  1. With small diameter stuff If it's leaning it's going that way no need to put big gob but do letter box iti and just power through from back. But he was felling 14_16 inch stuff so big enough to use what ever cut you choose.
  2. Great idea, why not fit a valve block that you can hit with foot or knee to rotate it.
  3. Get plenty of pallet to store stuff on it makes life a dream loading of different jobs.
  4. Also stick a 50mm ball on back great little shunter.
  5. If big kit like digger / tractors Red top take some beating as big house near me has MF 35 which only gets like use and it has Red top on it must be12 years old and still starts it. Small kit you are limited. Some type of trickle charger just to keep them topped up.
  6. Out every attachment I have a set of pallet fork are the handest to shift stuff about, good for large lumps of timber as they weigh nothing so you can lift more.
  7. As Doobin has said. But earth leads may look good but unbolt them and clean up metal to get good contact. if battery terminal has screws holding in cable check them as well.
  8. What are you going to be moving mostly with it, I use muck grab on big open site to move brash and built a grab for moving brash and logs on other tight sites.
  9. Switch or fuse worth a look if battery ok.
  10. Will be like all the other fuel regs even the government doesn't know how it work's so how will we.
  11. Trapaflex are good had three 2mx3m for about 5years now used at least 3-4 days a week, Bit holy now need replacing but they haven't get any next batch do in December, got no idea how it would take that long to restock.
  12. We use large muck fork design for telehandler on loader tractor it's 7ft wide so clears a good path.
  13. My mate asked if I could give him a hand to move some coldstore panels, one had a plastic film on it he pull it from his end as I put my hand towards panel got one hell of a static shock.
  14. RED ROBIN PHOTINIA would work well and easy to maintain.
  15. Plant a hawthorn hedge years ago for a customer, plants were 60cm tall with massive root's once planted she said can you cut them back so we decide to cut them 4 inches high. Well what a hedge after about 5 years.
  16. Good setup on big site jobs, OK if you can get near timber before brash is moved.
  17. Captain Tom 100 challenge? His not doing to bad if his got to 30.
  18. If you look at phone cable it's hooked in tree so when growth is removed would hang low.
  19. If you have the money and the work buy the kit and put the money in your pocket not others,
  20. you need to evaluate what machine will suit sites you are going to work on, if large sites then big tractor if small blocks for woodland than small kit works well, also how far travel involved easy to put digger or small loader on trailer and move it about. A piece of machinery is no good with out a good driver.
  21. Alder, no that old so bark is smooth.
  22. Frost this morning sun shine by midday then snow shower after lunch, Was reducing a couple of Limes today with MEWP was bloody freezing then landed up climbing to get bits MEWP wouldn't reach was a bit warmer, long time since I climbed with over trousers over chainsaw trousers and not sweating.

  24. He chanced his luck and is now paying then. This company run a mog don't think they are on here but someone may no. https://m.facebook.com/greenworx2016/
