...... a auger for our 1.5 ton digger I am doing a bit of research and asking on a few of the forums I am on We use our digger on our own jobs and hire out with a driver to other local business and the public.its not out every week maybe once a month. so its sat idle. I have been looking at buying a auger attachment. we don't do much fencing so my thoughts are hiring it out? do you think they is a market for it ? any one else hire one in or out? thanks Michael

If I am unsure how long it will take and want the job, i say to the customer that I will cut it first time for free and then quote them. Do the best job possible neat and tidy. This way you know how long it will take with your machines and the customer can see what they are paying for. as far as how often it needs cutting, every 7 days will keep it looking neat buy 14 days it will be ready for cutting. you want to charge per cut not by the hour

hondas cost alot to buy, parts cost loads, run slow, **** on wet or long grass, heavy (ally deck 55kg) but blade clutch (engine will run with blade not turning), neat cut, engines run for ever, cheap on fuel, easy starters, shaft driven we found that the engines are still good after 3 seasons hard work but the rest handles flap wheels bags cables springs start to go and cost too much to replace. we now run snappers the ones we have are 21 inch cut 3 speeds mulch blade, collect or spit out ally deck they have a robin 6,5hp belt driven. they have a drag flap which leaves strips in the right conditions. i like then because they cut grass fast and neat.a job which might have taken 30 mins with the honda takes 20 mins with the snapper. victas another good walk behind think they might have stop the 2 stroke models now which were the best 460 550 michael

i worked at a place which sold bare root conifers they sold alot by mail order. they also sold in pots. its not there any more. the reason i want bare root is cheapness compared to pot grown. pot grown = about 2.50 pound each 2 to 3 foot. bare root i would say between 40p to 1.00 each but abit smaller and have to be watched. i want about 100 in total leylandii can only be propagated by cuttings the seeds if any are no good. that is why they are mostly found in pots or root balled but some people do grow leylandii in fields for the bare root season like were i used to work its for a hedge to go round my yard.

the burner we have is a german spartherm one. its a large burner and it will go through a large barrow of mixed hard and soft logs most evenings. it warms half of the house.

this is how i would be thinking If he is a good customer selling your logs, give him a discount to keep his custom. does he come and collect them? if you was delivering them how much would it cost time and fuel? He could always take his money to another suppler and sell there logs to your customers???
