Bet you don't one hand that!?

 

Seriously, what's the application for a saw that weights that much?

Joe, buy Gerry Beraneks 'High Climbers and Timber Fallers' and see!

150' top taken 150' up with an 090 with a 6' bar.

Biggest top ever taken I reckon, and he was one-handing the saw at the end.

Google it. Chapter is 'Rockport'.

 

I'll lend you the book if you like, but you can pay the postage!

Just out of interest why would you not use a lanyard?

 

They help far more than they hinder, in fact they dont have any negative's ime.

 

TBH I wouldnt be happy grounding for someone who didnt use a lanyard, especially since those who have used a saw without a lanyard have admitted to dropping saws.

 

Not having a go just curious tbh.

Milling mostly, I'd never use it up a tree, I'd never start it!

Cheers Mark, they're going for around £50, so I'll probably buy it.

 

It'll be a great frame for reference when I start wussing out in what I think is a tall tree.

 

Is that the photo when they're standing on a board that's tied to the trunk? I'd crap myself trying to start the saw!

That doesn't need a strop it needs it's own crane to use it up a tree!
