  1. Thank you Matthew.[emoji106]
  2. It's just for me
  3. I'm trying to make a dead eye sling using tenex tec 19 mm. I've buried the tail a fid's length back into the rope. Should i use whipping. Thanks for any help
  4. Could be from OPM ( Oak Processionary Moth Caterpillars ).
  5. I still prefer tweezers like these.
  6. What about this one. It's only 80 grams
  7. I Left this rigging sling in a scots pine just before our holidays , that was four weeks ago. I'll try some butter , but i think a new one is the shopping list
  8. the new layout looks very commercialized. I'm still glad it finished. looking forward to the Arbtalk app
  9. Looking at this picture [ATTACH]222567[/ATTACH] Reminds me of a jungle.
  10. it's smooth for sneding but rough for a felling cut.
  11. No , just one or two branches ( Lammas growth )
  12. [attach]222513[/attach]
  13. Is the same happening with Stihl Motomix or are people converting to Aspen.
  14. Yep http://teknikensvarld.se/toyota-hilux-now-handles-the-moose-test-470061/
  15. Anybody tried these felling cuts. [ATTACH]222421[/ATTACH]
  16. It would be nice to have picture from the other side as well. Like Spruce Pirate said it seems to be leaning in two different directions. And being of small diameter a real problem tree.
  17. I don't know anything about trucks but I thought this was interesting [ame] [/ame]
  18. I think you're right Barry , it was like that when i first got it. My post from October 2015
  19. I've ordered OEM pot and piston for 75 pounds sterling.
  20. Maybe the latter
  21. Here's another two pictures from the piston [ATTACH]222312[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]222313[/ATTACH] A lot of carbon at the top of the barrel. Maybe with me charging over to aspen loosened the carbon off.
  22. The old 020 t which i got from a caretaker never had power , poor compression . After taking it apart , i'll be ordering a pot and piston. [ATTACH]222309[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]222310[/ATTACH]
  23. SafeBloc is a triple hole thimble that adds friction in the rigging system to the top of the tree, thus adding safety by reducing rigging point stress, compared to a system that uses a block or pulley
  24. Thanks Matty , the accommodation is now sorted.
