  1. Quickie are the market leaders by far, there are a huge step up from mx both in usability and easy of dropping off.
  2. We drop ours all the time, 2 min and it’s off, makes working when you don’t need it far nicer
  3. Are yes, the reward system to nudge us towards cashless so “the man”can have it all back once we are there!
  4. We have decided “Life would be easy if it wasn’t for other people” soon as someone else sticks there nose in the job goes wrong!
  5. I would be looking at getting a camera up and sorting the security issues we all put off or getting a high seat and rifle
  6. Let it do its thing, it’s young and flexible, the chance of wind damage is low. If yew prune it now you will be forever pruning it as it will shoot out all over the shop and get more spikey
  7. Sequoia of some sort would be my first guess, also using the trees in the background as a reference. The colour isn’t far off yew but the bark isn’t right
  8. Loud pipes save lives 🤣
  9. The spikes look handy on some steep forestry sites tho 🤔 I’ve never been convinced saw boots are really worth the money to only really protect the bit covered by you trousers
  10. I store sawdust in my pockets, they auto empty as soon as I get indoors, gives the Mrs something to do and something to moan about!
  11. When it happens can I play the monkey?
  12. Or Canada. In fact do 6 months in each, I bet by the time you get round you won’t be back here but with some Swedish blonde on a beech in oz or something along these lines 🤣
  13. 14mm line will cover most things to start. The biggest favour you will do your self if funds allow is to get a fixed bollard over a portawrap. So much better for almost every occasion apart from when it’s one branch to do quick but only due to quicker set up. If your mind it set on the portawrap go bigger for the dead eye, 16 - 18mm for both the portawrap and main block.

    Jokes???

  17. I’ve found Henchman have the best hole spacing, we had 1 of another make and sold it on to buy another Henchman one, can’t remember what make it was but it just wouldn’t adjust the same was always to little or to much.
  18. Tripod with 3 adjustable legs every time. The 2 adjustable leg ones just arnt the same
  19. @gobbypunk likes unusual timbers, may to to far from him tho.
  20. We used to run a micro bull tracked mini loader, since we gave up domestic tree work 12 month ago it got sold but we still think we should of kept it. Any hydraulic help is good help
  21. Bet the bugger would fire up with some fresh diesel and a jump pack 🤔
  22. Could be a few things but my first call would be crap in the roller box stopping the top roller dropping and crushing the wood to get grip and/Or lack of grease to the sliders in the roller box
  23. He didn’t pull the wool over there eyes!
  24. @Steve BullmanThis post needs a spewing yellow man thingy to react with 🤮 just the thought is making my eyes bleed.
  25. Preparation for war with Russia- alarm for when the big red button gets pushed
