Hey Forestboy, Do you work alone or in a team? What's your idea to take the oaks down? Free fall or rigged? What chipper are you using? What's the access/drag like? How long will it take you to finish the job? If I remember correctly, you only passed your 30,31,38,39 recently. Have you worked with other tree surgeons before? Or did you just spend 50k on courses and kit, then opened up a tree surgery business? -
2 x ten foot long, 3 feet wide. 3 inch slabs mainly. Includes fuel and oil. A ladder is the fastest setup I've seen. [emoji106]

£325 a day if you supply a labourer or £425 if I do. 880 with 4' mill and 661 with 3'. Normally a 9 hour day. Travel on top, and all running aspen and bio oil. [emoji106]
-
Yep, can't stand it. Rather use a 261 or 461.

Got a big sycamore milling job on Monday, If I can cut 4" for the client I'll post some pics. [emoji106]

Another quality video blaisey. [emoji106] Personally the wider the board the thicker the slab. Getting into milling 4" boards with wide butts. The cohesion of fibres is better, less distortion and so much less sawdust. [emoji106][emoji106][emoji106]

The 362 is a dog. The power of a 50cc with the weight of a 70cc. The 462 is way ahead. A spud ported 560 cuts about the same as a 461. But weighs lots less. [emoji106]

It's a state school, in Huddersfield. Looks like it's been managed, lack of deadwood etc. Informed the school today. Photos and email at reception.
-
Yeah, Might talk to the school later today. If they want I'll do it as a freebie. Thanks for the advice [emoji106]

My daughter has just started a new school with a small woodland. Couldn't help noticing this. I'm no tree surveyor, but I thought this might need sorting. Any advice?

Wanted. Monkey winch or sandwich powered winch wanted.

Yale do a cable puller identical to tirfor but half the price. I've got the 1.6 ton version and it's pretty tasty. Weighs quite a bit though, with steel cables and ropes etc. Gets heavier the further you have to walk it. The 3.2 ton version is about the weight of a small bungalow. If you get one, get the appropriate rated strops, shackles and rigging rope. [emoji106] -

Thanks mate, I'll be phoning em tomorrow. Anyone on here got a license to store up to 275 litres?
-
Not sure about this Wonky, Informed at work about 3 weeks ago, we could legally carry 330 litres of fuel in a vehicle. I presume this means you are allowed to store that amount?
-
How much for 200 litres delivered?
-
Ages. Never timed one. But two batteries should last all day. [emoji106]

Stihl msa200 with the ap300 batteries. Cuts smoothly and cleanly even with seasoned oak sleepers. [emoji106]

If they were paid properly to begin with maybe they wouldn't leave?

No issues. [emoji23][emoji23][emoji23][emoji106]
