What about for compensation if someone crashes in to it/sets fire to it/maliciously damages it etc?
-
I love my buffalo but there is no way I would wear it to work - too expensive to rip up and too warm to work in. Nice to wrap up warm at lunch time I suppose. Wore mine nearly all the way up Kilimanjaro - was good and warm until about -20deg.

Very nice as usual Matty - I really like your reductions.
-
I think mine was about £45 for the line with snap hook and another £20 for the micro-grab.
-
I have a yale 3m wire core flipline with an ISC micro-grab on it. It's bloomin' marvellous - the snaphook is super easy to quickly attach and the micro-grab works fine on it too.

Blimey! Nice pics. How was the customer in regards to your report? Were your caveats enough to cover your ass?
-
dammit ed, just trying to wind him up!
-
Great pics ben - looks like all went tickety boo. Never done a crane job, respect to you man!

Cool, in that case I don't need to buy one after all. The mango shall live on!
-
'we'?

Ha, nice excuse! Apart from spiking live trees, I still wouldn't advocate lone climbing. All it takes is a rope stuck on a stub below and how you getting down?
-
Congrats sir! Hope your first job is a good 'un. Let us know how it all goes of course.

There are some nice looking Black Diamond lids on Treeworker.com - does anyone know if there are compatible with visor and muffs etc?
-
Is it 3 years? Mmm, in that case I need a new one too. I have the vertex vent at the moment in a very fetching mango colour. How does the Kong magic compare? BTW Peter, don't you find black helmets a bit hot in the summer?
-
Thats because it is AIE (Aboricultural Info Exchange) not AEI. Easy!
-
Cool, nice one Adam. Nice pics - except the middle one which is a little bit boring if I may be so rude. Looked like a nice tree.
-
Superb!! Thanks Angus.
-
at least that made sense.

You can say that again!! Today one of my mongoose 3 way krabs stuck closed. Luckily it was just on my saw strop and not on my lifeline. Admittedly I haven't climbed on it (therefore looked after it and lubricated it) for a while, but I was shocked at how difficult it was to undo. Took me about 5 minutes working at it on the ground with a bit of chain oil to help loosen it. Has this happened to anyone else? I guess I can't really blame the manufacturer as I haven't maintained it properly but it was certainly an eye opener on how important it is to look after your krabs.

I make it a hatrick!:wave:
-
And not a very good one either. You are obvious dude, whoever you are!
-
All the best, hope to hear the good news soon.
