How many m is half a season? Half a mile/800m? £25 / 800 = just over 3p/m...

The seller has never sold anything before (which is not neccesarily a bad thing, but also doesn't seem to have bought anything obviously foresty or arby ever on that account). What make/model is it, anyone know?

That wimmer looks like a 5th wheel trailer so either its an artic or a mini artic (b+e 5th wheel, quite common in mainland Europe) which would mean it could be up to about 5.5t on a normal car plus trailer license.

I think such offers can work and be fair, but not in this business. Selling goods is quite a different matter, esp when sold by a retailer (so the product is equal). Selling a service, a craft, knowledge etc as we do cannot so easily be compared. Yes, a tree disappeared from the garden is just that but how that happened makes a difference. How does the lawn look afterwards, was anything damaged (and if so, how is it dealt with) was the work done safely and were the people adequately trained (technically the responsibility of the person paying), how was the interaction between workers and client, neighbors, passers by etc. All these things are to be taken into consideration, and then we haven't even got to quality of work when doing anything but straight removal, tree knowledge, aftercare, advice, the list is endless...

This is correct.

Here you go, Vegan Chainsaw boots:Vegan Chain Saw Boots Ethical Wares They seem to be quite well regarded and are quite cheap as well.

Is a Kilmarnock the little weeping one? If so, I'd try to make sure the pot is bigger than the "head" of branches/leaves. I'd try and get as big a root-ball as you can manage. If it's temporary one of those flexible garden trug bucket things is excellent and available in a few different sizes. As Steve says, water it plenty.

Sugi bars are excellent, very good value for money. If you're just having a go to see if you like it, I'd find an old ms180 or a new 181. Plenty of grunt for carving and much easier to handle. If its not for you then it'll sell on ebay for not much less than new price.

Sorry Jonathan, I though I'd replied to this but must have not hit "send" button. It is harder to reverse but just takes a little practice. Correcting a mistake is the easier, ie it takes less going forward again to get it back inline. I do more little corrections. I've not noticed any difference in surface (and I can't see why on would think hardcore would make reversing harder?) I can reverse mine just fine with a defender 90, but much better with a vehicle that has a turning circle of less than 12acres. Easier with a vehicle that has some distance between the rear axle and the towbar. Its easier to hook up when empty, as the drawbar can easily be moved side to side. You can also do some cheating. I had to deliver a shed in a narrow lane with only just enough space to park the trailer without the vehicle. so drove in one way, parallel parked (much easier) parked towtug down the road and offloaded. When we left we just put the car beside the trailer but in the opposite direction, pulled the drawbar round, hooked on and drove off. Baffled faces from the customer, big grin on the drivers face. I changed the towbar on the landy as any play in the system is annoying. I had a height adjustable and they always have some play. Fine with a fixed drawbar but without any nose weight it rattled a lot. So I simply changed the pins for big bolts and welded some thin shims in.

I drove a chassis cab merc lorry from Nottingham to Harwich, crossed to NL on the ferry, then across the Netherlands to Germany. Saw quite a few police, had customs check at both ends and all was fine. Don't know if its technically legal though...

I think it's a rubbish idea:lol: I'll get my coat...

There's a picture of mine here http://arbtalk.co.uk/forum/large-equipment/66872-3-5t-turntable-trailer-2.html behind a defender 90, it's a 5m bed for scale. I doubt it would bottom out but then I've not seen your road. If your going to Germany anyway, have a look at what the German farmers use..

Why would that happen? I reckon mine is better off road than a rigid three axle would be. It also has the advantage of being able to jackknife the dolly if the trailer gets stuck, then when pulling again the car can build a little momentum before the trailer gets going again.

With my turntable I can reverse it around a corner less than 90 degrees, as the dolly part can turn past right angles, with a fixed drawbar a bit more tan 90 degrees is the absolute minimum as you're jackknifing. To illustrate:

Quite hard actually, as the sides don't slide like a "proper" cutainsider but just open at the bottom and sides. There is no facility for keeping the sides rolled up (it would need straps both inside and outside) I have done it once when I had a long empty drive by folding the sides on top then putting straps all the way around the roof. Quite a lot of hassle. On mine the headboard was solid but it looks like on the one in the link it's all tarp? if so driving with the sides open would give a high chance of the tarp getting ripped off as it's main fixing points are the same that keep the sides on. But for me the main "sail" issue was more the fact it used much more fuel than after I took it off, making the Landy struggle with a headwind in the flat whilst empty...

I used to have one very similar, and found it very heavy to tow when windy.... Probably fine behind a van of similar size but behind my vehicle or the landrover it doubled the amount of "sail". I now have a turntable trailer, and I can reverse it too (in ways quite impossible with a fixed drawbar trailer)

What for? Not meaning to pry, I'm just insatiably curious. :smile:

Crane at the back would also limit load length.

Why? In the case of 365's there is no reason or logic to follow:biggrin: You'd have to be quite sad to know it all by hart:sneaky2: Anyway, from the 365 special owners manual:

I've been bitten on the toe after standing on one whilst barefoot (was walking through peat, very good for foot issues) and it was like a bee sting. Forgotten about it an hour later and no I'll effects. Same field a few months later we had a cow die after she got bitten on the neck and it swelled so much she choked.

Sorry, I forgot to edit my post after I'd decided against making a pedantic point about whether your business is called "sheasby's" or "sheasby tree surgery ltd". I'd rolled that in with the fact that the header on all your pages states tree surgey, not surgery:001_smile:

Damn, too slow:biggrin: I've used it on hay, straw, wood and even a load of wool. It does not get any condensation build up, but you do have to make sure water doesn't pool.
