Never walk under a hung up tree or walk in front of the tree when the fellers doin the back cut. 

These are the only instances where ive heard people fail a felling course.

Learn 5 steps to risk assesment aswell.

As stubby says relax enjoy it and hope the tutors not an arsehole...

Assesors are usually great but you do get the odd tutor who's a total bellend

Good luck mate

If you're using a saw at the moment concentrate on using the chainbrake before you move and keep the saw out of your bodyline. Don't forget to put down the visor & muffs.

Enjoy it and it'll be fine, they all do want you to pass.

thanks, fortunately i only did my cs 30 in about october or so so i'm still fairly fresh from it and i tend to like keeping in good habits anyway so i'm pretty diligent
but yeah i am on the saw regularly so i obviously don't always run by the book but i'll keep it in mind

that's some great pointers thanks pal, i'll keep them in mind and have a read up on the 5 steps to a risk assesment, on farms which is where i'm currently working we did all the risk assesments 20 years ago and then hid them away on that shelf over there and forgot all about how to do  them! 

going to have to get my self back into the routine of them if i'm to have any chance in the tree game!
