Thanks

 

No special ropes Pete, just what I have. It would be nice, and save time at the start for sure. But you can imagine they were pretty static by the time they were fully loaded:biggrin:

 

Peter I didn't get on with client at all that first meeting....but he watched the whole time and knew what had gone on by the time we'd finished. Still near killed him to shake my hand at the end, but he did.

 

Arborworks, there's no video mate. I was fully focused on the job for this one.

excellent work Reg. Huge amount of graft and thought went into that.

 

Must've really pi$$ed you off not being able to get movement on the tree at first after all the prep. Been in similar situations with tirfors/block and tackle etc.

 

Saw this when looking through the pics, would be very sketchy in reality but if your tied into the big Fir and the groundie lets the piece run to the ground could've made for an interesting few seconds at 80 odd ft or whatever height you were at :001_smile:
