  5. I see your point , il get that sorted thanks for the feedback otherwise I wouldn't of noticed Cheers Dan
  6. http://Www.dcanegardeningservices.co.uk Hint and tips welcome so let us know what you think ?!
  7. Cheap tipper buddy , get the ball rolling for you , no shovelling out chip if say u hire a chipper , no dragging brush etc off . Go for something that won't break the bank but will earn you money , save as much as you can and remember Rome wasn't built in a day and neither will your business . All the best buddy Dan
  8. They look similar to a spline that would go into a gearbox of some sort Asin like what you get on the ends of driveshafts ??
  9. I find it acceptable , you work together , it's a thing called helping ?! The view on customers is that a customer picks who they think is the better of the two their choice . If however a customer was to ask you about another Job and you handed out one of your own business cards without saying well actually this is his job I'd be a bit pissed . Like I say at the end of the day it's the potential customers choice on who they choose to pick , infant they would probably try you both and see who's cheaper Dan

    Efco MT3700

    I use a mt3700 for logs although for the size u said you would most likely be cutting they bog down too much , although for smaller logs their ideal I run the powersharp 14inch , again ideal for this as it's a quick sharpen , blades are pretty cheap and saves time on filing
  11. Does look nice in white but I can see that getting grubby as hell pretty quickly and showing up every scratch and mark
  12. Only 21 so not me haha , fair play to you lads though !
  13. Thanks guys all helps We'll recommend Magic signs in ash vale for the sign writing ! http://magicsigns.co.uk
  14. Nice one dogman hopefully it all goes well for you I say large number of customers ... 15 to be exact but for just me myself and I it's a large enough number for now although I never turn anything down
  15. Just as a precaution being 21 they pull you over and check anything and everything , I sometimes also carry stuff like plastics etc from garden clearances so for £150 odd pound for three years I thought why not instead of taking the risk Cheers for the feedback guys !
  16. After saving and saving I'm finally happy with what I've got Public liability (tick) Waste carriers licence (tick) Van (tick) Own tools and signage (tick) Large number of regular customers (tick) However any suggestions on these topics ??

    Yards...

    £650 + rates and it goes up by 5% each year ! Coming out of it the end of this month Can no longer burn Practically a mud bath Been broken into and landlord doesn't seem too care even after being their 7 years and doing various work for him ! Paying for CCTV that occasionally works Pay for usage of toilets but yet the cespit ( can't spell ) takes in rain water and overflows and stinks like mad in the summer Single track entrance so if someone's already half way up the lane one of you has too reverse all the way back Maybe I'm just too picky but for £650 + rates a month surely I'm allowed to be ?!
  19. Just a few I have done and remembered to take pictures of in 2013
  20. Wore my shorts most the day so can't be bad here in Hampshire/surrey area
  21. I personally don't care what colour the rope is as long as it keeps me in the tree and not falling to my death I'm happy
  22. Suns shining and blue sky's down my way today , but for how long ?!
  23. Merry Christmas too everyone on arbtalk Have a good time and stay safe From all the staff at D.Cane Gardening Services
  24. Personally I won't work as it's a time to be with family and to switch off , however if someone desperately needed my help in an emergency ie: road traffic accident involving a tree which needed to be removed to save someone's life then yes Bit O.T.T example but you get the idea Anyways stay safe everyone and most importantly have a very Merry Christmas Dan
