Must be something to do with my iPad's settings Jim as it will not play through the app either.

Hi Reg. Would it be a lot of trouble to make the vid playable on mobile devices etc? I cannot view it on the iPad

A wide face cut will keep it closer to the stem

Good job Reg, It's a great tool to have in the box indeed. I try & place the back-cut level with the front cut - less vertical wood to split in the hinge (you can retain a bigger hinge ), less chance of over cutting & having your saw taken with the piece & easier to see & judge such a fine hinge - hope that all makes sense
-
Good job & I'm glad it went well
-
Nice, but I prefer the look of the new Rangers

You broke more than the top cover : I will give you the full list when I get back in

Hypothetical Question Chrismas Day Call Out ?

If your not prepared to be reasonable financially - just don't do it & enjoy the hols Double time seems sensible for xmas/bank hols -
Some decent sized trees there Jim - good job

You can damage them through abuse - what can't be? Great bit of kit IMO

I use both powered & silky pole saws when needed. "I'm sorry i don't have the purity of ethics to climb out further over those those phone lines, I'll just cut the branch from here, using less effort & taking less time" ":thumbup: Joking aside, every tool has it's place - it's choosing the time & place to optimise it's use that is the hard part.
-
Is that a nimrod? Makes a change for sure
-
Different Gord If I remember correctly. Bloody big tree
-
Can see why you did not put that in the " Rate my hinge " thread
-
It is a cut of convenience for me. I am not skilled enough to use it in a critical situation, despite my increased success with the cut.

How often do you achieve 4" lift with wedges?

Hitch Hiker thread.
Pete Mctree replied to Old Mill Tree Care's topic in SRT (Single Rope Technique)
I have had the HH quite a long time now & have tried a lot of variations . The best & most consistent set/up I have found is the original with the beeline. Thinner cord was too twitchy with sry. The vt required too much attention on ddrt & was too agressive on srt & the Knut I found was too difficult to release. Just my finding -
We recently changed up to a Bandit after our 250 fell apart. You loose the turntable, but it is a step up in construction & performance imho

Thanks

I don't understand what you are trying to say.
