  1. I’m looking to find a program that I can create a fillable form template that can be used with check boxes, drop down lists for risk assessments that can then be filled out on an iPad. there’s a few about, but looking for someone who has had good success with one. Cheers
  2. Anyone able to sort me out with a timber drop site Nympsfield, Stroud way? couple van loads of Conny rings and cord. checked the directory but not much going.
  3. I was asked a question by a client today who has a 3m high leylandii hedge near a neighbours house/garage which is potentially causing minor subsidence on one corner. The soil is on shrinkable clay, so there could be a case. The hedge has been well kept and the client was keen to keep the hedge but mitigate the issue. While talking over a few options, the question asked was if they could water the ground regularly over the dryer seasons to reduce the effects of subsidence. I’m sure in order to do this, you would need a monitored and sophisticated system to ensure the soil moisture content was brought back to field capacity and maintained there, which I would image is near enough impossible. But if it could be done, would it actually work?
  4. What’s the biggest bar you can get away with on a 660 with an Alaskan without needing another oiler?
  5. Any climbers or groundies looking to fill a few days in the coming months. Majority of work is Cheltenham area. Message for details.
  6. It’s 20ft, maybe 22, but it’s in a barn with limited space for lifting inside and turning when out in the yard. Needs to move from one site to another. We put it in with a telehandler using poles, but was thinking if it was on wheels it would save a lot of faff. The place it’s going into has just been built and I don’t want to make a mess of the new screed floor.
  7. Anyone got a set of shipping container wheels to sell or hire? Or know of somewhere that does? There’s a few options online, but will only be needed to move a container from one site to another, so if I can avoid buying new would be ideal. Ive used the telegraph pole method but looking for something more manoeuvrable in a tight spot, with minimal ground damage due to a new screed floor.
  8. Hi, Any ideas on this fungus, at the base of a privet. Consistency like jelly.
  9. Don’t think it’s a Rhody, I didn’t see any buds. I did think Cockspur, or some sort of Sorbus, but being evergreen I couldn’t find anything similar
  10. Apologies for the poor photos. They’ve been sent over to me
  11. Hi. Anyone able to give some insight on this one. Looks like some sort of cotoneaster, but very unsure
  12. Hi, Im looking for a green waste site near Walthamstow London, that can take cuttings and brash. I have checked the chip site directory but only one site has it and Im not sure its suitable. Ive been asked to do some work for a mate there, and would like not to have to take the chipper down as its a bit of a trip and not sure on parking/storage. Anyone able to help? might be a van load. cheers
  13. Looking for any subbie climbers for work in Cheltenham area over the next couple of months. Must have relevant tickets, Ppe and own climbing kit. Must also have own transport to get to work site. Message me for a chat.
  14. Hi. Has anyone ever added to their ally planking sides successfully? I built a tipper back a while ago using ally planks from service metals. Really it could have done with being another plank higher. I’m wandering if it’s possible to dismantle/unclip the top plank without damaging it to install another below? Or if there is another way to do it? Maybe slide out? Cheers
