  1. This thread has been derailed from were it started so far think when is British rail going to delay it because of something.
  2. Had problem with shoulder 6 years ago, all that got me going again was a phiseothopst because doctor never worked out what it was.
  3. If groundy kept up with clearing brash how would a bigger chipper been better.
  4. Farmer near me had a car block a field gateway so he chained it to telegraph pole, at lunch time owner came and knocked on his door asking questions how had chained there car he said it was he who had, they asked about unlocking it and his reply was; I Finnish my lunch at 2.00 and I will unlock it then never saw them again blocking gateway.
  5. A mog still has a gross weight just like any tractor. And if yours is taxed agri it should not carry a load on the road unless the law has changed.
  6. 2 men team just put chipper behind car maybe worth a thought .

    No idea but were do you see it.
  10. As a user of a flail hedge cutter it amazes me how close people walk and drive up to you.
  11. Metal railing last week to stop driver going over wall. Customer decided to paint it white but looks ok. Got another 35 meters to do out of this job so not bad. [ATTACH]222367[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]222368[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]222369[/ATTACH]
  12. Looked at a whipping willow Wednesday evening which had dropped a limb in the afternoon in to a moat look at rest of tree and all looked ok and said I would be back Friday to clear it up. Got a text the next morning to say another limb had got a split which was over moat so not a danger to anyone but when I got there Friday morning there was another over parking area. Differently the right weather for it.
  13. I have used a flail hedge cutter that i use on a farm near me to cut there hedges to chop my heap of hedge clipping up it works well.
  14. Some sprinters have 3.5 ton tow capacity.
  15. Travel down the road like that you would some get lighter as you loss the odd bit.

  17. Next job you need that comes up you need one for hire or get a demo and see how they perform, then try a articulated loader then decide.
  18. Mid size geny run drill, grinder, saw anything lot more money but more use maybe.
  19. Any thing like you mention will make life easy. But there are some points to look at: it will not work for every job Moving it to jobs tires up truck and trailer.
  20. 2 years ago I was going to buy a boxer loader and did not in the end the reason is, after talking to customers with large gardens I do work for they said they would not want tracked machine in garden or anything that was skid steer and yes you can put ply down but it more work before you start. Land up buying a Giant 204 on turf tyres no ply just get on with job.
  21. About 12 years ago bought a 12volt one you clip on truck battery it ex electric board big ally case and slow lots of torque a wrist breaker. But more recent use a Bosch 18volt for bridge construction and gate hanging on oak posts I do use a very kind drill bit which has a very open flight on it.
  22. Rash looks the same, we did not see any caterpillar but there could of been also interesting to read hairs can float about and land on your.
  23. Very interesting been back to job and no sign of any thing different to normal. Antihistamine are working and it has not spread any further. Only thing there was in hedge was duke of argylls tea plant which I have worked near before and been OK.
  24. When I saw doctor at walk in center did ask about A&E but said no point just take antihistamine tablets and keep rash soft with cream.
  25. Working on Monday topping a Hawthorn and Bullace hedge went to grab hold of a piece and got bitten or a thorn in finger. Through out the day it got stiffer and by the time I had my tea could not move it and felt like a pin was being pushed up the finger, and when I woke up the next morning had a bad rash on arm near elbow and chest ( as pictures ) so went off to walk in centre they hd got no idea a part from allergic reaction from what ever it was anyone had the same or know of someone how has. But itch is an under statement. [ATTACH]221974[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]221975[/ATTACH]
