Morning, 

Had today's job cancelled last night as garden was under water, rang 6 other customer and all said garden to wet. So looks like a day of paper work. 

The best way I have found to do roe and muntjac is lay on lightly oil foil season with black pepper, onion salt, and other herbs. Rap it up in the foil and cook on gas mark 5 for 30min for muntjac and 45min for roe. Let it cool and put in fridge and then cut it and put it in fresh bread rolls. 

But each to their own,

Thanks chaps good advice. 
 

got a second quote in today same spec £9k. Just proves quotes can vary wildly. 
 

I’ll get a few more in. 
 

 

That's the answer. I quote for work years ago now and it was big job, re-pollarding willows, the nearest quote was £4000 dearer and the highest was £12000. And before anyone asks I made money on that job.

It is very simple and obvious where to open it, I just know this is going to sound rude but it is not meant to be, if you can't figure out how to do it you probably shouldn't hire it. How would you know if it was sharp enough without using it? I can see this one isn't particularly sharp looking but I wouldn't have known until trying it as I have little- no experience of them. 

Blunt knife is a dangerous one also chipper blades. 

That is the problem with some hire companies, 

Has it got blades in it. 

Knowing how a machine runs and works is key in this business, if it brakes down you need it fix for the next day or on that day to finish job. Only the other day switch packed up on eclectic supply to 6 way valve to work grab and rotator on little loader. So I pulled wires from work light on boom and wire 6 way valve to it and used light switch instead.   

Would your campact handle a rear forklift like a mcconnel one. 

Or just fit front loader and maybe only pick 2 at a time. 

Out reach is what you need so go big, less moving and can stand away. 

When I use them if I can use boom lift even better so I can move around with out messing about with legs and even coming right down. 

Didn't he notice truck wasn't pulling well.

The Jenson rollers also move up only on one side keeping really good contact on both big and little material.

That's how my old Premier pto chipper rollers worked, once that thing got hold of a bit of wood that was it, if you wasn't quick enough to stop rollers belts would slip.

Is it Tuckwells ? I bet it's Tuckwells.

Spot on with that. 

There's a couple of companies near me how have gone Jensen A520 after using Forst and Timberwolf, there is a Jensen agent/agri dealer less then 4 miles from them so many be why, or like when I went there for a chainsaw helmet part as I was that way chipper sales man spotted me and then got me to look at chippers, he could sell sand to Arabs. 

Was over looking a farm which 3 tree companies run out of mixture of chippers Timberwolf, GreenMech and Jensen in yard would be a good place to ask what they thought of them. 

Total agree with above, unless you are good with spanners and electrics. 

Buy from dealer will depend on what service you get afterwards, I bought second hand from dealer and service was bad and I refuse to deal with them now even for parts. 

Tank breather, try with cap off, 

Are you saying no fuel in bubble when pushed. 

You just say 2 cutters and 2 labours, Were is or how will drive digger, 

Couldn't get near brash with truck or get chipper with loader, so third opinion take tractor and trailer and lift it to drier ground to be chipped next week.

Just buy a 8x5 tipper it will be narrower then the gd8x5, the one i have has been a great trailer moved tons of wood and chip, mini loader when digger is on 12x6 ifor. was going to replace the tipper with a 10x5 but have had a second thought and will probably find a GX84 plant to move digger easier.

My insurance has so may restriction on burning not many places I can, but If in the middle of know were I do as what can harm, but if house's near just be careful.

Ahhh the old chuck key in the chuck trick😀

Took me along time to find chuck key as not used key chuck in drill for years. 

Another project has come together, something to sharpen 500 green teeth. Just got to set up cooling system. 

Take a look at RSL engineering Website for an idea or just buy one.
