  1. Thanks, I have the table but I misunderstood it, Does anyone know of any training providers that offer this
  2. I need to redo my first aid certificates as they appear to have lapsed by a few years . Looking the changes in requirements from the FC I think that as a Supervisor / Harvester I require the 3 day First Aid at Work - FAW - and the additional add on to cover severe chainsaw cuts, crushing etc the +F part. Firstly is this correct? secondly can anyone reccomend anywhere decent in the south east to do the FAW and the +F add on? Thanks
  3. Rough idea of how much I should be paying per metre/cubic foot for oak standing, average quality and size, access isnt bad. Thanks David
  4. Hi guys, I know its not a great amount of wood but its more the principle. I had about 6-8 tons of seasoned softwood stolen at some point over the weekend from a site about 10 mins north of gatwick, about 3metre lengths and up to 20" diameter. The vechicle broke an indicator and possibly a window smashing through the gate. If anyone is offered any or has any information please contact me Thanks David
  5. thanks for the replies, our yard move have now been delayed so I wont be needing anything in the near future, I will contact the listed people when we have moved in

  7. Looking to hire a chipper that will produce good quality G30 grade chip a few times a year, trying to find anyone that has one that they hire out and average prices and outputs per day? Thanks
  8. thanks, I have worked it out like that in the past, just wanted to check it was correct and see it there was a shorter way of calculating, guess ill jut have to keep the calculator handy
  9. does anyone know an easy way of calculating the cubic meter of cordwood? I know 8x4x4 is roughly 2.4 meters. but what if I have different sizes such as 6ft length? Cheers
  10. I sent it away to be rebuilt by the guy that advertises on E-bay. I think I will try the rubber fuel hose as it is quite cheap. sometimes it starts, sometimes it doesnt when cold, it will rev up but idle badly and then stall and usually not start when warm
  11. I want to rebuild my Ms200T as its starting to play up, not starting, bad idle ect, i have allready changed, plug, filters and had the carb rebuild by somone. im guessing all thats left to change is: fuel pipe piston and rings Anything else I should look for? What additional bits do I need if I am changing piston and rings? David
  12. Cheers, would requiring longer drying affect price? would waiting till autum be better? Cheers
  13. Hi guys, I have a felling job coming up this summer of about 10-15 oaks, proably around 60-80cm DBH (a guess as I havent measured) all would be naturally woodland grown. any ideas of price to be expected per cubic metre/foot? and secondly any ideas of buyers, the site is around 10mins north of Gatwick Airport and it would need to be collected from roadside. Thanks David
  14. Hi guys, took the handle off my 200t today to fix the on off switch ( wire came off), when I was reconnecting it my big clumsy hands knocked everything else out of the handle. I have managed to re attach all the linkages however there is no distinct difference between choke, half choke and on. any ideas what I might have done? Im assuming something to do with the metal springs but no real idea? Cheers
  15. Cheers, sounds like it will be ok then, does anyone have a link to an exploded diagram of one? Cheers
  16. I have been offered a fransgard 6000 winch with a faulty clutch, Can anyone tell me the spec of the winch ie. strength of pull,Hp required and approximate model age, secondly how hard replacing the clutch is and if spares are available Thank you

Im happy to hire with or without an operator just need to find one. if anyone has any other suggestions then im all ears. Cheers
