Alright then, Anyone had the throttle handle snap off before? If so has anyone replced it themselves? Wondering if I should bother trying myself or get my local forst specialist to do it. Obviously for more coin. Also is there a better parts website than spectrum? Cheers

Hey guys, Ive been watching educational climber on Youtube using a Maasdam rope puller to pull over trees. Ive been looking for one but they are so overpriced in the UK. Im not keen on rope systems using pully's as without loads of rope you can't stretch the system too far. What do most guys use in the UK?

Hey guys, Unfortunately I am getting kicked out my gaff which has space for my truck, chipper and spare room for all my tools. As much as it it pains me I am going to have I find a yard space around Bristol with somewhere to store the chipper and tools. Has anyone got any ideas or know anyone that has space? I'm sure both tools and chipper could fit in a decent sized container, but I would need that on a well protected site. Very paranoid of it all getting robbed obviously, happened once before! Cheers

Hey, Anyone had any experience using growth inhibitors on trees or hedges. A customer is asking what effects it would have on their topped conifers in order to slow down how often then need them cut to preserve the view. Conifers are there to stay before u say anything.....

I would like to preserve the branches for extra privacy from the neighbors

Hi I have a small row of Conifer trees. I want to kill them and grow ivy up them. I cant afford to trim them regularly to preserve my view. How would you recommend killing them? Thanks

Alright chaps, my friends has started using facebook recently and is getting a lot of work using his personal account to post before ad after pics and what not to promote his private jobs. He is joining loads of local groups in every area he works in and getting loads of veiws. I have a business profile and cant seem to join any local groups and when I post from the business profile theres no option to join or share to any. It just goes out to people who have liked my page. Does anyone know a way to join and share to local groups on the business profile like you can on a personal one?

I'm looking at getting one of these. Looking at its MOT history it failed on emissions then passed. Anyone got any ideas what it could be before I question him?

Also what would people recommend as a minimum milage?

Hi, Looking to get a new transit tipper style van. Looking spend around 15k on it as I dont want it breaking down every month. Im pretty weary of spending that much money on something from ebay or fb marketplace. What are some of the best sites? Ive exhausted TruckLocator and Autotrader Cheers

So im looking for cheap options on how to stop the woodchip spray off the my back box when chipping into my truck. I currently just have two high walls on the side and the back wall has holes in it. Even once the holes are covered though, chip still sprays off onto the roof and street, even when I raise the bed when chipping. Im thinking of some sort of canvas roof creation just on the end near the cab to stop the spray, or maybe just making something out of ply but im trying my best not to look like a dodgey tree assasin. Anyone got any better more elegant ideas?

Hi Guys, So I've been trying recently to minimize admin and keep things organized so im looking for other peoples ideas on how to streamline the admin, management, scheduling and accounting side of things whilst sharing mine. My current system starts off using google sheets as my initial lead capture process as it loads up quick on both computer and phone, . As I talk to a potential lead on the phone or whilst reading their email I jot in their deets. Thats then organised by colour as the lead goes from quote to job to paid. you can also click on a phone number and u have the option to call and click on an address and have the option to load it up in maps. such a time saver. Its also free. I use Powered now as a scheduling/quote/invoice app to automatically generate quotes and invoices and also schedule in customers using its diary. its a very easy to use app. customer data is stored in the app and it works seamlessly. It can also generate graphs n what not to track profit, however I dont input all my expenses as that side it slightly cumbersome. Although its still 20 quid a month well spent considering the time it saves me. This leads me to the final piece of the puzzle that I haven't yet quite nailed down. I've found an app lets you take a pic of receipts that uploads and appropriately organizes them and you can also forward your email invoices to a separate personal email address, given to you when you sign up and it will take all that info and the organise it as well within the app, creating an expense portfolio with minimal input effort. Sounds like a good app at only about 7 a month but still researching other options. Be good to hear and share others systems. Ive only been doing this a year so still finding my feet. My main goal is to minimize data entry time as it bores the hell out of me!

Anyone tried the stein one designed by reg coats? Know how it compares to this? This one looks great and I can easily see how it would pay for itself in no time!!

Has anyone got a log trolley in the Bristol area I could rent for a couple days in the near future. Paying 400 seems crazy just for one job Any other ideas on cheap log trolley imitations welcome Cheers
