  1. The opposite for me, really like the handle on the echo, different strokes and all that!
  2. Yes, the tiny one, haven’t noticed the vibes tbh, so probably pretty good!
  3. Buy an echo, brilliant little saw
  4. I had a 150 for about 3 years, great saw but really weak plastic s, moved to an echo 2115, seems a bit more robust and defo more grunt, even without drilling the exhaust
  5. Love mine, lovely little saw
  6. I pay one of my lasc climbers £170 a day, he's great at what he does and I can make far more using him for the day for the extra cost of hiring him instead of an average climber, the good money's there for really good staff, use em or lose em!

  8. Reckon my lift pumps shot, nothing happening, put an electric inline pump on the pipe and it fired up, it's what Sunday's were made for, cursing at machines and getting covered in diesel!
  9. Anything special I need to do? Just serviced it and won't fire up! Cracked an injector. Cheers
  10. I'm quite fond of susanna
  11. On a Iveco daily,
  12. Nfu insure my mewp as a stand alone, rang local office, said it was used for tree surgery/forestry and that was that, 165 a year!
  13. Send r5log a message, he has the kit, recommended
  14. They were really good times because it felt like we were making a difference, the state actually did take notice and we did make them think twice, it was something I strongly believed in and I lived those beliefs.
  15. Just looked at the price, 280 with the vat, they better be good!
  16. I really like my breathflex, will try a pair of these for sure
  17. Thanks mate, appreciated, the Chas thing just seems a lot more attainable, my paperwork/ h+s policy is dreadful! Been in touch with a company that can sort all that side out of it for me including Chas registration for £750, which seems reasonable, once that's in place it'll be a good stepping stone to AAAC.
  18. I'd quite like to be arb approved and think the standard of work me and the team produce would easily qualify, my business/paperwork side of things not so much! Going to go down the CHAS route I think,
  19. Yeah, I feel a modest pay rise coming on.
  20. Yes mate, getting the hang of this pointing and 'looking at jobs this afternoon' lark!
  21. Yes mate, getting the hang of this pointing and 'looking at jobs this afternoon' lark!
  22. Big poplar removal, dismantled by the young apprentice. Only finished college in May. Impressed.
  23. I was a bit underwhelmed when I got my 360 a couple of weeks back but after 10 tanks through it and spark arrestor removed I'm impressed now. Only just behind a 201 for cutting speed, is lighter and seems more robust
  24. Was it parked just off the road leading up to the a30? Saw it there a couple of weeks back, pretty brazen of them if so
