  1. I can't even find the seller!
  2. This is a serious thing , can we start some vigilante groups up?
  3. There is that , made that one of carbon sheet an old pulley and a RW pin tbh honest throw hooks seem to work with what ever you put on them even a dirty old prussik ! That set up is tuned sweet although a little bulky I do run it on liros or blaze usually though and have a carabiner in the epple hook.
  4. I use a rope wrench and vt on my throw hooks and clip in like normal SRT and walk across on the foot ascenders and haas as usual for transfers , fast and works great.
  5. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/262983652817 Worth a look over the Chinese stuff , tp make good Chipper's.
  6. Try and look around a few inches bigger than that for feeding ,a small diameter chipper is not to thrilling and a drawn out experience,If you can find a 6" timberwolf pto chipper might be worth a punt ,definitely try and find a machine with twin feed rollers other wise its probably easier and quicker to stack it up cart it away and burn it.. also some pto Chipper's are designed for biomass even the smaller models and are hopeless in anything other than straight timber. Have you looked at the jo beu models ? They are not pto having there own engine but around your price range second hand and chip great small material... saying that if there is a small pto drum chipper out there that could work well but haven't seen one in over 20 years.. haven't looked tbh though !
  7. I gave a mint Jameson head away a while back you should of said !
  8. You can get replacement springs and blades for the sandvik give it a birthday mate... the Jameson's head is tiny, like a 3" cut max. https://www.bahcostore.com/itemparts/p34-37
  9. Should just run as normal , I found any of my auto tune saws need occasionally re doing like big changes in air temps and I haven't used them for a while or if they have been ran hard blunt seems to upset them.
  10. We have been running these and can't fault them ,you can buy 3 for the price of one senna and still have change , the only issue is only three will connect but mostly we only use 2 any way.
  11. Cut cookies or rings flat out with out letting off the throttle in between cuts and it should retune and settle down.
  12. So am I rich.... if he had gone lower they would be complaining about the kink on the trunk messing up there bunks on the forwarder so you can't win... either it's way lower than some of the stumps on the last site I've just come off made by so called experts. Good to see you back John, great photos.
  13. As Mick says make sure you seal the ends , last cherry I milled ended up as fire Wood it was that bad.
  14. I'll try and get her to reply mate , she liked it a lot though.. and gave it a big thumbs up.
  15. The features are in the vid , my bad .. it does not make them that clear or really focus on them long enough to make it sink in and think wow I thought.
  16. It needed that rain we got Thursday!
  17. Craig my only criticism is the video ! Does not show off many of your harnesses great features like the sliding bridge or top harness .. I'm still yet to work in one so don't want to big it up massively but I certainly would pay the extra...
  18. We had a good look at the show , if I was in the market for a new harness I would buy it with out a doubt over another tree motion. Made and designed in the uk , the whole bridge system slides with your movement not just the anchor ring on the bridge ( hard to explain unless you have a play with it!)so will not be digging in your sides is what makes me want one when my tree motion needs replacing, Rachel tried on the Gemini version and said she's never tried a more comfy harness.the three bridge options is a good idea for many reasons , the leg padding does not look like it will cut off your circulation if left suspended like most CE harnesses and most importantly it does not have those elastic bits to twang your arse and make your eyes water that the tree motion does also the accessory top half means you can use it in a mewp.

    560 woes

    It's going well ! would like to replace the fuel lines and carb boots as it seems to possibly have an air leak as it over runs? Don't know if that's the auto tune trying to make sense of the mods as it's only occasionally doesn't it .... I guess I should ship it back to you at some point.

    So is the short block the best way forward Steve ? I seem to remember the Conrod and bearings separate was more or about the same to replace!
  21. Ash tree 4thjune 2015
  22. RIP. Sad news to hear.
  23. Why do we have the same thread every year ? At least we could resurrect the old one to do a comparison!
  24. Aye but if you liked to post stupid memes about how great you are you probably would ... that's kinda the point , I thought It was a good Pish take !
  25. Open air ascents great and as hungry squirrel says team up with a knee acsender... a must really for SRT climbing but still good on a double rope.
