  2. employed, so holiday etc its actually 120 but i get a pickup to use as mine, only pay for fuel, so reckon thats worth a tenner a day. But only got the offer when i said i was leaving, had to except it!
  3. Thanks logrod

  5. Anyone have any advice on good insurance company's?
  6. friend has a plum tree he wants me to look at. A large lower limb has snapped out leaving a large deep wound in the trunk, ideally he'd like to keep the tree but worried its unsafe. Im thinking reduce it hard, or light reduction and thin. If they respond to being reduced hard i'd rather go down that route... Any advice Thanks smudge
  7. haha shane that would help
  8. yeah thinking i might just remove the wheels... only use it a couple of times a week. does anyone know if it would be ok to leave jacked up rather than use the winter wheel tyre savers. Thanks peat for the suggestion
  9. Hi does anyone have any good advice on what wheel clamp to get for chipper? Got a second hand chipper and the fear of the bastard thieves has kicked in
  10. thanks i'll give it a go monday.
  11. Getting a second hand saw for chogging and ringing up, cant decide on 362 or 440. Have a 200t and eventually getting 66. What do you reckon would be best for a middle saw? I currently use a 362 but never used the 440
  12. Thanks Jesse, I'm just worried about it being stolen if new
  13. Thanks pete thats a great help
  14. Ive started climbing with a spiderjack, loving every aspect of it. My only problem is if it sat a little lower id get more of a pull. I use a skylotec harness and wondered if anyone had any suggestions on how to reduce the distance of the sj to bridge? Tried shortening the bridge but then have lack of movement, anyone else had this problem?
  15. Hi, im looking at a second-hand refurbished timberwolf 150 tomorrow to buy, its done 1100 on the clock and has a new engine which has done 100. Not to good with mechanics so was thinking if there's anything in particular i should look out for. I use one every day so know how they sound run etc and have some various sized wood to run through it. Is there anything else i should check for? thanks smudge
  16. the skafells do look nice..
  17. soz edwood just saw reply
  18. hmmm tricky one. Anyone tried the arbotek scafell
  19. Hi looking into getting some new boots. Had meindl airstream two times running, love them but want to try something new. I tend to climb more than ground so something aimed more for the climber would be good. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
  20. excellent bit of kit, would never go back to scabbard on harness. Only slight niggle is rope sometimes gets hooked over handle.
  21. Cheers, I'll give them a bell tommorow
  22. Hi all Im looking into buying a chipper, preferable a jenson or timberwolf 6" within the 750kg limit, my budget is 6000. I would consider other makes but thats what im familiar with and know the most about. does anyone know of any good dealers in the southeast area, or have one for sale themselves? Any advice on other chippers would be appreciated, seen a few kwikchips going but dont know much about them. Thanks
