  1. They are great! One thing you could use it for work wise is a portfolio of work. Just load it up with images of past jobs and when you pop round to do quotes just show off your handy work. There are tons of good apps too! easy-lift guy is right though without internet it's a bit limited!
  2. We are! She had a great dry sense of humor top lady!
  3. If you must choose between two evils, pick the one you've never tried before. Never underestimate the power of stupid people in large groups. Today's mighty oak is just yesterday's nut that held its ground.
  4. AND met Princess Anne! we got a commendation in the Technical innovations awards. Dead chuffed there were all these big firms with there amazing tractor mounted bits of kit and then us with the sawhorse. Princess Anne wanted one for the hubby but I did not have the balls to thrust a card into her hand not sure how that would have gone down with the protection squad!

  10. It does look a lot but I guess they have to have insurance and if they are making jigs for welding and patents etc. it all flipping ads up!
  11. We use a cone to split lengths then cut. We just used a forklift with bags tied to it the saw horse was on the slop to the left. Made the angles work when loading the bags easy Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App
  12. Petzl have been posting the recall via facebook and Twitter. They are pretty fast with this sort of thing.
  13. We cut everything it's all firewood. I understand the need for quality assurance but I also think customers are happier if they know its all used instead of burned or chipped. There has to be a market for smaller bits in the same way supermarkets are selling odd fruit and veg Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App

  23. How fast is your branch logger? I want to see if it's faster than out truncator for making bags. Is yours a welmac one? they look pretty good. Also are they expensive?
  24. You should be fine transferring docs etc as that's not windows that has the compatibility issues it's office! You should be able to network the two together and then just copy everything accros. If you are having problems with opening docs, spreadsheets etc. get openoffice it's free openoffice.org and more importantly it can open ANY office document so you can transfer
