  1. Or both. A reasonable CCTV package is available from napkins. Options to suite most budgets. I'm lucky as my storage is outside my house and alarmed but also connected to the estate I rent my house from and the alarm is monitored 24/7 by ex gurkers. I've still gone for pir alarms and about a grands worth of CCTV which includes installation and I can control and view it on my phone, it also alerts me if there is motion detected. It'll be the best money you ever spend. It helped me sleep at night! Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App

  7. I run husky's and have run them on stihl oil for years. It's what fr jones gave me when I first bought my 357. Now my local dealer is stihl. No issues at all. I'm cynical but sounds like they might be being a bit tight..... Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App

  9. It will have a value, but the time and energy to hand cut, process and extract I'd guess with forwarder access will be around £20-25t without a forwarder who knows. I've just had a site clearing 15yo pine and there really isn't alot of weight to it. About 10t ha max with max dbh of 10cm. Less efficient to process too. If its something you tickle for personal use maybe..... Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App
  10. Sounds like a very useful tool for today's conservation style thinnings. I'd like to see one of those. Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App
  11. I'd look into creating one large extraction rack at the top and winch upto it using a petrol capstan winch. Herringbone the trees in the racks for easier choking. Then use a machine for final extraction though at 15yo I can't see a value in it so I'd get a tracked chipper and leave it on site..... Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App
  12. What's the site like? Any roads? Species n size? Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App
  13. The mulcher blade also mulches better with the proper guard. The material gathers and gets mulched. Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App

    3phase 10" free standing belt sander. Offers? North notts Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App
  19. I would look for a reasonable second hand alpine(reverse drive) with a trailer. You've then got the options to add other implements for other work. Mowing/flail work. Fencing etc. If its too steep then hire one in with an operator. I think you'll find on production work over conservation, where timber is used to offset the cost of an operation rather than pay for it with profit..... The Alstor will struggle!

  20. Of the 160t I had left maybe one artic load. Where in notts are you? Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App

  24. I think so too but so long as you've enough to pay the bills, a bunch of flowers for the missus and a cold one at the end of the week you'll be getting experience that money can't buy. So some folks will say its not worth it but belive me. If it pays the bills and doesn't cost you anything it's a good day! Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App
  25. Also, make sure the trees are of a reasonable size! At best you're looking @ £13t into the wagon. You've got to fell and extract and chip and make a profit out of £13t you might scrape it if you were fully mech harvesting. I think you might struggle a wee bit. That's not saying you shouldn't. You'll make a wage and get the experience. Have fun, pick your cutters carefully! Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App
