15 years in motor trade as panel beater runnnig garage with brother , still do few days week and tree work ther rest , got into it as lasses dads a forest craftperson or summit for forestry comission , lives in the woods as well , lucky man --- but now im realy sick of garage thou, has been a burdon on my life for 10 years , cant get away , only thing that will get me away is moving house.... i enjoy the tree work but would rather be on the ground titting around on the woodland floor , was going to apply for a ranger job at nationtrust a month ago next to mine but i convinced myself not to , wish i had now. But i do look forward to going out working on the trees , gets me away from the bill paying job

Hello , im just putting the feelers out for some information for some names and contacts for anybody who does freelance work up here / newcastle/ durham / tyne & wear / northumberland. just for those jobs that are at this moment to big or complex for myself. Large dismantles / Large Reductions or any thing i feel i cant get finished to time scale. Id like to keep details on record for future referance. All my work is booked in at least a month in advance and i take pictures and videos so you can have a half hearted look at a job before you turned up . Only Days i work Thurs / Fri / Sat / Sun. Rates i would pay are good , you just tell me what you want and if i fancy giving you extra when you are finished i will as im nice.... Im not the busyist Small company out there but i plod along so there is work there possibly for the coming spring summer on soon on.. Peace Dr.Green

as per title , looking for information for specialist arb first aid course up here in durham / northumberland areas. need to get a few on a course , any help or pointers would be great.

i had that very thought the other day about gathering some pictures for customers to look at to back up the patter , as people need pictures to make there brains click....

anybody fancy doing a childish diagram ???

sound advice scottf ... with so called hose pipe bans possible / and the fact its on an area where a new substation is being built i doubt once building is finished anybody will care , however it round the corner rom my home , and it be great to see these trees take root over the years il dig a bit and test the soil to make sure i sleep at night when i return there this week

thanks , i will take this all into consideration when putting my final thoughts onto paper, thanks for helping now , whers my spade?

il keep it simple and stick to the spec - from what i believe they have given me a spec on pits and the tree species and i am the boy to do the 'dirty' work as all previous inspections and tests have been made. one last thing , cant find any information on this SLA ENMAG

i did think this also , but if its in the spec and i follow it and cant be held responsible , but on the other hand maybe i should advise of this when i submit my quote:001_smile:

excellant as i was thinking of a contained tree pit which if im honest at short notice cant quote for the work if that was the case . however '''Otherwise know as a whole in the ground with rough edges.'' sounds nice enough for me today

been asked to do a job of remove some trees on a development site and then replant new stick elsewhere inc treepits . apart form removal / replant which is no problem anybody got any information on treepits ??? these are for small trees .. by the sounds of it a tree pit is just a hole (dont fancy digging with a spade) to plant them in and filled with the relivant soil mix which has been specified, or is the tree pit a contained area to stop root growth outside of an area??? thanks , any help or input whatever it may be is always usfull:thumbup1: here is the spec ===== TREE PITS - Sizes: 1000 x 1000 x 600mm for selected standards. - 1200 x 1200 x 1000mm for extra heavy standards. - Sloping ground: Maintain horizontal bases and vertical sides with no less than minimum depth throughout. - Pit bottoms: With slightly raised centre. Break up to a depth of 150mm. - Treatment: Soil ameliorant worked into pit bottoms. - Pit sides: Scarify. - Backfilling material: Two parts topsoil and one part tree planting and mulching compost. - 150 grams of SLA Enmag or similar and approved slow release fertilizer. - 100 grams of broadleaf P4.

can anybody point me to the correct or advised tyre pressures for a transit double cab 2001 ? i dont have any paperwork or a sticker in the door check. thanks...

do you have a 3rd hand to activate the chainbrake ?

ancor into the centre of stem , spin round in a circle with the rope set at perminant desired length . get cutting = lollypoptreeshape , seen a few recently

because i dont create alot of chip (few loads a month) this option is ideal if you leave it for a year , which is the route im taking-- i once paid £30 for a full load of mulch in my tranny with high sides - drove to a customers house and he paid £120 --- a dumpy bag was going for £100 , i gave him about 4 bags worth... for people out there with land , if you produced alot of chip it wouldnt take long to get your outlay back -- and you get to buy a tractor maybe , even if its a **** one

...................

must be realy hard for people to start up 'striaght away' with big debt over there head , i realy couldnt sleep at night with that over my head but i understand some need to, epecialy if the treework was your only income .. i spent a few years building kit while at college and having full time job to pay for training and house. still have 2 jobs but they run hand in hand , the other jobs pays the bills , the treehugging buys the tools , another year il be happy to start takign a wage.... recon ive spent 12k so far - next stump grinder

the thing i like about a reduction is you can use it to sway a customer to keeping there tree that tbh would break my heart if i cut it down -- worked today

we get plenty people thru the doors with vans/commercial stuff - i always say , sorry , dont do commercials , simply because joe public only want to pay a few hundred quid for a quick 'flash over' they look at my bro's bettle , a very nice show winning car and think they can get a tranny paint for a few hundred and look the same lol remember , pay cheap pay twice
