Sure beats breakin the long cant hook though!

 

i have seen a 30plus stone guy bouncing his full weight on one of those and it never broke jamie,

[jojam]

Mine had a crack in it that i hadn't noticed till it broke whilst in action.Never really used it since funnily enough.Some bright spark left the hammer on the brash mat last week an the forwarder ran over it,isn't fibreglass great.

I use a fore hammer for mine an 2 rings on each wedge.Each to their own dude.I hit metal in an elm last week with a new 28'' an ripped off 5 teeth!:thumbdown:ps no pics,sorry

 

Thats the secret- get a couple of rings on the end, and they last for ages then. You should never put steel splitting wedges into a felling cut really steve:sneaky2:I find thise plastic things are good until you get a real pig of a fell and a 14lb sledge behind the wedge!!

1. A beech tree I inspected today - have a niggling feeling it might need to come down!! (Meripilus, Ganoderma and Polyporus...)

 

2. Sycamore gap on Hadrian's Wall - apparently a scene from Robin Hood was filmed here? Anyway, it was a pretty cool sight.
