  1. Why? It is not load-bearing, it merely provides the adjustment for the system
  2. Either climb the tree or decline. Knowing your limits is not failiure. BSing is another story

  7. I thought that was one of my more polite answers:001_tongue:
  8. From AFAG - Identify the appropriate equipment, number of workers and skills required. A minimum of two people must be present during all tree-climbing operations. One of the ground team must be available, competent and equipped to perform an aerial rescue without delay If your employing a ticketed groundie, who is not competent then you are not compliant. Period. Plus if you run a ltd company, you are an employee, hence you have a duty of care to yourself. You could be prosecuted as company owner.
  9. I quoted to fell it 3 years ago. The rips arnt big enough for me. I'm improving them under my tuition at the council though:001_tongue:

  18. I think it's a great pic and utilisation of the tree. Usually the idiots erect the cameras oon poles adjacent to the tree, then fell it as it obscures the field of vision.

  23. DIRECTIONS; We are aiming to meet between 10.30 and 11am at Bradley Wood, Brighouse. Below is the multimap link. The postcode is HD6 3TU. This will take you into the Scout camp in the main part of Bradley wood, but you can't get there without passing our meet point. You will see it Maps of the world, street map search - powered by Multimap If coming on the M62, exit at J24 Huddersfield. On the main big roundabout take the third exit A643 towards Brighouse, keep on that road till you come to a set of lights, turn right, at the next roundabout turn left onto the dual carriagway towards Brighouse. When the dual carraigeway ends, turn right onto woodhouse lane and then immedaitely right again onto Shepherds thorn lane. follow shepherds thorn lane till you come to a steel farm gate on your left more or less infront of you with stone pillars either side and a scout sign. Go thru that gate and you'll see us 100 yards on your right. Stop and say hello :wave: my mobile for anyone who get's lost is 0800TUFF-U-LOST
  24. Interesting about the rope selection. Thanks
