  1. Felled a 110ft Douglas and milled it into beams to extend my yard with. It was dinging it down with hail and snow all day.
  2. Honestly, it's too much to look at in one go, the prints a bit small too. Can you break it down into pages/sections/services ?
  3. Huge difference, I actively avoid companies that charge and call Inverness postcodes exotic !! Been quoted up to £50 to send a chain or parcel that size to me. Great idea !
  4. Hi Pete I'm in need of this course too if I can piggy back onto it and boost the numbers
  5. Something different today, spot of root protection fencing.
  6. Hi Mark, We're in Elgin if you think it's worth it I'm happy to have a chat about it. How would you go about it ? Do you have any pics of one similar ?
  7. I have this big hunk of Yew and was looking for ideas and inspiration from more talented folks about what to do with it. Been sat at the yard for 2 years, now it's in the way and I can't firewood it. Something will be done this week. Cheers
  8. Aye I'm back in my place. Fair play to Skyland not taking advantage and profiteering on postage.
  9. I had some sycamore that was covered in Ivy, a 30 ton splitter struggled to get through it
  10. Just tried the link on my iPhone and got this
  11. Having never milled before or even seen someone do it, I bought one of these mills and gave it a go on this cherry I had. Found it harder work than I thought it would be, haven't worked out what I'll do with the boards yet.
  12. Even if you get them to sign a clause saying they'll stay X amount of time you would never get that money back and the lawyers fees wouldn't make it worth it. You would have to pay wages as there employed. Self employed no.
  13. Oak tree that was suffering from compaction and urban stress. Air spaded the roots, treated with pottasium phosphyte, biochar and a mulch. Then dead wood and retrenchment pruning. Hope it doesn't fall over tomorrow : )
  14. If you send your kit to a chap to LOLER your climbing kit and something fails do you expect him to return it with a fail certificate or cut it and dispose of it ? Cheers
  15. Got the vault today. Really good quality for the price, no way anyone could break into without cutting gear. Plenty room for gear. Really happy
  16. Sounds reasonable, I'll get my wallet out.
  17. How much kit can you fit in ? Will the side handles take the weight of being lifted in via hiab ?
  18. Which witch ? I have seen that but reckon for cost of postage to north Scotland might as well get new new
  19. I'm looking for a new tool vault to lift onto the 7.5 tonner to store a couple of saws and climbing kits. Does anyone have any experience of either of these?

  20. I'm on my hols in Mull just now but will pm you some pics when I get back
  21. New homemade exhaust muffler, and updated springs fitted
