  1. i own a cabstar and really like it mainly down to width though mine is not one of the new ones with the sticky out wing mirrors it,s biggest downside is room in the cab for all your bits and bobs both nice to drive both dear on parts though would think more stuff will be dealer only for the canter i used to run mine as my car and would not want to do that with a canter so if not going to be carrying loads of stuff all the time i would buy cabstar but tbh if i was carrying loads of weight i would still buy cabstar unless i bought the bigger canters

  3. you should of video,d it rather than been working then also why fell tree straight out into road would not across drive have been better so all brash was facing chipper also would of preferred 1 vid showing felling 1 vid showing felling 1 vid stump grinding ect maybe a shot of how deep you grind also when you reduced stump you did not use chainbrake but it,s a lot better than mine tbh

    Self Rescue

    this is my last replyas this seems to be getting personal rather than generic 1 how do you think i do not have to be competitive i have to pay all my costs inc insurance kit ect in less days than you and if i was not competitive do you think i would have any work 2 you have the same access to climbers to do govey work i presume as i dont have any 3 At the moment no LA lads round our way does jobs on a weekend for cash 4 Its up to you weather you have any spotty teanager to rescue you i would only want someone that if needed could actually do it

    Self Rescue

    Totally agree with you there we just set a lad on with his rescue ticket He will not be in a position where he is the rescuer until he has recieved further training and proved himself capable

    Self Rescue

  21. thats what i have it,s got a good optical zoom as well Very happy with it my only gripe is i got the one without a viewfinder as sun and snow shots are often hard with the screen but amazing how many are without viewfinder

    CEClimb

    can i ask why it,s worth buying the CEclimb system rather than buying them individually presumably all the parts are CE marked as a rough calculation from your site i could buy all the individual parts for the 35m tachyon system for £100 cheaper than the CEclimb system unless there is something i am missing
