  1. Will domestic folk pay that though?
  2. Hard to say really. It should be extra but depepnds on the situation. Top and bottom of it is that i dont want to do emergency call outs. Some must want to and will charge extra as lads will want extra and rightly so. Most will have had a beer by now though? Ask gray git when he gets back from one later today.
  3. Do you work for hmrc eggs? Pounds shillings and pence seems to be your main subject on here lol have a beer Or go tool up and become a millionaire like the rest of us
  4. Bought a new chipper Hopefully no call outs today and just chill
  5. Thats not fair John. How come you got the sunshine
  6. Not another massive piece but probs 36-40" at base and 5' long as had to be lifted over a wall
  7. Some of its down to 1-1.5m at 3-4' etc, whatever hiab can lift over object or what the job entails This stick of oak is 2.5-2.8m 36"-28" and been offered 30.00 for it? Dont know how to value stuff, but it aint worth going to the yard to pick out one log. I know oversize is a pita and most folk keep clear as time consuming so prices are lower
  8. Couple of stick of oak but mainly firewood id say
  9. What sort of money is oversized arb hard wood worth? Mixture of lengths up to 3m and diameters from 18-46" Just wondering if there is an outlet for this size of wood etc? May stack it to the side to sell and clear some room. Cheers
  10. Cheers, Will look into it in the new year, have never had to change the front belt at the other side either. Would be wise to get a spare for that also
  11. In football he would be made to resign lol
  12. Most likely, whats on yours? The hb20 is a single belt like you say, 2 belts as one. Belts last ok and are cheap. Not sure how much a proper one is? Just how it came when i bought it
  13. i just rolled them on to get the job done and paid busted lol
  14. Your on the right lines there
  15. think most others would have burned this bridge a long time ago. Cheers Dan Backup is a very important thing. Im moving brand very soon on chippers to one i know is reliable and gives good service. A product is nothing without a good dealer you can trust and will provide good backup
  16. Stihl 064:thumbup1:
  17. Sounds a very rough time there Marc, i would have thought trading standards method, get your old machine back and get solicitor and take them to court for monies owed back to you for finance and potencial works lost etc
  18. Always have spare belts down time was about 15mins whilst having a brew
  19. Should have had spares stefan
  20. Case 856xl
  21. I run a case 856xl good old machine
  22. Surely you should be retired now eggs? Or you just working for holiday spends
  23. Not bothered about a pto chipper for now, just happened to spot it
  24. The pto powered one? I was looking at that on ebay the other day seems handy money
  25. What colour stihl have you been using? The red is just mineral oil and has given issues with the 4 mix engines The green semi synthetic is good stuff
