Don't care for such things Andy. I would rather forget it happened & hope the company owner does not
-
Awesome job:thumbup1:
-
I cut my arm- major lasceration, whilst working for a company that; Said they had EL & PLI insurance - WRONG Had 1st Aid & Arial rescue tickets - WRONG My fault - I did not check

T H White wrote such classics as "The Once and Future King" & "The Sword in the Stone" Selling chippers must be a side-line
-
if they are employed to "climb" they are an employee in my opinion. If they are brought in to "wreck a tree out" they could be sub-contractors. It's all thin ice & I just covered them as employees, as the courts would side with them no doubt

You looked that old to start with? Where was your paper round? Must have been brutal:001_tt2:

see-saw

1 cut - at ground level. It's rubbish having to go back for a small piece. Saw in one hand, tree in other - walk to chipper
-
You choked a sling though the LJ ? If the sling is rated, it should not be a problem. Have you a pic? The ropeman is not a good idea. Can be a ropecutter when you take a good drop
-
I footlock, spike up, use srt or ddrt to access, then use ddrt or srwp to work the tree depending on what needs doing. What do I tick
-
Daniel, it's not a good cut. The separation is too dynamic as opposed to a top& bottom cut correctly executed. I'm not going to comment further, apart from noting my dislike of your arguing methods. Beating down others who disagree is not discourse & your aggression makes it quite difficult to reply to some of your posts. Shame as you bring up some interesting points
-
How did you calculate the SWL for the bollard?
-
take it you can type better than walk then:lol: Enjoy mate:biggrin:
-
Good Andy, but you are no.1. What you survived & battled through no could tree test you that way. I'm proud to know you Andy & call you my friend
-
Apart from snatching big timber it sounds like it will take a good workout (big timber kills everything)
-
If the winch is the same size, is your mounting plate too small? Not trying to be negative, just what springs to mind
-
Cool. Have you considered a fair-lead to ensure the smooth feeding of the rope onto the winch? What are you using to attach it to the tree?
-
Used 2. first impressive, 2nd very poor. Depends on the construction. Every bit of kit commences being "home-made"
-
Nice job Mr Haine
-
Some people appreciate constructive criticism, other think there above it & attract negative comments. Which they ignore of course, ending dialog & pouring a thread into the gutter
-
Whippet pups are so funny. All legs. I love it when they learn to run fast, but not stop or turn
-
It must have all ended in Oz & NZ by now
-
Great job & some very nice iron
-
Have you retuned it? They are garbage when not run spot-on

+3 to what Scotspine said
