    Anyone interested in removing this oak? Nope!
  2. Chipperclown
    I love this thread!!

    From a business point of view and given that you are an established business I would think networking & subbing in various contractors with relevant kit and experience in its use would make more sense both money wise and whilst working to get the job done? Don't get me wrong great if you are able to have all but huge outgoings per month/year & at the point of purchase.

    Yeh Stubs! You have left an additional space after your first full stop and also one after the word Jesus! Not to mention the extra space after your !, just saying (add smiley face if I could workout how to do so!)
  5. Chipperclown
    Yep I like that!!
  6. Chipperclown
    Exactly, not great when you have to slacken off a back leaner to readjust! Not the way forward hence its my next purchase (Avant or bespoke)

    Thanks Mick, Yep its for that but I have found a few times now that because of the way the loader moves in reverse if you get out of shape you can end up with a problem on your hands. I like the thought of just sitting still and letting the winch do the work. Yep seen them too and thought the same really. Worst case I will buy an Avant one but I know already that I would like a more powerful winch.
  8. Chipperclown
    Does anyone use a winch on an Avant loader. I have looked the Avant winch which is a 1 ton winch and was wondering firstly if anyone has one and is fo what are your thoughts on it? Also wondering if I could maybe get a bespoke winch with a greater tonnage rating and is anyone has already done this? Ta

    Sometimes you can smell them if there's enough, very strong pong. I have only twice that I can remember seen any in trees I/we were working on. Both times the jobs were cancelled. Frustrating for all involved.
  10. Chipperclown
    I get quite often comments on Facebook like " I hope there were no birds in the tree etc". I like to respond with absolutely not, we shot them all before we began the tree works!". Makes me smile anyway!
  11. Chipperclown
    Yep tell that to Batman!
  12. Chipperclown
    Nah sorry, I hear your point, but I know of and have experienced so many issues that I would not be convinced that I could in my time remaining in the industry I could ever trust a Forst chipper to work without regular issues. When they are performing they are great but if you can't trust a machine 95% of the time then what's the point of owning/using one? I am not a trying to be a hater, just want to go to work knowing I can trust the kit I have.

    Timberwolf's doesn't!

  15. Chipperclown
    Can I do this after the Dillian Whyte rematch tomorrow night as I am too nervous to think about anything else until then! If you don't know what I am talking about google round 5 Whyte vs Povetkin. Anyway hijack over and good night all.
  16. Chipperclown
    Good idea thanks I may do that!
  17. Chipperclown
    I wish I understood Ad words or the explanation when someone try's to tell me but I don't!!
  18. Chipperclown
    Yep always has been waves for me since 2013.
  19. Chipperclown
    Problem solved as just had the quote rejected, happy days!! Thanks all.
  20. Chipperclown
    Yep I kind agree with u Mick to be honest. More than happy to walk away, slightly less happy to do the work. My plan is/has been to put in a high quote, make it worth my while and then, as now advised try a land search as I didn't know about this and see what the outcome may be.
  21. Chipperclown
    I have just done a quote on a tree in no mans land! Council won't take responsibly and say it's the Waterboards tree and the same the other way round. The potenial customer wants the tree to be pollarded. I am not particularly fussed if I do the work or not to be honest, however I would appreciate and advice please as this is a first for me.
  22. Chipperclown
    so a tw125 is a good first chipper 100% Yes
  23. Chipperclown
    Ha Ha Yes I am!! I think starting out a 125/160 is perfect. I at times may do some small one man type jobs and would be in trouble if I got a bigger chipper like a 230 stuck somewhere. Even a 125 is an issue at times.
  24. Chipperclown
    You can't raise with a Forst ST-Anything unless its working correctly which I doubt very much!!
  25. Chipperclown
    or 280!
