Nice job Reg

Nearly beer o clock & I am looking forward to a night out with the family

Depth of sink cut has little influence on this. Dimensions of hinge & failure to reduce side weight are the pertinent points
-
Been playing with a 200t a little bit. Not noticing much in the way of gain post porting the exhaust. Guess Stihl did not leave much on the table when the produced them
-
I really enjoyed that

You could get some caddy pads for your existing spikes or buy new ones if you choose. May have to import them from somewhere like wesspur but they are very comfortable
-
Hahaha. I will step out of this thread of fantasy & make believe now as you are obviously going to waste your life with your pretend god. Bye bye
-
Nope - praise paddington bear. He would be a cool make believe friend !

What are you expecting to pay?

460 is a powerfully dependable saw. Would serve you well

In my interpretation of the wahr, you climb the tree & use your rope for positioning. If we did anything else we would have to adhere to different legislation. Get the drift of what I am saying? It is sometimes equally important to think about how we say things, not just what we say
-
Tim, are you climbing the rope or the tree?
-
Now you guy's are all climbing & working srt, then do you think there are other protocols to follow like the IRATA climbers. 2 ropes for example?
-
I wish there was no religion in the world as it would be a better place for all - even the insecure who think they need it

Yale blaze in bashlin colours, was called inferno & imported by fletchers

You could use a fig8 as well as a blakes. Therefore backing it up & taking the pressure off you hitch
-
What equipment do you have on your harness?
Pete Mctree replied to button1803's topic in Climbers talk
Lanyard, silky, fig 8, 1st aid kit, krabs with slings x2, rope guide if needed, large throw bag for climbing line , small plastic wedge & a saw to cut whatever size timber I'm working on. All bits & bobs fit in a bag so not much clutter -
If it is NOT ppe then you all need to investigate the relevance of using a hitch srt. If it is, then it needs testing in conjunction with a hitch Either way the current ambiguity will not further the use of this or similar systems

Religion is like smoking - enjoyed by those who are addicted - those in the grasp see no bad or harm in there dirty habit. - those who quit go on to be healthier & more socially acceptable I can continue if need be......

Alternative rigging pulleys
Pete Mctree replied to Salix Tree & Countryside's topic in Rigging and roping
Great if your going to use hard rigging for your anchor. Bad radius for cordage. Nice kit for redirects etc but not sure about catching loads when negative blocking -
With Christians being in such a minority, is it right to call ourselves a religious country of any persuasion? Why tar ourselves with such a label when we could say a free country - free to believe anything or not as an individual chooses
-
The power that the imaginary friend/god has over believers is frightening. It is a crutch for the weak & justification to war, control& manipulate for the powerfully. Often enables the denigration of women. An author ; R A Wilson noted that "when dogma enters the brain, all intellectual activity ceases" true words in most cases. I despise the religion not the follower as some of them are the best of us.
-
Haha your a fool if you think council teams are all lazy & unproductive, employing poor staff. The wages are usually compativley good, conditions excellent, kit first class thus attracting the better climbers & tree workers.
-
I am curious. How many of you complaining are compliant enough across the board with regards to legislation & in practice to get LA work?

Tax payer is the client Have a good day mate
