i am currently sat by a raging alder fire, kicks out good heat, wood splits and seasons quick, only downside is it does burn quicker than some of the other hardwoods

recently found this newspaper from 84, The tree had dropped a few large boughs one of which nearly hit a car. the council had 2 teams who spent 2 weeks taking the top off said tree. My old man was called in to fell the but. Pulled over with fordson major which is still in use today. But was rolled onto low loader and sold.

You get what you pay for After we loose jobs you will often drive past the site and see untidy piles of timber, poor pruning cuts, rough clear up job, etc... If you want quality, you have to get your wallet out.

can't agree, increases kickback potential and saw keeps biting too much and jamming

its got loads of names pinning, tooth, boring, its called a dogs tooth cause when you cut through the holding piece at the back you come in at roughly 45% which leaves a bit of wood that looks like a tooth, however some people dont do this but just bor in the side and then saw straight out the back personally i have never used it, even on weighted large fells, i just get a powerful saw and cut as fast as poss, however i wouldnt advise this unless you know what you are doing

I luuuuuuuuuvvvvvvvvvv MEWP's, and i'm not a girl.

A few tips on how a barbers chair can be avoided would also be appreciated. Do a dogs tooth or get a fast reeving saw and go for it

i think so but i dont really know alot bout it

i think there is 2 main reasons 1. its hastle getting it on the digger and we have a big tracked predator which is always on the trailer ready to rock and roll 2. like i said earlier u need some1 who is very good on a digger else u end up with a right old mess however on the rare occasions i have seen it going if it is in the right hands it is a good bit of kit
-
its all relative some companies cant even pay the overheads unless they charge 800-1200 a day, others are smaller scale and can afford to come in abit cheaper
-
we hav 1 and we dont use much but i think its ok, i bet the reason they wont demo is because u need some1 who is really good on a digger to use it efficiently

tried out my new Jonsered cs 2165 today, initial impressions were good, quite light and vibration seemed low, although not as pokey as i thought it might be. anyone got any thoughts on them?
-
Definitely the way forward, i just wear a light t shirt and let it get wet. Else you end up lugging round loads of wet jackets, hats, and other so-called "waterproof" parifinalia.
