  1. That just makes it worse.
  2. S1 disc prolapse, very,very painful, gay wrist syndrome.
  3. Very nice work Reg as usual, I would like to see how you strap the camera on.
  4. I know of a fair few people like that Andy, they are not slow though, but they do use old school methods and equipment.
  5. Nice pics Mr Silvafox. Blue sky day.
  6. Your local ex army store will have very hard wearing kit bags.
  7. Never used a re direct.
  8. That is the downside having the PC in the front room, "Oh yeah, talking about tree work eh?" Eye's boring in.
  9. Oh yeah, especially when she saw a certain lady on the Treehouse.
  10. Yeah! What you talking about Willis?
  11. VT for me.
  12. Well, Mr Tee took some pics of the same set up on Tuesday that he posted on the Treehouse. http://gypoclimber.com/showthread.php?t=7600 Trouble is the access was crap so it didn't really make any difference, three of us on it yesterday, four today, Danners climbing plus they have to go back one day next week to finish the job, the guy that priced it said "Easy day for three" and priced it at 500 quid.
  13. Fiddle block, that was the only limb we could do like that, the rest had to lower off it's self with a extra pulley into the neighboring garden, it was just too long and heavy and the drag from the neighbors was about the same anyway.
  14. Example of pretensioned lowering line, it worked very nicely unlike a later one I didn't bother to pretension which smashed two brick buttresses off the neighbors wall. Tree is/was a Holm Oak and yes, it was raining.
  15. Carrs is my local dealer, if you want me to go in it would be no problem.
  16. I thought it was something to do with the picture size but must be wrong.
  17. I will take two, just charge it to Rollers account.
  18. I was using a 10 inch PTO chipper like yours last week on a site clearance job, it was excellent, shame it wasn't mine. Cost the owner 5k.
  19. Can we go on about how they talk funny?
  20. Chipping Sodbury?, who do you work for?
  21. Hang on! Smoking allowed, in a enclosed public place?? I am calling the law.
  22. Yeah, I think the heat from the saw affected the oil, the saw shop said it was because he had mixed his bio oil with mineral oil, which he hadn't, the Sthil, bio bar oil, which is more expensive, has no such problems.
  23. I don't know if it's a bad batch but my mate has been using this oil and it's blocked up most of his saws, he took them into the local saw shop and got them cleaned out only for the same thing to happen again. The oil had congealed into a jelly like substance in the tanks. I have just cleaned out one of his MS200t's today and it is very stubborn stuff to remove from the oil pump, I have also, this same week, cleaned out two of my other mates saws, Ms200 and a 044 with the same problem.
  24. Last Friday, nearly the end of the day, we got called out to this Split Ash tree. Sorry about the video being on it's side, that's Stu's fault as he was filming. http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=qeRJXCsOojI http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=ILbLUcBMUp8
