    Nearly every job I do now involves sleepers / artificial grass & kandala Grey Indian sandstone it’s a new thing and job after job it’s the same thing Jack

    Its long gone now the hardest part was it was more a case of guilty until proven innocent instead of the other way around me and Lowesstoft had to do a 100 different things eventually he got his money back but what a bad experience it was and thanks spud Jack

    That was the saw it had hardly been used it was mint condition original bar and chain from new you’d be lucky if it had 2 full tanks of fuel through it was a good saw but a big num heavy thing that I didn’t need anymore so Lowesstoft bought it but never received @spudulike Jack

    Me and @Lowestoft Firewood used ups and the chainsaw vanished a few months later the exact saw with matching serial numbers was sold on ebay so I’d highly recommended avoiding ups at all costs Jack

    Can’t say I ever seen one on my old 150 but In all fairness I can’t say I looked but them little die grinders get anywhere and if you can’t change the numbers grind them back to bare metal and if there’s no numbers there’s no proof is there I’ve had mountain bikes stolen I’ve identified the bikes gave the police the information but because the serial numbers weren’t there because they’d been removed they couldn’t / wouldn’t do anything the police are useless Jack

    Has no one heard of ringing up? Timberwolf have a ID tag and one serial number etched into the chassis leg the tags are taken off the 5 first digits on the id are all the same then the rest of the numbers can rather be made up or copied off another machine off the likes of Google images or the same machine for sale on the internet the etching is ground back to bare metal and painted back to the colour then you can buy the machines to do the etching off eBay for maybe £1000-£1500 sounds expensive but if you pay £300 to get a £25,000 + chipper for maybe £1500-£2500 and if you get pulled it’s rather the real McCoy or it doesn’t exist but it still isn’t stolen so they have to return it back to you then for the id plate you copy the first 5 digits are always SBXTW and then you buy a cheap stamp set off eBay and match the codes up and rivet it back on this is how easy the tags are to copy Jack

    @Joe d I spoke to joe in November 2019 and he was willing to give me work once I got my tickets but I got onto machines instead so just thought I’d put his name to you and hopefully it’ll be some help Jack

    Landscaping is good money saying that even that is going to shit now the price of materials is crippling the industry same as lack of them aswell Jack
  13. Jwoodgardenmaintenance
    I’ve just been watching one then it does look awkward but I’d rather spend £6k and be no good than spend £13,000 and come to the same conclusion I’ll order this and if any good comes of it I’ll eventually look into the wp36 because that’s the one this start up is just a learning curve Jack
  14. Jwoodgardenmaintenance
    That’s far too much just for a idea but for you as a established contractor it’s worth every penny I’ve found a dominator v12 in going to ring today and see when there due back in and order one of all goes well and the idea works out I’ll look into a better one but for starting up this one will do cheers for your help Jack
  15. Jwoodgardenmaintenance
    Thanks for the info it’s appreciated I’ve just been looking through a old thread and seen woodworks has a wp36 like you said are the best what’s the difference in price between the wp36 & the Japa rough cost is ideal and are 2nd hand processors common or are they like rocking horse teeth see plenty of PTO ones but it needs to be self powered Jack
  16. Jwoodgardenmaintenance
    It’s just a daft idea I’ve had but want to have a go and see if I can make it work just as a sideline to my landscaping & groundwork’s I’ve also just bought a Timberwolf tw230 for man with chipper hire just trying different things that do this works out great if not I’m thinking about buying a mini skip lorry and going down that route I just want to expand and make more money what sort of day rate would you expect with a little processor like the Japa? Jack
  17. Jwoodgardenmaintenance
    Hi all I have been looking at road towable firewood processors and looked into the Japa 305BE but don’t really want to pay £13,500 for a daft idea what might turn into a waste of time so is there any other machines something similar to this one and also if i was to buy one and hired it out with operator what sort of pricing should I be looking at and also don you charge by the hour / cord / day ect? Thanks Jack

    @Tomthetree
  19. Jwoodgardenmaintenance

  20. Jwoodgardenmaintenance
    Sold 😃
  21. Jwoodgardenmaintenance
    Wasn’t the cleanest
  22. Jwoodgardenmaintenance
    I’ve just sold a 572xpg for £500 but that was battered tbh I thought this saw would make good money
  23. Jwoodgardenmaintenance
    At present it’s supposed to be sold for £900 just waiting for payment and courier arranged so see what happens got another 2 people offering £700 & £815 not short on interest
  24. Jwoodgardenmaintenance
    It’s a 2016 with a 28” bar and chain it is like brand new it’s a brilliant saw plenty of power but I’ll never use it again so time to find a new owner
  25. Jwoodgardenmaintenance
    In all fairness most of my work is fencing and landscaping I only do the odd tree job most jobs I use my 261 with a 18” bar and that does it this was a one off job
