Well I wouldn't be on my sofa with a cup of tea listening to Steve Wright that's for sure!
-
Some firewood there! All done by 2 pm.
-
Biggest lump getting airborne.
-
Getting it into lengths with the husky 288

And yet strangely my least favourite Darrin! Wind thrown ash that had taken out a roof of a house. The firemen had cut it away from the building after the storm. Had to used a timber lorry to lift it off a wall that they did not want to damage (plus it did make life easier)

I know, but at that price you can keep the smaller one and bring out the beast when needed.

USED Wood Chippers, JENSEN A240DI TURNTABLE - 10" - CATEGORY: WOOD CHIPPERS offered for sale £8250.00 This one comes from Germany (so probably less problems registering) looks like a beast. You should have that sitting in the shed for mass conifer destruction. Just a thought.

Asbestos roofs, greenhouse, fences, tight passages, just missing telephone lines to complete the perfect job. Sycamore is a nice rigging tree though. Good job.
-
I noticed that when I visited West Sussex (my old stomping ground) a month ago. I don't know where all they all find work. I'm not knocking them, decent vans and chippers and probably competent guys.
-
As for the op. Have you just qualified or finished some kind of tree biology thing. I ask because it may be that you are seeing these things with new eyes. It was perhaps ever thus and you just didn't notice. A bit like this scene from "They Live" [ame] [/ame] -
Buy the equipment and offer a grand for the goodwill.
-
I go shopping Saturday morning.
-
Compact Tractor what sort of work to look for
Mick Dempsey replied to mitchel's topic in Large equipment
Topping paddocks and/or a flail mower for small scrub, -
Ok thanks.
-
Rg 35 replaced my old 3 wheeled 25hp super junior recently. Well, a year ago now I think of it.
-
So do I, happy to get rid of it for nothing locally. Not worth the time/money to sell it.
-
Ah go on then... I love grinding pics!
-
Ian, I'm presuming the purpose of you spending a couple of days there was to drum up business. Was it worth it?
-
Belts, fuel filters, don't discount fuel starvation.
-
Anyway it won't affect the firewood value.
-
Agreed, never washed a rope.
-
You'll still have to take another trip to take the chipper to the job. A decent tipping trailer costs as much as a 3.5 tonne truck. This thread has got me thinking about a tipping trailer. Still be able to carry a tractor/grinder but can keep chipping when the transit is off tipping.
-
Sometimes on a job with trailer, tractor chipper et al and limited towing on certain vehicles, it can be the old Chicken, Fox, Bag of Grain conundrum.
-
Yeah, I should trade in my Ifor for a tipper trailer, yours looks handy. 18 months ago when I bought my new(er) tranny I took my old 98 one in for a CT just out of interest. Blow me down if it didn't pass! So that was the second tipper covered for a bit That runs out in December. We'll see then.

Its not about cheapness, it's about MAKING more money. Getting the job done quicker, more efficiently, getting it done in a day rather than two. On to the next one.
