What is the going rate per hour for hand cutters including there own saws ppe cutting Norway and Sitka out of a hardwood stand probably 25 feet high and tipping 3 m lengths to side for the forwarder or maybe go for tonnage rate any input welcome thanks

I think big trees are much better than most of the small stuff as you are on the job for a full shift for a day or 2 no down time travelling between jobs that's where a lot of time is wasted , someone mentioned extra fuel this should be calculated in the price along with every other cost I would have thought but yes stick to your price as that is what you have quoted therefor need for this job and I personally think if you can move then its been too high in the first place and makes you look a wee bit silly

Rupes quite right " if" you are paying sick pay to your guy and he turns up Monday morning with a torn knee from the weekend then I agree that's his problem but worse if the so called injury suddenly happens at 9 on Monday and off for 6 weeks because of it that's when I think we have reason to question it . On the quote subject I would write exactly what you will do and make sure they understand it cause we have had people say oh I thought x y z was included

The way you felt I think is perfectly normal as a parent as everyone has said. Try to keep every thing in perspective your boy has had a nasty cut to the head but you say seems ok now after the the care and love you as parents gave him ,as said emotions images etc play your mind when you are alone with nothing else to do but relive the days events I'm sure as said he will be fine "until the next time"!!!!! Good on ye
