  1. Past hour
  2. I think it will just over complicate things inmensely. A good trick to have in the bag when needed but not necessarily one to be used daily. About 16 years ago I was working for a firm and me and the other climber reduced a massive London Plane tree over about 8 gardens. Nearly every piece had to be rigged so we took a lowering device up the tree and set it up and just moved the rigging pulley around sections of the tree. After about 3 or 4 attempts we decided it was a waste of time having it in the tree. It also wasted the time of the climber using the device when they could had been else where cutting. Lastly, it was no benefit to the groundsman. Granted that scenario was for the tip reduction of a large spreading canopy and not in a stem. I honestly just see it as extra hassle Alex. Nothing to do with it jarring with what we have been told. Having the move pulleys down a stem when negative rigging can be a bit tricky the larger you get. Then you are introducing the need to reattach the lowering Device for each cut. Or you could just position the lowering device in a place that only needs to be moved once? Such as the bottom, I.e when you’re finished. Oh, hang on, isn’t that how we have been doing it for years: ?

  4. Yeah, I have ultrasonic cleaned the carb, fitted a couple of diaphragm's, fuel feed and return pipes, tank filter etc, I love all this kind of stuff.. I'm starting to think down the lines of, its the mag that's breaking down!! I am looking at the Stihl range.. Dyslexia is an amazing gift in many ways, for me I have to reread everything I write, and it still comes out jumbled up!
  5. Morning all, Sectioning down the remains of a large conifer then sorting a three stemmed cherry where one large stem is hung up in a large conifer. Got to try and minimise damage to conifer as in conservation area, and quite a nice conifer anyway. Have a good week
  6. Yesterday
  7. searched for a bit, couldn't find any good examples, but did find this.
  8. 5G does not get through trees very well, or the coming 6G is even worse at this, so the BS about the trees roots damaging pavements in places like Sheffield etc is just that. On the one hand they love trees and on the other they hate them for preventing us from being exposed to their shit... imo only obviously.
  9. Edited to aggrieve less.
  10. So can you try and articulate what you are after in regards your random NI question. The economy The weather The price of housing The far more sensible firearm laws The different customs arrangements and or the pros and cons of the Good Friday Agreement The current political situation The role of the armed forces during the period known as the troubles etc etc etc oddball 🤣🤣 patience lad

  15. if anyone can help, im moving from the uk to perth an looking for job oppertunities does anyone have any suggestions for compamys in that area
  16. 3.5 tonnes... suspect this is total weight too, probably what they can recover. A tipper with 5 tonnes of chip in the back will need commercial recovery. Though "if the tipper is used for business purposes", as opposed to all of us who have a tipper for domestic reasons? might be able to argue that since all tippers are for business use this clause contradicts the earlier ones which the headline says they do cover? (Edit before anyone gets arsy, hands up anyone who uses a tipper solely for personal use and never as a business vehicle?)
  17. Consider heading to Sweden or Norway,the season is starting in a couple of months time. Stockholm would probably be the easiest place to get a start.

  20. good thing johnny never made sausage skins,,,
  21. Only use a PAYE one these days. Voice activated.
  22. I use the rhino for my srt endeavours, I find it tight to get it all on, it also seems tight sliding the swen eyes over but once all on it works well, i think I may have used a mighty O previously. Since I have been wedded to the rhino I am not aloud to look at any other options.
  23. Unlike the DPF where if you don't take the guts out of it it will still clog up even if you deleat the regen prog .
  24. This is what I have been up to for the last few months. American Shaker oval boxes made from cherry.
  25. Nice idea about the spreaders, presumably something along the lines of the Irwin Quick Clamp/Spreaders would do a similar job. Certainly make life easier for puncture repairs.
  26. AHPP

    ArbDogs? Pics!

    A good job well done.
  27. Thanks @Mick Jones yes well it seems that it is not out of the realms of possibilities that the push rods can bend with out something being terminally wrong. Well it was my wife who was tractoring prior to it breaking god knows what she was about, well mucking out without the rear weigh on- makes it a hard job with out the weight as there is already too much weight on the front end.
