  1. Pictures of what is now left and the access. I set up to mill it but stopped because having milled the rest I don't now have storage space for this. Plus the fact that it is too heavy for my to get out without cutting smaller which I would like to avoid if somebody is interested.
  2. Update on this: I've milled what I can but there is a section 2.5m long left. It's 1m wide at bottom and 1.2m wide at the top but that includes a split. I will need it collected by end of next week (30th). Message me if you are interested.
  3. If you are interested I can send more pictures. Diameter at base a touch over a meter. Stem splits at 2.4m. If I don’t have a response today I’ll have a go at it myself. You can reach in from the road with a hiab or roll it with mechanical assistance down ramps onto trailer. The tree is above the road. Feel free to text me on 07432290359
  4. I can't do Monday but could do Tuesday morning if you don't find somebody else. 07432290359. I have a predator 460. Best regards, Thomas
  5. Groundy or Climber and kit available North Wales/Shropshire. I'm based outside of Oswestry. CS30,31,38,39 and first aid at work. 3 years experience in full range of tree work and horticultural industry before that. I'm available freelance with ppe or can contract with van/4x4, comprehensive rigging kit, saws, 6' Jensen chipper and Predator 460 grinder. I'm looking to work with somebody who cares about the customer and doing good tree work safely. I'm punctual, diligent and thoughtful. References available. Message if you are interested in more info. Thomas 07432290359 [email protected]
  6. I'm running my own small company but could use the odd freelance day(s). CS30,31,38,39. B+E, and first aid. Can come just with PPE climbing kit and basic saws or with tipper, chipper (Jensen a530), good rigging kit, stump grinder (Predator 460). Happy to climb or work on ground as a groundie able to think. Am also able to sub out as a 2 or 3 man team. General mindset is that of a hard worker (farm background) but much rather do a nice job slowly and safely than rush to bring in big bucks and leave a trail of devastation! Give me a call or message if interested. Can give plenty of good references. Based in Chirk, just north of Oswestry. Cheers! Thomas 07432290359
  7. Cheers Sarron! Let me know if you ever want to move up to sunny Wales. I can send work your way. Or, tallest tree in Wales is 30mins drive from me if you fancied a good rec climb! Hope you're well.
  8. I'm looking for a freelance climber able to carry out high quality work. Must be professional, experienced, capable and communicative.

Please call or email for a chat and to let me know your rates etc. Thanks in advance. Thomas 07432290359 [email protected]

  11. I'm in need of a groundy for odd days in Woking, Surrey. My work is a combination of tree work and tree planting so especially interested in hearing from you if both of those appeal... Small team, usually only two of us but up to 4 on larger jobs. Requirements: diligence in work, punctuality in arrival. Give me a call if you are interested. 07432290359 Thomas
  12. I know this was a while ago but I have the same problem and would be really interested to know if you needed to put a new stress box on or if it was something else. TIA Thomas
  13. I'm looking for something along lines of predator 450/460 or FSI B22 but second hand. Ideally 20hp ish, self driven and turntable. Let me know if you have something for sale! Cheers in advance Thomas 07432290359
  14. Just dragging and feeding a chipper. Not long drag. Give me a call if interested. £100 for the day. 07432290359
  15. I'm planning on relocating my business from Surrey up to Shropshire. I've previously used yard space on my parent's farm. Does anybody have any tips/help/advice about finding yard space up in Shropshire? In the ideal world I would have secure storage for chipper and tools, a place to have a little fire, and somewhere to do logs. If farmers are the best bet how do you get hold of them? Just turn up and knock on the door?? Cheers in advance.
  16. I'm in need of a couple more contacts for climbers or cs38 groundies in the area of Woking, Surrey. I run a small company there but am occasionally drawing a blank on my list of climbers that I know. Please feel free to pop me over an email or text if you happen to cover the Woking area and I'll be happy to chat more. Must have all relevant tickets, own saw and PPE and preferably own transport though could be happy to collect from West Byfleet station. Thanks for your help. Thomas [email protected] 07432290359
  17. Please let me know if you can be available. It's a pretty good day taking down an Ash tree. No drag at all (can park underneath tree). give me a call or text 07432290359 or email [email protected] Thanks guys!
  18. Hi all, I'm mainly a subby climber myself but have started taking on my own work and consequently am looking for somebody to work with me. Ideally I'd like a climber but I'm flexible. I'm based near Woking and will be happy to collect somebody from West Byfleet station if you don't have your own transport. Climber needs to have CS30,31,38,39. Groundie needs CS30,31,38. Way more important to me than how fast you climb or how cool you think you are is wether you are reliable (I have no time for people who don't turn up and then don't answer their phones), hardworking, polite, punctual, and care more about doing the job well and safely than quickly. I'd like to find somebody who I can work with regularly which is likely to start off as about a day a week and likely become two days a week fairly quickly. Contact me on 07432290359 (text is best unless it's an evening) or email [email protected] Cheers!
  19. Please contact me if you are the above, self employed, and interested in 3 days work near Hitchin. Thanks, Thomas 07432290359 [email protected]
  20. Just paid £7.00 for mine on Ebay and didn't need any paperwork.
  21. Thanks guys, really helpful yet again. I went and looked at it today and found that contrary to what he had told me it had no stress control (Vermeer tell me the earlier ones weren't fitted with it) and no safety bar. It wasn't in great condition either so I left it. The search goes on...!
  22. Cheers guys, very helpful. Am I right in assuming that the 24hp diesel fitted isn't an original engine? Weren't these originally fitted with petrols? Does anybody have recommendations of where I should go for parts? Thanks again!
