Yes Stubby ! I mean what the hell you know ! Anyway an Echo saw would be a good shot , harness n boots n saw trousers really down to personal choice fella. ( You will spend half yr money n stihl not like it ) K

Show a bit of respect please Khriss. Stubby knows lots about trees, he was about when they were first invented.

Shut up you fool - thats called irony and banter an Mr Stubby is wise enuff to know the difference , thank you , K

Most on here have a lot of respect for ex-forces lads, and they tend to make the move into this game easier than most.

Might be the beastings and the working in gash weather training!

Good advice on saws already, PPE and climbing kit definitely a ‘try before you buy’ situation if you can. We’re all different.

Or start with Husky bib and brace trousers and Stihl brown boots like I did, then every upgrade will be luxury!

 

Good luck with it, let us know how you go.

STFU .  You don't " chop " trees down with a saw anyway .  Thats done with an axe .  You are also disrespectful .  Being a gobby gardener cuts no ice with me . Incidentally he may already have a medal or 2 . I hate you .

Ah shut your trap, "you hate me"..  drama queen!!!...

 

And, I haven't got anything against anyone who's been in the forces. I'd happily sit down and listen to hrs of their adventures.

 

What annoys is introducing themselves as ex forces like it entitles em to some respect..   yea, well I'll respect someone when I feel they've earned it..   being in the forces might be nothing more than sweeping floors..

 

if they did something worth reporting on then I'll tip my hat..   

 

And I remember a thread sometime last year, a fella trained William or Harry as a pilot, I think it was that scotish lad who worked on oil rigs gave him a hard time(pretended to work on the oil rigs)..   I'm trying to think if Mr Bullman had somethin to say back then..
