Goaty

Seems a shame to waste it. Its worth asking a waste company if they have a market for it and let them take it for free. Where abouts are you? Other members nearby may be able to help.

I think this is a classic idea.

Blooming heck we are the same. I use a similar idea. Except I wrap the load with the straps laid underneath, then put a couple more over the load on the trailer securing hooks.I thought I invented it. Also I stab the "Bale" with fork tines on loader and just stack to the side in yard to keep it tidy. Dread to think of the weight sometimes. It takes a bit more time and care loading but saves fuel and traveling time.

In the nineties it was aliens in my back garden stories. I've not seen the daily sport for a long time. Do they still print it? Instead I see the front page of a work associates daily star. The other week it was a photo of a crab under a boat, it must of been 12ft across. Of Cornwall. I can't understand why the didn't catch it.

Sounds like it. Can't believe no one has sued them for false advertising. "One of britains leading land based colleges " on bus adverts etc. I'm ashamed to have been forced to do 2 years yts there. It's certainly not something you mention when job hunting. Someone else's opinion may differ!

How much if you dont mind sharing?

Being picky. You may get a keyring to evaluate:lol:

I reckon looking at those pictures and thinking back to bunsen burners at school the flame does not start at the immediate combustion point. The colour kicks in a little higher.

Well I've had an outdoor fire of leylandii today. It's very green. It was lit with little wind and I've had to stir the bottom on to the top to burn it. Therefore my thesis is it depends on lots of factors and having the time to research it. Glad the knees ok. I was thinking you were fed up convalescing. The other week I was thinking if you had a model train set, to be truly accurate would you scale time back by the same ratio as the scale size???!!!! Then my mind got better stuff to do so never did work it out!

You still got time on your hands to be doing menial scientific research stubby? When's the bionic knees going to be fully commissioned?

Another for berlingo. I've always had ford escort vans. Keep em when they die as parts for next one. I did drive a berlingo for a firm I worked for and preferred it by miles to the landrover. Plus if you turn up in a bling mobile dripping in chrome, it will affect people's perception of you. If it comes to the point were you need towing capability later you will have to upgrade. I'm almost at that point really now. Use the power of arbtalk to get rid of logs on bigger jobs. Someone else will take em. Work smart with a trailer. Get what you van and driving licence allows. I can get more brash on a 8x6 plant trailer than a lot of people get on a tractor trailer with good stacking technique. Not bragging just an example of how to be economically efficient.

Has big J been for his trailers yet? Pm him.

Workmate got a bill for over £1500 on top of his contract cost. Ringing lady chat lines, what beats me this was a mainstream big network provider. Why didn't they send him a courtesy text or phone call. I was unimpressed at the time. I thought after going over a lower amount they would cut you off, instead they waited until it was in four figuresum?????!!!!! By the way the lad has learning difficulties. An hours call was £90 =£1.50 per minute!

C4LOG is round here. But not mine.

I thing

I once turned left in a 6 wheeler tipper at scarborough right outside cop shop and was heading the way down a one way street. Quick 3 point turn and got away with it. It was clearly signed but I was looking for a delivery address street. Not interested in all the other urban clutter.

I think he means in general overall. It's the mentality I can climb, I can use a chainsaw. But not the thinking for the tree. i.e where will it grow next and how will it recover. What does it look like. NZ being bigger than Britain geographically with a population of 4 and a 1/2 million. Not a lot of choice of personnel. A lot of the thinking kiwis go travel the world get visas working overseas. So I imagine getting good staff and keeping them a full time struggle. Just my views.

I would be tempted to challenge it on the wording. I too hitch everything throughly, but recently did a journey with only the tow ball hitched no electrics, no breakaway cable. Im only human. Just a slight derail on this subject. I think breakaways are stupid. Without them the trailed equipment flies off and hits something else. With them the breaks slam on and someone else probably runs in to them. Any proven gain??? I know other countries frown on them and have a strong chain or similar to secure the vehicle and trailer together if the coupling fails. When reasoning with traffic coppers remember they do this every day and can work out if you lying or trying to manipulate the situation. I had 2 major accidents and in both cases the sergants were fantastic, been pulled twice by to first class obnoxious types on a scoresheet ego exercise.

When I replaced our chain it lasted until we sold it. It should last years. Unbolt the the ends take it in. Or take the smaller broken piece in and just get a couple of joining links, one for spare. Should be less than a tenner.

Nice result. Dealer didn't deserve the custom they never got. It's global these days.

Saw hannabel (female)with lecter underneath in NZ as well as punannii( not a teenager myself but the spelling was correct) at mt mauganui in NZ. Bet the potential in laws loved that parked in the drive visiting their daughter

Who's sad? The owner of the private plate

I used to run one of these. I used a bearing/belt industrial transmission shop for new chain and a hydraulic shop for new seals for the ram. What parts are you after, because it's standard steel sizes and off the shelf parts except the hammer weight. The gears should be findable

Yes lots of people exclusively in just tree work, might get the odd cat rescue job or hanging bird boxes in trees etc. Many companies and one man bands out their. When you spend on gear and training, insurance etc. It has to be used.

I have not been to one yet either but educating the public is something to have in mind. They love craftspeople doing working demos. You only have to see a farrier at an agricultural show. Crowds gather. so bodgers, shaving horse(don't know the proper term but its woodwork not horse barber), self propelled lathes. Horse logging demos. Timbersports poleclimbing ,chainsaw competition. Tree ascending demos with rope and harness. Milling, vintage wood processing. They make firewood at Driffield steam rally using pto pulley belt machinery. Charcoal making. forestry big machines. A zipline if you can get it approved. Archery as well is associated with woodland. All positive pr. Also an organisation to do with conservation and or woodland management. F.C or charities like the woodland trust maybe. Stove sellers. swedish candles and firewood display/sales. Need to process this Asap to be ready. To the average person it can sound dull. But prove to be a very good day out. Worse part will be the liability and red tape blah blah. The ice cream vans, fast food, hog roasts etc should be easy
