  1. If you offer to work for nothing for one day it shows you have the balls to show an employer that your not just looking to get paid.Some guys genuinly want to learn,thats the point some of u guys are missing.Lets be honest here a half decent employer would slip you a couple of quid at the end of the shift anyway,bt i dont think doin 1 day unpaid work to get future work js a bad thing
  2. I got my first job working in a garage by volunteering to do anything,1st week unpaid after that employer gave wot he thought id earned.Its not about being paid or unpaid its about showing an prospective employer that your willing to do wotever it takes to get the work.
  3. Doing a couple of days unpaid would be good
  4. How did we get from wot to look for in a groundie to arseholes and cream pie
  5. Radio does'nt play guitar music any more anyway!
  6. Avoid stihl harnesses theyre crap,cant comment on huskey ones but the oregons r really comfy and can be adjusted from small to xx fat,i mean xx large
  7. Cs 30 is a necessity,anything else is a bonus really.Remember a great work ethic will get an employer to invest in you by gettin you the relevant tickets and courses.Older guys seem to do better than young halfwits dickin about on there f@#n fones
  8. Now were talkin:thumbup:
  9. Imigrants,migration,refugees,pain,suffering,politics blah blah blah..why wont this thread die! Thought this was ARBtalk???
  10. Am i being as dumb as a bag of hammers,have i missed something here?If you can get access for a cherry picker why not use it,as long as you put boards down to save the lawn,why not???
  11. That my friend is a thing of beauty!
  12. Cheerz for the tip mate:thumbup1:
  13. I stand corrected sir-i doff my hat to you guvnor:thumbup:
  14. Totally agree with you on the stihl rollomatic guidebars,however the are on the heavy side and lifespan can be quite short depending on the type of work the saw is being exposed to regularly.Cheerz for your thoughts,i guess i ll give it some more thought.Tbf they dont seem to do a guidebar for the 201T anyway
  15. Hey mark if you dont mind me asking are they worth the price considering the bar has more longevity,also what saw do you run the bar on and is it felling/climbing etc. Cheerz
  16. Hey all,been hearing and seeing a lot of guys online and on you tube raving about sugihara guidebars,how light they are,more balanced,rails dont wear out etc.Is it all propaganda by people being sponsored by sugihara or is the product worth purchasing??? Anyone using them? How do the handle compared to standard stihl/oregon/husky bars. Cheerz
  17. Hornets and humans are fine and left alone they rarely bother anyone.However they wipe out bees and have been known to eradicate entire honey bee hives of thousands in hours.Considering the plight of our native bees,hornet nests have to be controlled.Im no expert but id imagine if you have a beekeeper within a mile radius he might not take to kindly to his livelyhood being wiped out in 1 day.A healthy balance has to be maintained in any ecosystem.Id recommend getting expert advice on controlling the hornet nest.
  18. Great vid,canada looks fantastic..dont think i could work there though,too many conifers and my knees couldnt take all that spiking.
  19. Hey timbercutterdartmoor,It takes a very brave person too write about such personal issues on a public thread.i have the greatest respect for you and its a very great and selfless thing you have done.No doubt it will help others recognise some of the symptoms in themselves.Keep positive m8 were all here for you if you need it.Im sorry i dont have the proper vocabulary to say what id like to say. All the very best to you,keep sharing with us
  20. Hey all,Im looking to get a decent winter work jacket,im lookin for mid range as im skint and cant afford cut and climb.I need it for climbing and ground work.I came across the strein kreiger work smok and wondered if anyone has one or knows someone with one.opinions would be much appreciated. Much obliged
  21. Learn from it and move on.Unfortunatly there are some unscrupulous people out there who will take you for a ride. Just my opinion
  22. Haha cheerz for the heads up steve but seriously-no chance! My boss doesnt even know these forums exist.He refers to us as his monkeys...
  23. Yip totally agree steve we only do it cause our boss is a total pr!@k and makes us,even though no one has ever had an accident with a saw up a tree,wish i could say the same for the mewp users though!
  24. 2 maples felled and a cedar topped and chogged, too damn hot today,my jacobs were in absolute tatters! Whoever invented cut proof trousers had an evil streak Roll on the cold dry days
