Hi Chaps,

 

 

Somewhat of an imposter here Im afraid, not being arbor Yet...

 

Im 17 and have wanted to be a "Lumberjack" since about 5 Im going to to the Barony College in September to do an ND in Forestry, with either Forest Mechanism, or Arbor. As yet undicided, I wasnt built to monkey up trees . I dont have a "proper" saw at the moment but a nice little Stihl MS390 with a 18" bar, it serves me well enough - for now anyway mainly looking after our little patch of 18ac (Hazel). Im here to learn a little more about the Arbor side of things, I know a few guys in the trade but you cant get enough ideas!

 

 

Well I reckon thats enough from me, but thanks to Steve -for generally getting me on here, it took a while and im sure you will be regretting it soon enough

Welcome to the site mate. I've heard good thing about Barony collage. I started studying forestry at the Scottish School of Forestry and after about a month of sitting in a class room watching the arb guys go out and climb trees all day I switched courses.
