Just a little pic of me finishing of a height reduction on a Horse Chesnut, the limb i'd already reduced had a nasty split along the grain, will try to show pics of that once I learn how to resize the pics.

It always amazes me how strong trees are even with defects.

 

First climb on my new tachyon wish i'd bought more than 45m as it was only just enough.
