  1. You cant get more of aripper than a 020t with a short gide bar on it.
  2. I think like most marks the tree market is getting more and more competitive in real terms prices are going down and in general labour costs are going down. In the future at least in the short term wages are being forced down especially with a rise in unemployment. Difficult for tree companies that on the hole dont do more than scrap a living. large companies rely on numbers of staff to make profit and small tree surgeons are often very good at their work as a tree surgeon but less good at running a company at a profit and often just about make wages.
