long term though mate I can't comment I get bored easy with tablets and forgot to take them.
  24. Lorry thompson
