  1. I think a lightweight version would be good.
  2. that happened to mine , I replaced it the best I could.
  3. Just a guess , Ponderosa Pine (Pinus ponderosa).
  4. 18 pounds sterling here in Germany , from almost every DIY and Gardening store.
  5. looking good , all done with a handsaw or chainsaw.
  6. Vicky Barnes: British sprint cyclist on her recovery from horrific crash http://www.bbc.com/sport/cycling/41940925 Respect [emoji110]
  7. 25 cm bar , less teeth to sharpen as well.
  8. Is the 2018 calendar out already.
  9. Maybe something like this. https://www.skylotec.com/uk_en/catalogsearch/result/?q=RECORD About 700 grams and passed for tree work , sport climbing and industrial work. A trip to shop would be the best bet. Or get three or four harnesses delivered and keep the best one ( for you that is ). Or go tactical with this one. Tree tribe onyx. You’ll probably end up getting another petzl.
  10. Having sharpened this chain for the first time today ( i bought a batch of four to change round ). It was easy to sharpen and very smooth cutting ( Scots Pine ) . In fact i used the wrong file size 7/32 instead of 3/16. Maybe this is a very good chain after all.
  11. Two windblown pines occupying four gardens all nicely done with the help of a tifor winch ( godsend ). Sorry no pictures , can never be bothered.
  12. I usually retrieve mine before leaving the tree. It’s not foolproof , it still gets stuck. Just something to know , the ART RopeGuide has a larger pulley.
  13. Oh well , the windscreen isn’t so dirty anymore
  14. I try to leave the dirty cut to the last.
  15. From watching the video it works great. But I’ve still got my pantin. I think most new products are good ( at least for some people ).
  16. Research at more than 60 protected areas in Germany suggests flying insects have declined by more than 75% over almost 30 years. Any ideas what’s causing this.?
  17. I’ve used ladders to cover a garden pond. Or to climb over a fence. Don’t own any myself , but most homeowners have them.
