I quit climbing at 40. Nearly 50 now and couldn’t imagine starting in this career at that age. Some do it though to be fair. theres far easier ways to make money at 50

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

10 year old tree on dwarf root stock blown over last night. Laden with apples. Best solution? (Other than cut it down)

Good Morning all, just joined today and would like some sound advice if anyone can help. Abit about myself, I am ex military and have been working overseas doing security for the last 20 years. Over the past year I have been considering hanging up my gun belt and looking at retraining myself for work back in U.K. only issue is I am 50 this year but still fit for my age. if anyone can help I’d like some advice on is it worth it retraining to become a arborist at my age or have I left it to late. any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

Happy Friday Arbtalkers 😉

Mornin’ all. Igor has taken to random sustained barking in the night (and day but that’s not an issue) so been up since 4.30 with him so at least the missus can sleep. Getting the new ranger sign written today. Then handing over the old one to the new owner, who happens to be my Brother-in-Law, which makes things easier. Lad will be splitting wood this morning.

I'm up as she is up! She only had a couple of hours then she has gym thing! Dedication! Some more job type jobs for me and I'll take her t'pub later! Tosser who shook hands on her Dad's car did a swerve which gets right up my nose, his number is blocked and it is advertised again..... Duly, Hand, Ruse.

I admire your faith in humanity Mark Bolam but in reality no we aren’t. A quite frankly unbelievable level of hypocrisy from the very two people who showed their true colours when the news broke of the death of a man whom they disagreed with politically. Or in one liars case a man he claimed to have not heard of until an “hour before” yet still managed to come to the judgement he posted below. Mark J’s words. He was a prick, stirred up a load of trouble and paid for it. You reap what you sow. Karma always collects. That post was liked instantly by the utter hypocrite Steven P.

always found in construction with disk cutters it was a lack of basic maintenance because of all the dust they produce

I had one on trial about 1.5-2 years ago. At the time it was called the akimbo max. I got one to trial as I had go funded the original akimbo design and Jaime had one floating around Europe so it was sent to me. it didn’t operate well in damp Norwegian conditions. I gave my feedback and passed on to the next trial candidate. it will be interesting to see if it is better than the first version.

You could get a job for eggs, selling cars, or caravan holidays.

Horrible isn’t it. Nearly didn’t post it but if we (the royal we) are going to have big opinions on things, we should have to really confront the ugly side of them. We should stare it in the face, raw, and then decide whether we still think the same thing as much as we thought we thought it.

We need to tone down the hatred on this thread. We are Arbtalk. We’re better than that.

That DSG gearbox is the dogs dangle things and at 140bhb, it gets on the way!

Great cars!
