What an idiot, scary thinking about how many untrained people can get hold of such a dangerous tool, then use it above their heads??? & off a ladder as well???? Well serves him right.
-
both reductions look really good mate
-
yep i know what you mean, it's been like that down here too but now works picked up lets hope it stays that way
-
cheers fella, just thought i'd put it back on here to wind the americans up lol
-
yeh really good fella, i'm still on here daily, just lurking in the background, works really busy at the moment & i'm studying for the tec cert at merrist wood so couldn't be happier or stressed lol, how about you?
-
just fancied another look lol

nice work, looks really good too

i think you'll find it's the rfs cert arb, i recomend you do this as an evening course at plumpton, east sussex, then perhaps do the aa tec cert also part time one day a week at merrist wood, guildford.

The pictures are really nice, i love this time of year, must try to get out this weekend & take some photos myself.
-
ok, think i've found it, stem radius ® root plate radius(rr) in windthrown trees.
-
i've been asked to find out what is meant by the ratio R/RR in relation to tree root systems? i can't find the answer in any literature or the net, so hopefully someone knows the answer to this one, many thanks, glen.

Cheers Steve, much appreciated, is there anyone else out there studying for their tec cert?
-
you should always prune back to good strong growth points, never top or tip. just wondering are you doing any training at all for this?
-
When i did mine i was asked a few questions on best times of year for prunning & different species responsies to different types of prunning so make sure you know what you're talking about, keep a cool head & take your time, also as mentioned above you can do this with just your silky

Hiya, i'm back to Merrist Wood on wednesday for the first time in about ten years to study the Tec Cert, not sure if i'm nervous or excited but there's definatly something going on in the belly, anyway i am looking for any info about the course, whether it was enjoyable, i'm sure it is, how hard you found it, what to expect etc, for the last couple of months i've dusted off the old books & been reading around an hour a night, when i can at work, usually about half an hour & couple of hours over the weekend. Anyway any info about the course will be very helpfull, many thanks, Glen.

Well done everyone for passing the written side of things & good luck for the management exercises, I am off to Merrist Wood in Sept to start my Tec Cert & i'm looking for any info that will help me out, I have access to all the literature i need & i have been reading books on arboriculture for years so hopefully it wont be too foreign, I'm also going to work with the local tree officer once a week so that should help me out as well. Just really want to know what i'm letting myself in for, many thanks.

today the heat started to get ridiculous so i went and bought a camel back from the local mtb shop, holds 2 litres of water and seems pretty light, haven't tried it yet, does anyone else use them & what do they think of them, are they uncomfortable & get in the way when climbing?
-
nice pics, love pine dismantles

After 11 years of climbing on a prussik i've now for the past two months been converted to using a vt & pulley, starting to get used to it now, climbed like a right newbee first off, well funny:blushing: definatly seeing the benifits in this system, especially as i'm feeling old lately
