  1. How about 'Chalara fraxinea', very current and knowledge could put you in good stead for future?
  2. With a tipping degrees like that, dont reckon you'll be needing the fork to get last few bits out lol
  3. By the way I was first aid trained as a scuba instructor, but cut my teeth patching up loads of bad cuts etc on the free party scene in the early 90's with wasted falling over people. Quite a bit of it was quite messy and I got loads of complements for my patching skills from various A&E departments:001_smile: I was with Spiral Tribe and my old VW was the go to ambulance / ambiance:001_smile: You may well have have patched me up at some stage then albedo:thumbup:
  4. Ha, Victor Brox is a friend of my folks!
  5. Beats feeding a mature blackthorn through a TW150, sned up feed, get stuck, reverse, sned some more, feed, get stuck, reverse, sned some more..........

    spikes

    Kleins are very good spikes.
  7. I would love one of these machines. A contractor i do work for has several of these and i think they are good little machines that can lift a suprising amount. As said, go for the biggest you can afford. If yu have the work for an avant, it won't take long to earn its money. They tow well on an ifor williams or similar trailer. I don't know where in the country you are based, but if you google 'Affordable Access' (they are in Romsey, Hants), they hire these out with various attachments.
  8. Some factual points there justme. Thanks baz, yes I am vat registered and knew that delivery charge was at 20%. Always good to point these things out though. You have however reminded me that stacking charges will be at 20% which I didn't think of before.
  9. sorry to hear about yer audi jon, nice motor that mate
  10. Somerley golf course just north of ringwood will take woodchip
  11. Cheers samarb and rovers90
  12. Heard the same from my local dealer:confused1:
  13. Be sure to have confidence in your rope and equipment and in the technique you use.
  14. As geoff says, dont rush in to anything, take time to mull things over
  15. Unless the access is bad, i would not have thought you should be using a pedestrian stump grinder all day on one site (unless stumps are tiny), rather something larger. Unless of course its a one off job and you only own a pedestrian
  16. If you can avoid extra overheads then do, but sometimes it can be the best way to solve a problem and if its interest free then you are paying the same as if buying it out right.
  17. That would be good tony, my knowledge of funghi is very limited, need to know more:thumbup:
  18. Am I correct in thinking that VAT is charged at 5% on the sale of logs?
  19. I think that timberwolf are offering interest free finance at the moment.
  20. completeley depends on the size of the stump grinder. A pepestrian one i cant see being worth more than £25 per hr with a minimum charge of £50.
  21. There is a chap on ebay called paul (sorry dont know how to do a link) and he sell s recon carbs for £50 or if you send yours off he will do it for £25. If you have a problem finding him (if u want to) pm me cos i have his number somewhere
  22. Looks like you had a great day and learnt a fair bit too i imagine. I will come up in a few weeks for that tour of kew we spoke about, that is if it is not too soon since your last visit. Perhaps you could teach me some of what you learnt from rob and tony?
  23. Wifes knickers.
  24. Cheers Hoggin. Can you tell by the exhaust fumes also?
