If you haven't used a trailer for 18 months don't just check the lights and go.............................

check that all the wheels are going round :blushing: If you have 200+ horse and a heavy right foot and do 30 miles you may end up with a tyre like this :scared1:

Got your cambium saver stuck to lazy to climb up and get it? Well if your nifty with a trow bag try to throw it to a fork directly above your friction saver, lower it down exactly! the same path as your climbing rope attach a karabiner to your your line and then climbing line, pull it back up to easily rescue your your false crotch then lower it nicely to the ground and impress all those you work with.

Another way to store your saw files is to force them into the channels of a piece of corrugated cardboard from the edge. Cut the piece so it is just a tad longer than the file and it'll keep edges from hitting other tools in your toolbox.

 

A nice way to set a line in the top of a tree you'll be pruning is to take a hunting bow, a spinfishing reel placed on a short tool handle, and an arrow with a hole burnt through the nock and a machine screw and stack of washers in place of the point. With a stout monofilament line and good aim you can place the arrow directly through a proper TIP (tie-in-point), then pull up your throwing line and then use that to place your climbing line.
