Kirklees refusal to allow arisings to be burned on site
Joe Newton replied to jonrob's topic in Tree health care
They don't get to stipulate what happens to the arisings. The only issue would be if you burn it yourself it's classed as burning industrial waste, which you would need a permit for. The homeowner however is allowed to burn green waste that originated on the property, providing there are no local regulations against it. -
On your person you just need a CAT, Israeli bandage and Celox guaze. Anything else is non urgent and can stay in the site kit.

You're probably looking at a minimum of £500 in materials for Cobra before you even pay someone. I can do it for you if the money is right 👍

Well you can't blame me for thinking that. You've earned your reputation fair and square 🤣

I reckon he fell out of it pissed

Few days going 11 years climbing, West Midlands area
Joe Newton replied to Alexemes's topic in Employment
Cracking climber is Alex, highly recommend. Bit quiet round us at the moment isn't it mate? -
You using the snake method for keeping a sustained burn John? Any wood chips with the charcoal?

Is that beef short rib in the last pic? I did a 6 hour smoke on short ribs last year which turned out well. Here's me dinner tonight, 15 minutes and delicious.

Read this back when you've slept off your Friday night shandies.

Plenty of people work under this arrangement. Yet more valuable contribution from you.

No there's another bloke on the Arbtalk website pushing a podcast about how his company failed and he rebuilt it again. He's also offering a consortium of an industry leaders to help further the arb sector. All very inspiring stuff and all but that's not the same guy. I'd hazard a guess that the rotund northern dough ball did a bit in college and maybe a bit of ground work before ducking out and starting a podcast instead. If I seem grumpy I've had a hard couple of days.

I can't see how that's feasible for a tree company owner to be honest.

There's no need to get upset.

It's one of those funny things. You can't blame anyone else for it, it's up to you. If you want to go visit then you've got to accept losing a day to quote. If you're not bothered about getting it then give the bloke a day rate and perhaps an estimate of days based on the info provided. I don't understand why you would feel hard done by.

I reckon that splinter was already in the syringe.

Yeah it was all lovely until the clinch 🤣 Yeah it was. Another calculated match by Fury. One of the undercard fights was pretty decent too.

The other thing that I've noticed people struggle with is the air filters get clogged super easy. A lot of guys I know struggle with running issues because they're just brushing off the physical dust, but oily residue clogs fine mesh filters better than sawdust. Do you clean the air filter out regularly with an airline? If not buy yourself a couple of tins of carb cleaner to spray on it. Watch the oil dissolve. It's nasty stuff so you know it works, just watch your eyes. 🤣 it's a great learning curve when you're finding out about how saws work!

This. Mark beat me to it. I reckon a few decent shots would see you eating fibreglass @Mark_Skyland do you stock the jameson green ones?
-
I was toying with the idea of getting one but the design flaw with the top spring is offputting. I'd probably still go for the BDB if I was to choose between them.
-
That's more than a bit shit. It's almost like Notch don't actually know anything about the products they're selling...
-
The old "changed his password" trick?

This should be interesting... It's fair to say that you've been dismissed by a few including myself as an irritating poster with little merit to the conversation that makes this forum enjoyable to many. This has possibly been because of your dismissive or provocative attitude to the time served tree workers who have wasted their time replying to you when it doesn't suit your narrative. It's nothing to do with your lack of arb background. There's plenty of long standing contributors who aren't in the arb industry specifically. It's to do with your attitude. You ask for opinions and demand credentials from those who reply, and yet you offer nothing in return. This whole post is pointless though. People like yourself are incapable of introspect.

The tm has loads of adjustment. It'll be fine at your size. I was there once. Whatever harness you get make sure you do a bit of research on how to correctly set it up for you. That's probably more important than which brand of harness you choose
-
Outstanding, thanks for pointing that out! Not many scarier thoughts than having a constant open line of communications with your children!
-
Well that's a joke considering their using their tech. Most of the guys I work with that have comms use sena. Probably because there's a really good bloke locally who fits them to your lids and does a great job. The benefit of sena is that I can pair to one other non-sena headset if I need to. I've also got a little sena headset (no helmet, just a headband) that I picked up for £120 that I can give to a crane driver if needed.
