Why don't you fellas use this sort of thing?

 

Because I guess they cost a fortune and it's cheaper to find an enthusiastic trainee to do it.

Think it's more appropriate in the states where trees are much bigger, it's an exceptional day to be working much over 70ft in this country on a regular basis but in some areas that's regularly the 1st branch.

Yeh but the picker go's left and right, this just go's up, not even down. Just used for initial access up to a high point where you can set a conventional climbing system and start working plus no good if your tree is compromised in any way.

A good tool to help but couldn't see it earnings me as much as the picker, at least not in the stunted wee trees round here 😉
