  2. Hi you chaps are you still keen for a meet up soon, Which place seems central to everyone? Josh
  3. Hi all tried it again today still not quite sure me and a climbing pal tied it with viper 8mm on New England hi vee, I can see done benifits but it just still doesn't seen as quick as the prussik for me yes you can haul up a long way in one go but hope you don't slip lol 😕 Just can't help but think the prussik combined with a pulley is simple cheap and very little to go wrong Would love a rec climb to try other wats though Josh
  4. I made mine it's easy 👍
  5. After the last one lol I do t think so mate maybe in a year or two!!
  6. Here's a pic if the fleet
  7. Where abouts are you? You tried range moors or stove center ?
  8. Was made for hard work 😃 All the logs they split is some I don't have to lol so happy days
  9. Fair enough mate, wasn't having ago at all Yes I bet they grow up fast
  10. Haha thanks bob I must add my parents seem to be addicted to splitting wood, god knows why maybe dads in a van all day so gives his something manual to do in the splitter but I'm not complaining 👍
  11. Yes me to
  12. That was my point if your charging by the hour how can you accurately quote/price the job?
  13. Surely it all boils down to a final day rate though to get your figure to charge per hour, ?? It will only earn you more if you charge more Jumping from £360 to £5/550
  14. Cool mate mines£110 1.5 m3 bit cheaper than you
  15. I don't win every quote no where near But how does staying at home and it walking the dogs pay the bills lol?
  16. I've worked hard saved even harder and bought my truck, chipper, splitter , quad , trailers , kit etc etc all outright without borrowing a penny, I guess it's the way I've been brought up Doing it my way if I do get or have a slack month in not tied into owing people money for kit I don't own, chipper or truck finances etc
  17. My point exactly , espicially if you can get a load or two of logs in a week, Take last Friday for example, We finished early, £360 Had a £40 job to do on wAy home Two loads if logs £220 My only expense was ground and fuel say £100 So I make around £500 that day that's how it goes I suppose I must be doing something right to own the kit I've got outright
  18. So how do you give the customer a price if you have it on the clock if you get what I mean, mines just a day rate, some days we fit more in but it's priced mainly so I price it fairly and we work steady, That way everyone knows were they stand including the customer
  19. Climbing saws 201t 12" &t540 xp14" Ground saws 2 x 346 xpg 15" Big saws 372xp 24" Ms 660dualport exhaust 30"

  22. Hi mate I'm keen, That pic of my bike covered In Shite was a practise enduro Sunday just gone I'm minehead ran by core enduro I would love to meet il with some fellow arbs for a tear around mate Imagine all the tree trucks lined up quality
  23. That's in on my price Agreed if it's a journey time and diesel is charged for Insurance is not mental Like I said would be interested to head a few more day rates from people
  24. I'm sure TCD would agree?!?!? What can you achieve a day mate?
