  1. does anyone know if the overdrive is just a 1/1 gear or actually some thing you engage manually like you would on an old landy?ta

  3. managed to get done by 1 so missed worst of heat thankfully! Customer had all chip so didnt tip at yours,cheers though,gave him your number for possible grinding.
  4. SiW,i ve had a pretty slow month and suddenly today loads of work has just fallen on me,always seems just as you hit bottom you get shot straight back up! I really hope the same applies for you
  5. yep,done a couple so far this year
  6. after a quiet few weeks suns out and had 3 calls today,happy days are here again!!
  7. strapped it up and banged it over! small gob quick back cut
  8. about 50/50 between personal use and sales, as you say,tree work is a much better way to make a living,would much rather be climbing than splitting!
  9. i see your point but for me its good 'rainy day' work,spare hour here or there,cut and split a cube or two. We have two woodburners as primary heating, so have to do it anyway
  10. yes, sellin arb waste as logs,why wouldnt you?
  11. i always go for my 560 over the441 unless the wood is stupid big,really doesnt feel like much difference in grunt

  19. have got lorry mounted winch but have feeling which ever way its pulled its gonna be un predictable
  20. as i said im concerned it will split out/explode/be a general nightmare as soon as i put a back cut in,plus would make really good habitat to bang it out where it forks
  21. and before you ask jon(mendip logs),no you cant have the wood
  22. got to fell this next week,think i will probably have to climb it as its in such a state (cracks right down trunk/ganoderma/ionotus etc) that im concerned its just gonna explode if i fell it at base,LOT of weight on that large limb! Thoughts please. will take some better photos when doing it
