  1. I hope you have a felling licence to carry at work, only chipper that would make job easier is 6 inch capacity or bigger and tracked if access is bad.
  2. Can you not fit locking caps, Then they may just drill tank.
  3. If it's only young growth you could get a cheap topper mower 6 ft wide. Easier to maintain the flail. That video has been speed up a lot would of taken him days to do that. I run a old Wessex scrub master, out of machines I have used before it's an animal.
  4. I run a 8x5 tipper with double sides and triple when chipping into it, and a 12x6 flat bed with sides, towed by 130. the 8x5 is nice to back into driveways but the 12 on a 130 can be a sod if road and drive not very wide. The 10 tipper has same 3500kg max so can carry more load then 12 as it unladen weight is greater. As for moving plant I move on both of mine but no storage for ramps on old 8x5. Seen big chipper and 2t digger on 10 tipper. One best thing about 10 tipper is its width you don't need to worry about it sticking out beyond truck. I keep thinking about getting 10x5 and selling 8x5. But if only 1 trailer would get 12 all day long.
  5. Another lime re-pollarded today and ash reduced and dead wood removed. Drop zone small.
  6. You will find all slower chipping than your 35hp Timberwolf as all have smaller engines. As said just demo and test what's faster.
  7. If that was the case early morning big saw and start at base.
  8. They must of had reason to get it looked at by arborist, insurance I bet then insurance company looked at findings and said got to come down no other option but there was. Also bet got solicitors to look at deeds to find out were bound is and said yours not council. Will be interested to see outcome of it.
  9. As always press getting it wrong. Trunk left standing so pollarded not felled. And from what I ve read no TPO.
  10. Some type of plum.
  11. Was shopping yesterday and on market area rural police unit had a pitch, there was 4 officers on there would be better off investigating crime then taking to public.
  12. Found this Ash tree which has been trimmed by council tree gang. Spot the faults.
  13. Start Monday and finish midday today 7 Limes re-pollarded 8 years growth. 3 loads of chip and around 4 ton ot logs all left on site.
  14. If you have farmers around you and piles of wood about like you are saying, just knock on some doors or stop the next tractor you see and ask, the answer maybe yes, or no. Then you know.
  15. I gave up with wooden handles a couple of years ago, all alley. Just bought bulldog stuff and kept handles and bought a new head.
