yep same do it yourself, just plan it well so you don't work every weekend. Personally I want to switch from, trees to stumps only as a retirement plan

Working away accommodation
Chipperclown replied to Logrover's topic in Forestry and Woodland management
To be honest when I work out of area (not often) I add the cost of all to the quote and make sure I eat like a king if I win the job! -
Ok Steve thanks its working now!
-
Judt trend again also increasing the distance, nothing
-
Thanks guys, well I am putting in the post code, pressing the search button, but nothing happens? Pretty sure I am not seeing drop down powered by Google box under the postcode?

Hi, Anyone no of any tips sites in the Waltham cross (EN87RD) area. I have looked on the waste site on here but can't seem to make it work! Thanks
-
Ok thanks I will do that once I have found 1!
-
Does anyone run of these machines currently, if so what are your thoughts?
-
I have noticed lots of dying Euc's in my area also. I will say though that they all had recently been reduced (too much) in my opinion. Not bitter or anything! Also I always had the view that whatever the reduction they come back, not so sure now.

Owner uncontactable or not responding
Chipperclown replied to Alex Seaview's topic in Trees and the Law
Why are you doing the leg work here, I am sure you are busy with your day job. Surely if you customer wants this work done they should be dealing with it? My experience has taught me not to go down this route. If the customer is really wanting the works they will gather the info (for you to confirm) in the end. Anyway I wish you luck with it. -
I think the issue is in this industry that employer and employees seem to be more like friends (not like in other jobs in my experience) other than the traditional approach to the work place.. This leads to some of the issues highlighted if not managed well (blurred lines).

Spend your time in more important areas of your business I would say, gotta be bigger issues to solve? If not congrats, you have made it!

Whats causing these issues on this Sweet Chestnut?
Chipperclown replied to Chipperclown's topic in General chat
Thanks will do some reading around this. -
Should the tree be removed??
-
Basically get in contact with various companies and see how it goes, learn and don't over plan. Basically if it's just weekend work for now then its zero risk on your part.
-
I do the same as suggested, I am just. trying to find an easy solution pretty sure the bale grab would be it but wanted to check.
-
I am definitely looking another option other than the forks! Expensive attachment but if it speeds things up and means I can move the bags on my own without constantly jumping on and off the loader I think it may be worth it? Would be interested if anyone is actually doing so currently.
-
I mean this. Just for home/smallholding use, not worried about damage to the bags as future bags will be of average quality.
-
Hi, Does anyone use a bale grab on a mini loader for 1 ton log bags? If so any good? Getting fed up with folks and collapsing handles.
-
Yep not cheap!
-
Pretty simple, what authority do you have as a company/individual/sole trader and so on to cone off the road and start controlling the traffic flow? None I would suggest without the correct training, signage, traffic control equipment and council issued permits etc. Perhaps if you presented a professional approach and detailed costings to the works within your tender this could stand you more chance of winning it? Its not always a race to the bottom. I work on around £1000 inclusive of permits and traffic control measures in the Hertfordshire area. Ps don't pay for a visit any good company can do all required online. Good luck with it anyway.
-
Bad Idea given your age. You have commitments which you need to pay for. No way you will do this on a newbie salary. Also what happens when you get injured, who pays the bills then? I would keep your job and dip your toe in (with the help of other companies).

Question please. Can I have milled a large oak truck milled into slabs or small chunks and have this kiln dried for quick use straight away. I have always air dried before for home projects thinking this can not be done, however I am seeing otherwise online?
-
Something is quite fishy about this thread.

Special Branch will sort this surely? Ps Sorry
