  1. when i was at college we were given husky 136 to climb with.tell you what it teaches you your cuts,who needs a top handle anyway lol..... you have to learn to use a saw before buying a toppa or you will chop a bit off....
  2. what and then sell it?.........that would be best.....
  3. no ticket no saw, if your supplied a saw by someone with a ticket and you do not have one it defeats the purpose of the requirements to be able to purchase such tools.......especially by an employer to employee for his kid......tut tut... tell yer wot im gunna go out and get a locksmith to buy me a set of picks as i may complete college but i doubt it.....
  4. yes but do the leaves belong to the neighbours? if so then returning them without bags is acceptable no?
  5. if the leaves are bagged up then that is littering,would it not be best to empty the bags over the fence and keep em?
  6. cant say ive ever been weighed in an arb truck,them nkr wagons do ok with a load but you would be best getting the 7.5t isuzu as then it has a decent cab and you wont be overloaded. the trans h it is the best way for the least money to carry the biggest load, i would get the 7.5t ....
  7. so is it an offence to leave the saw on light rev in the neighbours sound area? their very rude and i have to work.....
  8. just ran into a trailer as they had no singage out....retards...
  9. might help if they put signs up.....
  10. had to chase em a bit for sh1t work bill paying....any one else got isssues??
  11. why did she touch it?i would of used a shovel from the fire or summat ...
  12. haix are pants,steins are made by alico i think and are very good compared to haix junk.
  13. im on maintenance today if i can get to work lol,...
  14. gosh,putting the 66 in the wagon today......might have to cut my way into work today...
  15. kelp and other stuff that kills pain..... works a treat,
  16. 2 man team +kit on domestic dismantle is 500 a day to win most jobs round here ..... any more than that and its another man day .so averageing out as 250 per man day seems to get the work.with some short days but still full price as they stop any other work being done that day. thats just trimming....tree removal is done on size and weight along with access.we just paid 150 quid last 2 days to park the rig at the front of the property so there is allways other factors to consider.
  17. comfort is paramount full stop,being a groundie beeatch i bend over alot and dont like giraffes up me jacksy so also wera a bib n brace, i have some old oregon ones that are ok but... just purchased a set of these ...to great effect,i asked in the store and the guy was quite suprised i asked for them,said he hasnt sold a bib n brace in years...they seem quite tough so far....
  18. +1,put in the washing machine on 40 c and it will be fine...also claim for new kit as being arb approved you keep your fuel seperate from fuel....
  19. people that dont live in houses getting firewood,common damage round the midlands....
  20. buy one there top,heavy to transport and fit but...
  21. hmmmmm yep but the local scrappy i know has a young son driving audi R8...
  22. run a redirect from the GCRS so the operator is out the way,yes it does seem able to overload stuff but used nicely i dont see how it can be not worth haveing, the bit i like best is getting the brash or log to the ground and cutting it up before it lands,the reduction on damage to lawns etc when chogging down is 100%
  23. yep good work, personally i would leave the existing bridge in place if it dont bother,could be usefull as a strop point. them swivels help alot when you have to turn round. so long as your happy to work the harness then go for it,every person should be able to grade their own kit to a standard far higher than the polotics of regulations say we have to work too...
