    £50 isn't even minimal wage. I'd say £65, but I'm a kind bugger

    Husky 346XP or 357XP depending how big the guns are. Wish I had gone for 357XP now Sam

    I don't like the look of the climbing lids. I prefer the look of of the Husky but they don't fit my head, I end up taking it off at every opportunity Not sure about Stein/Petzl though Sam

    Avon as above. Used by the hill stalkers who have only midges for friends. But it boils down to blood group, they really love one (can't remember which mind) and are pretty easy on the rest. They leave me alone, but I can't remember what blood group I am

    From talking to farming mates and things the NFU insurance is starting to take the proverbial. Its the same with their vehicles, hey ho - more companies out there on better deals.

    I wouldn't go for the top gun tit look anyway :biggrin:Too expensive to replace the way I get through mesh visors...

    I would look at doing some sort of diploma/certificate at a local college first. This will provide you with skills, experience (to a degree), the paperwork (NPTC Tickets) and most importantly contacts within industry. Depending where abouts in the northwest you are Reaseheath offers some great courses and is a cracking place to study. Sam

    I'm searching for a comfier helmet than the Husky standard ones I use, I just cant get them to fit right. Im impressed by the comfort of the Petzl's and Stein Plasma stuff, anyone using them on the floor for forestry and/or arb work? Sam
  18. Sam Thompson
    Stihl ones are good. Put toothpaste on them, then wipe it off with kitchen roll to stop them steaming up
  19. Sam Thompson

    Big beard, long hair, looks like a viking? If that sounds like the the boy I do know him... he makes cracking axes, knives and other pointy expensive stuff.
  24. Sam Thompson
    Or the woodsmiths store. They sell cheaper axes as well as the GBA jobs
  25. Sam Thompson
