  6. Sorry my computer skills with arb talk are limited i couldnt get the picture to display .
  7. My newest toy Doc1.pdf
  8. I have got a multi tip wheel on my predator 28 and i think it pretty good . The teeth last a long time and you can get diffrent teeth for doing roots rather than stumps ( They are desighned to cut diffrently so the machine does not slow as much ) . I find the teeth are quick to change and easy to get hold of . The only doiwn side i have found is that some of the keeper blocks we sent were not quite right and we had to re drill and re thread them . The wheel also tends to wear around the 2 main cutting teeth .

  11. I have a Tw250 and am really pleased with it . Pushes the chip right to the back of the lorry and doesnt slow that much on big timber . The turntable is great for road side work or were the drives are to short to back into . However it does drink the old juice and is pretty heavy at 2100kg

I have 8 years experience and. All my own kit .I lnow it a little weird that some one who owns a company wants to work for other. Lol If it somthing people are intrested in let me know . Cheers Graham
  22. I keep being under priced but have no idea how they are doing it . Priced two fallen oaks in a school in london. One tree had fallen and taken the other out on the way down . Both trees were over 4ft in diameter and cutting them up would have been a nightmare as there were huge amounts of tension and compression involved. I priced it for 3 days for three men and this included taking away brush ( roughly 3 7.5 ton lorry load ) and leaving logs total price of 1600 +VAT. some one did it for £900 all in ????? I have decided that i wont lower my prices to compete . If they want to work for nothing they can i rather price to do a proper job .
  23. Hi looking for a groundsman for a few days in April must be competent with a saw and be able to aerial rescue . More work will be avalible for Right person . Please call Graham on 07762782134 if intrested . Based on Reigate.
  24. I am based in horley . Try b+d commercials he maintain our lorry and is at pebble hill . Richard court is great we use him a lot great guy .
  25. I was setting up on a job the other day and did what you suggested (Sighns cone , park half on half off pavement ). Unfortunatly i got a £120 parking ticket for not only obstructing the road but also blocking pedestrian access . I tried to appeal this by saying it was the only place to park that was close to the job as the property had no off street parking . They shot me down and told me to pay saying that i should have parked in the designated space 100yd down the road !!!. YOu could risk it and try and get the job done as quickly or possible or you could try a sunday or a quite time of day . There is the expensive cost of traffic managment .
