  1. but if they are working under your instruction then you need employers liability
  2. Acer sacharinium reduction from today, our second of 3 jobs. rubbish anchor point after previous poor pruning:thumbdown: and lots of tall thin regrowth. bark was very thin. nice day for a silky and secateur climb
  3. the bungee cord keeps the croll upright and close to your chest the 2 biners connect either side of the bridge
  4. http://arbtalk.co.uk/forum/climbers-talk/17022-srt-setup-eddie.html this setup is very similar to the ones matt and chris use, infact matt was a major influence in the refineing of my srt setup, as mine looked like something from scrap heap challenge before his input
  5. paul your efforts were greatly appriciated over the duration of the show. i came to find you to say thanks when i left so i hope the girl passed the message on i had a great time many thanks john
  6. cant fault mine, had it 2 years or so. when mine finally retires il probably replace it with another unless something else comes to the market
  7. i thought the picture with the blue poly prop was a set up...then realised you were actually rigging with it
  8. i always cut the bottom half inch off the bottom of my silky scabards as it stops them filling up with sawdust
  9. i wasnt asking for justfication mate. merely making a point as i saw it
  10. im not being funny arbclimber but its not really any of your buisness, regardless of what free information youve given
  11. thanks for your replys guys, but im sorted for the moment
  12. treeworker sell goggles at the shows
  13. your hand goes through the hollow braid loop in the top of the ascender, so when you climb hand over hand the ascender advances
  14. the krabs clip into each bridge attachment point on the treemotion as there is no dedicated srt attachment point the hand ascender is really only there to back up the croll and carry the footloop, you climb hand over hand on the climbing line
  15. pine fresh certainly and dont talk to me about bloody sap. for some reason the grub screws in the pulley on the back of the fly wheel keep loosening and then the pulley shifts backwards and forwards and causes the belts to throw
  16. not really sure mate, its not like conifer chip is the greatest anyway and judgeing by the rest of the garden id be suprised if anything gets done with it within the next 15 years
  17. she kept asking if there would be much more:lol: i did warn her that there would be a mountain of the stuff, the pile was easily 6ft high
  18. if i get a chance tomorrow il sort something out
  19. this is my setup for srt with a treemotion. cant remember what harrness you have, hope this helps mate,
