As it happens, yes. it was about 20plus years ago and I was taking down a dead birch. The boss was old school and decided to lend me his old 020 (original, not an old schooler calling an ms200 an 020). I did an outboard step cut and the piece fell with the bar trapped in the curf. As it fell I had hold of the two handles. The piece continued to the floor with the bar and most of the saw. I still had hold of the two handles, the rest hit the deck. There was just a few wires hanging out of the handle and the fuel lines LOL. The saw lanyard just ripped the metal D ring out of the back of the saw. He wasn’t happy, in fact he gave me a right bollocking. I don’t think I have used an outboard step cut since on a horizontal piece.

In recent years the ring for hanging the saw in a TM harness is green. Green is also life support so no breakaway built into the harness. Hence the reason to use a production lanyard with a breakaway built in.

Lovely place. I grew up in Hartburn and regularly used to frequent the Black Bull and the Claggy mat (cross keys) pub. I would take a look for you but I no longer live in the area let alone the country. Best of luck.

Looking like a slick gunslinger from the Wild West. 😁

Not sure if it is my Mac or a universal issue but I cannot condense threads when you are a the unread threads pages. It has done this before but usually fixes itself. EDIT: Sack that! it has just fixed itself.

It won’t damage the rope fibre to my knowledge. i used to beat the shit out of tough splices and then try to manipulate the throat of the splice and rinse and repeat till it is buried to the mark of the eye. are you shock loading the splice? I used to tie it off to my bench with a long sling and shock it that way until I switch to the tow hitch in my truck as I pulled the bench off the wall in my old workshop.

Did you try beating the throat with a mallet to tenderise it when you are trying to bury it? I find it helps quite a bit on ropes with a tight jacket.

Looks more like a calisthinetics class. What going on there then?

Did you watch the whole interview or did you just watch edited clips?

Did you have comms?

I thought the opposite. Zelensky came across as a disrespectful person. Show a bit of humility to the ones trying to help you.
