  1. Stopped out this morning and by the time I got home the missus had a shoulder of Pork in the slow cooker. All flavoured up and just a cooking! Bummed about with the kids, a little snooze when they went to a birthday party. Woke up to pulled pork with caramelised red onion, roast sweet potatoes and steamed broccoli. Best thing was the pork was so filling and delicious we couldn't eat it all and there is at least enough to feed the family tomorrow as well.
  2. I think that is what I'd have done. Wouldnt fancy setting it with throw lines as I'd want to know the branches would be able to take the strain of me hanging off it.
  3. Good thinking Tim, Like the tune too. I take it you set the highland with throw-ins or did you climb each spruce tree?
  4. Enjoyed that mate. I think I have heard that tune before though
  5. Sorry mate, but I strongly disagree. Memories are good but they are even better when you have a fat wad in your back burner, plus a few memories.
  6. Hello mate. Great vid . You liking the Bone? I find it gets better with every climb. Looked a cold day in Japan.
  7. So are you not softbankhawks? Nice video by the way.
  8. Very good. I like that.
  9. Good job. Dont envy you on that one though Im afraid!
  10. Good little clip mate. How do you determine where to make the cuts?
  11. Set the save with the pulley through the loop as your anchor point. Thread the eye of your rope first through the smaller Prussic eye. This is a retrieval point. Continue your line I to and out of the larger pully and connect back to you climbing system. When your finished and on the ground. Put the retrieval ball on the spliced eye and pull the lot through. The ball should go through the larger pulley and get caught on the smaller eye and pull the lot out of the tree for you. Hope you can make sense of all that.
  12. Nice work Adam. Did the old boy look amazed at all your new fangled stuff? Such as your rope ... Haha.
  13. I would get one of these. Try it you will love it. I hav pre ordered a RR. Whenever it arrives, Ill give it a blast, if I don't like it Ill flog it! Simple.
  14. A little vid of the bone in action...
  15. Great stuff Reg. I managed to watch it at lunchtime whilst I was having a break from the nightmare conifer job I was on. Oh, it was cold and snowing also... Your vid cheers me up. At least until I had to climb back in the dirty bloody hedge
  16. Great work mate and some big old pieces there. The crane looked fairly far away, what tonnage was it?
  17. Can't understand how that happened. That area probably has a number that busses every minute. Why did that bus impact a branch and not the one before it? Where was the offending branch? All the trees looked to have clearance above the public transport.
  18. Cheers Reg. Dry weather and a bit of sunshine make nearly all jobs much more enjoyable. Whereas the day before we did 6 much larger ones in the wind and driveing rain. In a strange way it was enjoyable but would have been sublime in the dry.
  19. Apparently, according to Brad snelling, exhaust mod and advance of the timing by 6degrees is the best you will get out of the saw. I sent him a message on Facebook asking how to advance the timing by 6 degrees... He responded by saying you have to advance the timing by 6 degrees! Bloody engineers.
  20. Do a few cuts, remove plug and look at the colour. Replace plug do a quite a few more cuts, remove plug. Adjust carb according to the colour of the plug.
  21. Nice vids John. What Gopro is it and what settings? Just wondering as there is a big black border around the footage. Cheers Didn't fancy the bone mate?
  22. 48 of the buggers Josh. Ill be seeing Beech in my sleep..!
  23. Good comparison there mate. I did mine quite some time ago and the difference s like night and day! Also bear in mind that after you modded the exhaust the taper of the timber is getting fatter and it still cuts much quicker.
  24. Standard 10" bar on the 150 Robert. It has had the exhaust modded though and a retune.
  25. Haha cheers Dan.
