    If i was going to be money or be horrid , dont u think id have commented on your post about Chinese skidsteers ?

    Its how I phrase things that's it, so rather than jumping in and trying to be the main man ..why dont you stop , think about what you want to say before u write it . First place id turn to is Google, but bearing in mind Hunstanton is in the arse end of no where everyone will have to import it there. And if quantities were put up it might be cheaper to go further away

    Genuine question, are tree surgeons likely to sell playground bark ? Why dont u butt out ? If I had reply then I could have said try this person . That's all

    Absolutely jealous of you having a permanent rink ,just saying to my other half about going to a proper ice rink and how it seems to be a thing of the 80s and early 90s. If not I will have to go to Denmark as they have a decent rink in the square every Xmas
  9. Tree monkey 1682
    Can't beat a bit of skating if you can find a rink,if not you'll have to use roller blades !

    He's ex military, i thought he was maybe I'm wrong . Doesn't he have the flag hanging up?

    I do ,if it was a good idea it wouldn't have been broken or placed in a position where it could of been damaged, But that change of A bar was a major thing , where the hse said u have to have the infeed chute further down and further away from the rollers makes it a pain , Should of kept the a bar as I cant see how long the wiring would last in some of these coastal locations . U cant mitigate idiots and badly maintained machinery.

    Was a qualified member of staff, I know the company but will not say it on here. But the is only so much u can do then the is just stupidity and bang more legeslation and hse, we never take into account home owners, builders, farmers that have accidents, it all gets lumped together..
  14. Tree monkey 1682
    I was saying it was when machines went from having the standard A bar over the infeed chute , to then having chutes a certain distance /height away from rollers , then the bottom stop bar that was over sensitive ..then the paddle switches and emergency stop buttons . I mean how many safety devices does one need for one fecking machine. You can never risk asses idiots
  15. Tree monkey 1682
    It was a stupid contractor (a bloke with long hair not scraped up) that caused the first change .I'm not complacent with chippers or chainsaws but I respect them and take precautions.the company that had the accident were known to cut corners ..enough said
  16. Tree monkey 1682
    Yes i do , its obvious its going to break off, chippers were perfectly safe before having stupid switches on them, when you had the a bar on the chipper that did stop,forward and reverse ... the stupid story was a bloke had long hair and got scalped by the chipper. Chippers aren't dangerous the same way chainsaws aren't, its the people who use them

    Welcome to hire companies, its not the case of you've been done over ,its business, you broke it you pay for it...its probably that genuine parts have to be fitted in accordance with the hse policy and insurance. Have to take care of someone else's machine next time .shit happens
  18. Tree monkey 1682
    I guess u mean that stupid plastic stop switch
  19. Tree monkey 1682
    No i didnt notice that , but Hazel is one of the most easiest things to proper gate ,try not to mow around it then! What about a cutting ?
  20. Tree monkey 1682
    Why dont you layer the original cobnut ,then when its rooted take it off that? You should have more chance and the parent plant aswell rather than a sucker that might not produce ?
  21. Tree monkey 1682
    No problem, he had alot of ex forces people on the course last time ,some went into estate works etc But he's worth the call
  22. Tree monkey 1682
    Talk to lee at lbs training Wellington, he will give you an un biased answer as to if your past it , he is also ex sas too -you might consider forestry instead . Depends how much your body's fked Some people change career at 40 and dunno if that's not ideal.
  23. Tree monkey 1682
    See how loose it is and then attempt to stake after straightening it up ,if it won't lift up again then support it with the lean with a natural crutch
  24. Tree monkey 1682

  25. Tree monkey 1682
