  1. The wraptor video is muuuuuch better! http://arbtalk.co.uk/forum/video-forum/15110-strap-wraptor-wraptor-girls.html
  2. I want a hobbs!, need is another matter:001_rolleyes:
  3. Having not seen the cocoon pulley how does the sling attach? I think it threads through and is held in place by friction? whats the maximum diameter it could take?
  4. Do you think its better than the dynaglide?
  5. Rob, is that an endless OP sling on the pulley? I think I would prefer a shorter prusik to pulley attachment although I am not sure if a shorter one would make it harder to retrieve?
  6. Where do you guys get your blades sharpened? Does any one know of any where in the North Essex/Suffolk area? What are you paying?
  7. I see the chipper behind the trailer says The Tree Wise Men. Like the idea, would be good with a twin axle and decent micr chipper.
  8. mate, I just spent around £500 on a basic lowering kit, rope, block, split tail, whoopie sling etc. £200 sounds well, too good to be true. Be careful with what you buy.
  9. 25 Ltr Oregon oil- £36.75, Jonseie:001_smile:
  10. Very true but it would be much cheaper to replace the soft link! I am frugal with my money! If the poop hit the fan it would be what ever is quickest
  11. Not trying to derail this thread but what do you reckon is the best bag, thinking about the chili bag?
  12. Paul Smith

    Awsome

    Nice vid!, surly a straight fell would have been easier?
  13. 10m XTC Plus (my old line) with an art positioner. I would have a soft link in your system though what ever you use.
  14. Paul, what do you have to do to get the AA approval, and whats the cost time scales etc? Paul
  15. Great video! Like the Bandit and did you climb the tree with the huge split?
  16. Get yourself a hitchlimber and use a VT, there are hundreds of threads on here about it. Tried it didn't like it I now use a spiderjack!
  17. I use a 262 and its very good!
  18. Thats one of the reasons I switched to a Spiderjack, never looked back since! Great job bye the way!
  19. was the decent on the fig 8 to save your main line and cord?
