I was told by one of the kit inspectors last year at the AA show that it wasn't fit for purpose. I was informed that the cinch was originally a belay device for recreational rock climbing. Although it works in a lanyard configuration it isn't fit for purpose and should not be covered under LOLER for commercial operations. Don't know if he was being a jobs worth but I used it for the comp and still do.

Worked on one a couple of years ago in Hackney. It was inside an old Huguenots building. I was told that the silk weavers planted the Mulberry tree as the silk worms loved them. It was a great tree made up of around 8 individual stems that had filled a courtyard. One had fails and I had to remove the broken stem and reduce the end weight on the remaining stems. And yes it was in full fruit and very messy. http://spitalfieldslife.com/2013/04/14/the-huguenots-of-spitalfields/

File guides are over rated IMO. Have a look at a sharp cutter on another chain the same size or even another chainsaw. Learn how the cutter should look and the relationship to the file angles. The look at the distance between the depth gauge and top of the cutter. Try and match the gaps on the chain you are sharpening. I hope you can understand the above... it makes sense in my head.

And if it is the firm I think it is the staff are predominantly made up of Ozzies and Kiwis.

I think you should calm down a bit mate... You might rupture something. Yeah it is a tree being felled, badly at that but it happens. As long as it is not you or your company doing it then what's the problem..?

Santander, much maligned, but is it fair??
Rich Rule replied to skyhuck's topic in Business Management
I worked for a guy who had business banking with Santander. Took over 5 days for money to appear in my account after he had transferred it. I thought it was a bit of a p take myself as on some occasion it caused me to go overdrawn etc when mortgages went out. Same for his paye guys. Would take an age for the funds to clear. I reckon they were playing the market for a lot longer than the rest of the banks with our money. They also screwed me on a mortgage offer a few years ago. For that reason I wouldn't use them. -
I have been looking at the contour head cams. Most of the snowboard pros seem to use them along with go pro. Anyone on here use one?

Here is one I watched last night. Hardly extreme but it did make me laugh. Les Gets is in the French Alps and was part of the downhill mountain bike world cup circuit. Vido Cow Gap at @LesGets, France

It was last year but I do like this one. Pictures gives one side of the story but my verbals might not have been so calm.

Really, got a link? The hell loggers had a dude called Gord, but no connection I think.

anyone else use boxing linament to ease the aches
Rich Rule replied to Gardenmac's topic in Forestry and Woodland management
I use the Thai liniment when I am Thai Boxing. The smell reminds me of hard work. -
forgot to mention, I was only the hands operating under the telephonic instruction of a god like being. :blushing:

You would be proud of me mate... been deadwooding a number of Oaks since I got back. RW'd the lot apart from 2. Just takes a bit of time on the job to master.

Take the oil pump out and give it right old clean out... Squirting WD40 in there will hopefully clean and blast any crud out. Had it with a problem on one of my saws and it sorted it a treat.

Also HF is a massive stoner and they were all off their tits during the original filming of Episode 4. Cocaine being there drug of choice... Princess Leia had quite a nose for it, or so I am told.

FFS Grow up you lot. There are lazy people everywhere. Go out get a job or something to do with your time instead of bickering on the internet. Bloody keyboard warriors!

Never used the gransfors but they look the mutts. I had broken 2 of the Helko Varios before now. Don't rate them. I quite enjoy using a very old Elwell 4.5 I found in my old mans garage. Cleaned it up and reprofile and then sharpened. Only problem is it is so sharp it sometimes penetrates without splitting and I cannot get it out. Other than that I use whatever is at hand.

One of the fellas I have been working with recently got hold of a hank of cougar blue, best rope for the wrench he has tried. so i assume it'll rock on the Uni.
