I quoted for a job to dispose of a wind blown tree in a blokes garden . The guy said its too much . my gardener will do it . I said fare play , that's fine . Three weeks later I got a call . " can you come and clear up this tree my gardener has made a start so should be cheaper than your original quote . Well I thought ok you are a nice bloke I will come back again and have another look . The price I gave him was more than my original quote . The " gardener " had stripped the stick and piled all the brash every wich way and to about 6" long . This is a nightmare to sort and put through the chipper . ( should have stacked it blunt end first and as long as possible ) on top of that there was his ( the gardener ) garden center chain saw stuck in the stick where he had no idea of the tension and compression involved in the fallen trunk . The job was 2 maybe 3 times as long totally necessarily because he thought the gardener was helping to keep the cost down .

All I can tell you , from experience , is you can look down a dead strait track and see nothing and within a few seconds a train is on you !

Yes but the OP said can you point to someone who can " teach me " ....

As has been said you will need DSC1 and DCS2 . For example if you draw a bead on a beast and don't notice that there is one directly behind it in silhouette, you will fail . You might kill the front animal but will horribly injure the one behind .

That's why I thought it must be a wind up .

The fresh cut face of Alder becomes sorta orange after a short period ( mins ) and then slowly ( weeks later ) eventually just goes grey .

Kirklees refusal to allow arisings to be burned on site
Stubby replied to jonrob's topic in Tree health care
Ask them if they would condone you breaking the rules by taking the brash away and burning/chipping it somewhere else . And could you please have it in writing . -
