What next??

[pos1981]

Hi all,

 

I have posted a few times on here but read more than post.

 

What i want to know what should i buy next. I am keen to start in this industry im getting on a bit in terms of starting in the arb sector but im determined to get there.

 

I work full-time and at the moment this is proving a bit difficult to get the experince i want and need.

 

Ive been out a couple of times and hope there will be more with tom2020(thanks tom)

 

Ive bought my essential ppe equipment, but wondered what i should buy next?? Its doesn't neccesarily have to be equipment but it could be books knots guides etc. Im looking for info that will help me get a kick start into the industry.

 

Ive also got my cs30+31 booked.#

 

Thanks for reading and thanks for the help,

Great start thanks for that guys.

 

Ive actually got three saw's now and i think only one of them will be any good in the real arb world!

Best way to use the knot guide is to sit down with a bit of rope & tie the knots,helps learn them faster,& they stick in your head that way.

Buy yourself a 38 course and assessment, it'll give you a better chance of getting out and experienced with other lads. A saw probably won't come in handy if you're looking to get into full time arb employment, neither will climbing gear. If you manage to get a good job, it should be provided. Good luck.

Pos , I'm curious to know what you mean by ' getting on a bit to start in the arb sector ' ? Is it really getting too late ?

He needs to be able to handle a saw and know how to look after one, the only way to do that is to have one on hand to get used to, telling him a saw wont come in handy IMO is not true.
