    Ok what if a company is only one man. Does a good standard of work. Needs a man for the day to do same work whatever it is and clean up like needed. Thats just a normal day of work. Nothing to need an award or to wear a cape for I do agree. A company is only as good as its workers. Whom should get paid a decent rate. All should work hard and have fun! Thats all i want

    I must admit i dont do a lot of freelance climbing now but when i do i class it more as a day off. Thats how it feels at times to me. No stress or anything to think about. I know i can turn up do my job spot on, have a laugh and go home. Nice once in a while.

    Problem with this subject is there is too many variables and people talking from different angles of the spectrum

    Its the company that sets the mark not the subbie. If they went above and beyond im sure it would be noticed We are talking freelance here anyhow not bonefide sub contractor

    How is a freelance person there to improve a business.... A freelance person is there to work to and up keep the standard of the company just like any other worker onsite wether employed or freelance. The business would still work to a certain standard

    How long are extension pieces without being greedy?
  16. swinny
    Do you mean the extenable boom on the end if so its flat sides and round top and bottom. Theres a hole there also which is why i thought about extensions. Will see what i want to do yet. May keep or may get shut for a timber trailer... not something that comes out every day though
  17. swinny
    Not too bad then for what it is? Can manual extensions be found or not advisable? Another 2 m would be nice thats all or even 1.5-1m
  18. swinny
    You will never ever have all the tools you need
  19. swinny
    Do you still use it 3pl? Or have it trailer mounted now? Cheers
  20. swinny
    Obv better with the rear engine mounted bandits with the hyd heads for this reason?
  21. swinny
    Was hoping to find some specs and see about manual extensions Also the big filter part on the tank does say Hiab on the top of it... hmmmm
  22. swinny
    Right sounds interesting. I dont know a lot about hiabs etc The atlas cranes at the end of the second ram are also attached by a link that drops down from the boom by the pics on google unlike this one
  23. swinny
    Cant be atlas going off google images. The big rams on the atlas pics point vertical this one points horizontal at this point
