  1. No not really. He was abit more of a hindrance than anything. Would of been better with one of my guys helping but contract lift they insisted on him being with me. It's gone to a local company who make high end outdoor furniture it'll be well utilised.
  2. No idea. Apparently it went down hill pretty quick. Within 12months. No signs of anything obvious.
  3. Lovely sequoia take down from this week. All went well, apart from the slinger from the crane company. He came up in the basket to help as they insisted on massive chains. Scared of heights and only been in the job 3 weeks 🤦‍♂️ 4t biggest lift.
  4. Just taken delivery of this setup. Any advice to get the best out of it. Revs, 1speed 2speed? Etc... Cheers.
  5. People worry to much. Its fine....
  6. I think it was around 3years ago we had a fly over at the local street market. Amongst our group of friends was a war veteran who had unfortunately lost his eye sight. More unfortunately he's since died but anyhow... His reaction as he heard the noise, brought a group of fully grown men to tears. It's a memory that will stay with me forever.
  7. I definitely agree with this. I've been subbed in as a climber to get firms through an AA Aproval. Paid handsomely for it mind 😉
  8. Not mine but a friends. Gave him a hand with some winching the other day. He has a vast collection of tractors. All of them are immaculate but still get used as and when.
  9. We are just about to start a clearance job in Saltford, Keynsham. Some lovely processor size firewood, mixture of ash, beech, cherry, chestnut etc. Due to access (low bridge) it would suit someone local with tractor and forwarding trailer. Open to offers. There will be approx 40ton We will also have similar quantity of poplar which would go for chip wood. Please dm for more info. Many thanks. T
  10. I've used both as a Subbie with other companies. The more recent Doosan engine is noticeably more powerful and is a beast but I still can't help always spot the the classic forst poor build issues.
  11. I should post more often. Seeing those pics of the Avant reminded me to share these from the last couple days. received_414845107035942.mp4
  12. Go out further and take smaller bits. Put a felling cut in as appose to step cut. Make sure you cut the side of the hinge aswell before back cut. Use a bigger saw with smaller bar for faster chain speed.
  13. I bumped into a guy I used to drink with a week or so ago. Guess who climbs trees for a living and guess who invested in crypto.
