  1. imo the best thing to do is do the next course up etc and then that refresh's all your old courses,ive got 30 31 38 and 39 but when i do 41 it renews them all so if you space out your next courses you would be doing something different and keeping up to date etc

  8. not in your area but my local timber merchant offered to buy oak planks off me for £100 each so might be worth you seeing whos local to you,many thanks andy
  9. bigger jobs monday to thursday and some smaller easier jobs til lunchtime on friday,if they finish all the jobs on the day they finish early on friday,been doing this for years and 90% of the time my guys finish 12-2pm on friday which they really appreciate ,especially those with kids who want to do the school pick up every now and then,already mentioned in the thead but again hot drinks/ food in the winter and cold drinks/ice cream in the summer really helps the team

  18. thank you ,i'll definetly look into it as it looks like it would be better than regular fuel for both us and the environment
  19. have you had any trouble with your saws or do they run well with aspen? ive heard mixed reviews ,thanks
  20. tree work flat rate definetly (saved me 15k in four years)but for fencing normal vat as you can claim back the vat on all the materials so you would be better off that way
  21. hi mark i recently bought a microbull off dave alviti with the klou log grab, grapple bucket and towbar attachment and these have all had a good use ,its probably the narrowest out there and with tracks spreads the weight out more and is far more stable than the wheeled versions on skinny wheels,the service is always fantastic and they are open to suggestions and making stuff for you etc , it is also availble to hire from them and if you buy it they refund you the hire price , good luck with whatever machine you choose ,you wont regret it
  22. 881 all day , ive got both and the 881 is much better ,highly recommend
