  1. Search century 3000 thigh waders.
  2. Extra axle,box on roof, winch it probably go's neary 3500kg.
  3. With ash die back here are the price of ash handles going to rocket, or not be available at all.
  4. Great stuff I like to see mixed woods in turned piece's.
  5. Reguards to pulley removal are you hitting it in the right direction, tapper fits together you need to tap the outer the right way if I remember towards fly wheel.

  6. Pricey way to keep logs, £80+secondhand seen new ones for£600. I've got a oil tank cut and welded to hold log a lot cheaper.
  7. Why struggle let a machine take the strain.
  8. May be I should of followed her and put it through her letter box.
  9. No I was in to much of à hurry to catch her.
  10. Will trimming a holly hedge along side a pavement today the lad sweeping up said look. Turning to look at him and hanging from his hand a bag of dog poo which had been dropped in the builders bag he was putting clippings in looking the other way a lady turned up a side street. So I went to have a word, thought you were council any way its only going to compost what your doing she said then I fly of the handle land up saying some words to her that I shouldn't have. Don't think she will do it again.
  11. SCAM..SCAM , saw the proper ad weeks ago and an 1 o'clock today now all changed. There's been a MF tractor on Ebay and Gumtree on and off for months know got fed up reporting it. I also about 3 mounts ago saw a ford tractor on Ebay rang the seller up said he was in Scotland but tractor was in the Midlands looked at again after talking to him and saw a Case tractor rang seller and got the same answers but a female on the phone this time.?????????????????
  12. Had first call to night from a customer to say I think my ash tree has that disease every one is on about. Ask them what the tree looked like, They said; it has brown clumps of things hanging on it, I said; are they leaves, They said; well may be but there's alot of leaves on the ground, Had a think and said; may be there clumps of seeds hanging up there, The phone went quiet then they said can you come and look, So will look tomorrow. First of many calls I think. The problem rouge cowboys or door knockers out there may say yes it is and fell good tree just to get some fire wood / money and then just vanish.
  13. I felled a lot last year last year doing a garden clearance job. Got some small cherry plums to do soon on a job the only problem is a firewood man is ment to take all the wood but will ask land owner if any big enough for what you want will PM you to let you know.
  14. Why use a torque wrench there only just over finger tight anyway. I was told by timberwolf they would never come undone because the direction the rotor turns there allways being done up. The torque wrench setting is to stop you over tightening them.
  15. Thanks Tony Good film. By the way it attacks the tree by spreading up and down from the infected leaf can the a tree be lopped or pollarded to keep it or has it got to be fell if court so enough.
  16. I ment £70 to do the job same as you, which should cover travel costs and boost money at end of adays other work if you can:thumbup: work it in.
  17. Hit something in a hedge that damages the blade, and £50 for the job?????
  18. £70 it's not just cutting the hedge travel cost is the biggest problem with a job like that. Unless you do it when your on way home if possible but most jobs like that aren't. There's got to be a minimum price/ callout on little jobs.
  19. Just walked the dog, Friday 26 October 8.00am. Christ its cold on the Essex/ Suffolk border.
  20. Had a new customer last year wanted log 18 inches long by up to 6 inches round he said would they be more money, I said why because there bigger, yes he said. I then explained half as many cuts and splitting to get a load.
