    telhol...i live 10 miles away from an arb college, and 2 miles away from one of the biggest utility arb contractors in the country. theres no shortage of climbers in my area...and im not skint

    i dont understand the reasoning there....if you have put the years in and have developed your skills so that you can complete obs quickly then you should be benfiting from that...not discounting jobs just because you're so quick. a job in theory should be worth the same money regardless who does it. if you get it done quicker and 2 twice the jobs of someone slower surely you want to earn twice as much? if not you're selling yourself way short.

    welcome bradstock

    maybe where you're from that may be the case. personally i charge a good rate and do a good job. i wouldnt be interested in working for the sort of client looking for a cheap climber.....in any trade there will always be someone out there willing to do it cheaper...but it aint me. i think your attitude is a bit off on this one mate.

    its a totally different saw....i was never much impressed with my 341 when i first had it, was running 18" bar, ended up leaving it at home most of the time.
  13. Steve Bullman
    i dont see that as much of an issue....in any rigging job theres always going to be 2 people there, the climber can help mount it before he sets to work

    once you wear through that bar and chain i'd seriously consider dropping to .325 with a 9 tooth sprocket
  15. Steve Bullman

  19. Steve Bullman

  21. Steve Bullman
    cant quite tell from the pic if its just the bark that has cracked or the wood too?
  22. Steve Bullman
    cheers
  23. Steve Bullman
    how much?
  24. Steve Bullman
    good point about the shackle. i used to use a mallion attachment cranked up tight with a spanner. not a good idea to have any device that can be opened out of sight at the top of a tree.
  25. Steve Bullman
    i have a pair i alternate between....cant really fault them
