Subcontracting chipper rates (to help with finance payments)

Think your a bit low there... -
Its a shame those three trees have been ruined at some point... Yes i know we are talking about the middle one... but just by looking at the other trees you can tell how the customers had set their standards / desires for how the tree is to look

Is it held all the way Accross the stem? Or just one side? If one side you can wrap a chain round a certain way as to roll it off the stump if you winch 90 degrees to the stem if you get me. Once its off the stump if it doesnt roll out of the tree. You can then winch it back. Use pulleys to get a good pull

Sorry but whats NLP?

the bark damage does look quite severe like some ones hacked at it with a little axe! too many flat edges on the bark to where its missing. Also glad agg221 said about cardboard, recommended this the other day to a customer

every time i've seen that landy its upside down!!!

Im no weak kitten pal Its not a saw for me

Used one. For light crown lifling etc.... Personally dont see what the fuss is about. Needing a tool to do fuel and oil caps. Chain adjuster in chain brake cover sounded like it had a broken exhaust... also with the compression it takes one hell of a pull to start.... I dont want one at all

Good bus then, was panicing there for a second! Hopefully you got some decent floor mats and seat covers thrown in!

Does it have cup holders though johnny?
-
Agreed +2 But i will say if we ran from everything that presents itself in life we wouldnt move forwards! Information is key

Is that 100% on the mortgage rob?

Was re asked about this job this morning! Never got round to it somehow..... Clients wanting to sell the house, so i'm back looking for answers There is also a weeping willow in the garden, the client keeps clearing the stuff but thinks its going to put off potential buyers which it probably is! Not sure i want to get involved... don't want to transfer any back up home on gear or on my person...

Yes is a spring off switch. Push it forwards. Saw off. Release and it flips back to on position. So pull pull start and away you go I think the chain tension adjuster in the chainbrake cover is a bad move...
-
Same sort of boat as you... apart from budget. Im going to get a mac mini and change phone to an i phone when due for upgrade soon. Sick of crappy slow computers

I know.... whats wrong with some people on here? Fresh behind the ears and struggle with a 200t all day.... whats the world coming to? Its a pruning saw for reductions and delicate cuts woth a brilliant finish. Why do fifty 2" cuts qith silky when you can do with the little 150. Saving so much energy. Think twice. Work smart And leave the 150 at home for dismantles... times money
