How do you deal with the regrowth in a few years time? Is it a case of re laying the hedge? Thanks.

Rates for Self Employed Handcutters
departed replied to MattyBuist's topic in Forestry and Woodland management
How do you get into operating harvesters? I'm sure it's a pretty demanding job with few 'apprenticeship' jobs going. Is it good money compared to say excavator driving? Cheers. -
That would be ideal for rhodi bashing around here!
-
All good fun eh chaps!! Unbelievable how quickly things can happen, so much pressure even in the small branches.
-
Yep [emoji106] Can't remember what tree it was but it broke my nose [emoji38]
-
Ok. Cheers [emoji1303]

Would you guys still buy the echo over the 150? Considering that the echo is the same price, if not dearer, than the 150.

HAIX® Protector Light – Your Perfect Summer Boot
departed replied to Steve Bullman's topic in Climbers talk
I'm on my second pair of trekker mountain boots. Really good boots but pretty heavy. -
Ahem...a splash of diesel near the nozzle when blowing into a bonfire is quite explosive! Not that I've tried it of course!
-
Really nice work that mate.

Search function isn't working on the iPhone app. Doesn't matter what I type in the search bar, all I get is 'no topics' Not sure how long it's been like this.
-
Brilliant! Thanks [emoji1303]
-
Wow, that was quick! Did you use any special tools and do you have much experience in saw mechanics?
-
I fancy doing this with the 660 clone so I'm looking forward to seeing this saw being built. Thanks for starting the thread [emoji1303]

EE do a signal booster that goes off your wifi, only available to business users that work from home. At least they did a few years ago when I was self employed. Might be worth a call? Alternatively, if you've got an iPhone (5 onwards I think) you can use wifi calling. Not sure if android has something similar.

Thanks, there's always YouTube I guess.
-
Thanks for the link to the website. Interesting and very tempting! I'm looking to start chainsaw milling so I'm considering the 660 kit, £160 posted. Like mechano for big kids! Do you know if the kits come with instructions? Cheers.

Near the national park office, in penrhyndeudreath.

No. I live in Snowdonia, North Wales.

That's a shame, for me! Best of luck finding someone decent mate.

I hear you, and it's a constant battle between us and the boss. I'm not the only one on this low wage in this company. I'm getting a chunk of money behind me and I'll start up on my own. Some subbying and some of my own jobs. Relocating isn't an option for me and my family. But there's definitely a lot of work available to those that are willing/able to travel for the right job. Anyway, sorry for the detail OP!

Anywhere near me? I'm in Snowdonia.

Before tax. Two kids. Mortgage of about £500 a month. Be as nosy as you like pal! It's a struggle but I love the job , and where we live, and honestly don't think I could do anything else. There aren't many people hiring up here and my employer knows this. Almost has an attitude of 'where else are you going to go?'

Are they rated for bee stings? Quite an experience that TGB! To be fair, the pfanners are comfy but I just get very sweaty when climbing and the gloves then slip around on my hands. These mechanix gloves are great so far but I've only worn them a couple of days so far.

Did you go back?! It's frustrating because I've done this (Foresty, fencing and arb) since college which is about 13 years now. I've got windblow, large trees, chipper, climbing up to cs40 and obviously plenty of experience but I'm still only getting £8.50 an hour! I'd love to move on but with kids and a mortgage I'll need another job to go to before leaving this one.
