  1. No less than 15

     

    It is business you have overheads its skilled work don't undersell yourself it doesn't look like you do with your other rates I'd be 20 it's your business anywhere between 15-20 go with what your happy with

     

    Having said that I give prices per job now always and it's a win win work it out on hourly rates quote a price if your quick and work hard you earn the same money

     

    I've been on a job where the guys gardeners are dragging their heels two of them help each other taking bags of rubbish across a paddock to tip in his woods. Just clearly wasting time

  2. Are they ever planning on putting a B&S Vanguard or a Kawa in them?

     

    Honda are far superior engine to a b&s I wouldn't buy a green mech cs100 unless it has a Honda engine

     

    Jo beau m400 all the way it's an awesome machine

     

    I've had b&s 18hp 4 inch enter timber wolf

     

    15hp Lifan Titan pro which for the money is a good machine

     

    But nothing compares to the Jo beau it's awesome

  3. Hi all I had one email with a lead and contacted the people which I then quoted a patio job. Very nice people picked me for my design very happy with the outcome myself and the client and a descent job. So I can't complain! They are a retired couple not what I expected to be using a website like bark.com but they are referring me to a lot more potential work.

  4. Hi all

     

    My first chipper I had was a entec with 16hp Briggs engine when the blades were sharp it was brilliant. I haven't got a chipper at the minute and was looking at buying one with roller feed.

     

    I found this and thought it looks ideal to get into back gardens and on and off my tipper trailer

    It's a arbor eater pz110 pezzolato on tracks. But then reading threads on here no one speaks very highly of them! I don't want to buy it and be disappointed compared to my old entec.

     

    So I've started to think about Jo beau m400 or ideally m500 but can't find any second hand! Which must be a good thing because people don't want to sell them. I like the Jo beau better that the cs100 because I'd take a Honda over Briggs any day and more hp.

  5. Hi I am new to the forum. Congratulations to everyone who inputs the wealth of information.

     

    I am a landscape gardener and carry out garden maintenence as well. I am looking to buy a small chipper. I would really like a jo beau m300 or a greenmech cs100 but can only afford a used machine. Does anyone know anyone with one for sale. My other option is a tw13/75 there seem to be more on the used market theres a couple on ebay at the minute. But the dont seem to be as liked as the jo beau and greenmech i also prefer the drum machines and the discharge height of the chippers compared to the tw13/75. many thanks in advance nic
