Only when I can reach the branches without having to jump:thumbup1:

 

Well sometimes, somedays I feel a bit more fragile than others for some reason.

Haha- yeah- the customer I had a year ago. Could i do some work on a mac that he planted and was now too old to get up and prune.....so there i am with my climbing kit etc up this tree- not very big- and using the silky, when this voice next to me starts on about the saw. I look round and its this old guy, up the tree in his black shoes,you know, the ones with smooth leather soles, holding a bow saw asking me to leave pegs so he can hang his bow saw up there........I kinda had a brief rethink of my purpose there:lol:

I have a long and shorter rope depending on tree hight . I climb on a purssic and have 2 crabs one on the prussic and the other on the eye. this way I cannot drop the rope .

 

I tried the hitch climber set up and hated it . for me is purssic all the way I love it and it keeps it simple.

Littletree I am a big fan of different size ropes for different trees.

 

Try a Blakes hitch instead of a Prussic. Same reliability as a Prussic, but nicer to climb on.

 

My dig about working hours wasn't personal, BTW!
