How often do you use a mewp?

To be honest at a previous firm it was usually if it couldn't be climbed for obvious reasons such as moving on the root plate for example. The firm I work for now has their own tracked platform so it does get taken out on occasions when you wouldn't have thought about hiring one. For example working some large London planes recently we used the mewp to get me in to the bole of the tree and back up after lunch!

I think about buying one quite often, at my age I can't afford to be macho about stuff!

 

So I sit down and work out the jobs where it would have saved time and made me money.

 

They are few and far between, my work is mostly takedowns so stuff hitting the deck quick enough is rarely the issue, processing it and moving it is the key to doing it quicker.
