No & North

Afternoon all my fellow hairy arsed tree cutters, I work in both Berkshire, Hampshire & occasionally other places, have done so for the last 27yrs or so running a small outfit of free lance misfits, a little bohemian at times but very professional Arborists. Gradually over the years the various members of the crew I use have either got too old, too busy or too knackered to work with me anymore so I am looking for some new talented good regular Part Time people to help me on occasions. Very good rates of pay dependent on skills & experience. I always work job & finish & generally that means going home early. I work part time, pick & choose my jobs which tend to be large back gardens, estates & small woodlands & do not work for people I do not like very much. If you fancy some free lance part time work, ideally with your own transport & the ability to tow, enjoy your work & fancy a laugh, can climb or chip then please contact me anytime. Tom 07973 183610

Hello, just researching buying a new tipping trailer, got it down to either a Bryan James 12' or a Graham Edwards 12'...I have owned several Ifor Williams in the past both flatbed & tipper, my experience was that the earlier trailers made by old man Ifor were great, the new ones really not as well built, tow badly & try ringing their customer service that was a joke!...really rude & un-cooperative. I was glad to of sold it & got a really good price for the trailer... I currently own a GE flatbed tri-axle which is without a doubt the best trailer I have ever owned, tows like a dream though axles do bend easily...managed to right off all three whilst avoiding a sodding bus by clipping a kerb at 25mph, to be fair the trailer was carrying alot of york stone at the time. Owned a bespoke tipper made by Warwick, heavy & horrid to tow...very well built though, they make nice looking tractor trailers & were a nice firm to do business with. What is the general opinion on Bryan James Tippers as never towed one of their tipping trailers, the tri axles look good . Do the tippers tow as well as the GE Tipper?

Cheers Steve, just found the thread on tinternet & noticed I had been I.D hijacked by them there Butler Boys...must catch up soon...over

Did not realise I was now part of the Butler empire I thought I owned 'B16 SAW' since about 1998...?

Can reccomend Jensen as own a 6" tracked machine...comes with varitrack...really very good...tested the same size Greenmech & TP last year & was not very impressed at all...Never tried the latest Timberwolf but the older ones were n't bad? Get them all out and have a play...look at the back up service & ease of servicing too as they all fall to bits every 10mins
