The petzl ball lock ones aren't too bad but it is best you try one out first as they can be fiddlely to some. Anyway shouldn't you still be using a screwgate? I always preferred those over the three way but I am now so used to three way krabs I would probably launch myself out of a tree if I tried with the good old screwgate again!

With this thread and others about the 201 it does sound like a hell of alot are either having trouble with the saw or just don't rate it compared to the 020. Maybe husky are doing the right thing by pissing about making sure its right first time!!

Nearly always use a ladder for access into the crown, only because it's more professional than using spikes. Hardly ever use them to work off, only really when it can't be done from climbing or when its alot quicker.

Ah right onto the 13 year compost heap at the bottom of the yard. Ha, do you compost it yourself then or take it to a green waste recycling site? Just wondering what everyone does, chip we give away, timber some gets processed excess given away and the useless mushy stuff goes for recycling to a GW site.
-
Those who 100% recycle what do you do with rotten timber?

Who the insurance company?
-
Not all of us. I would charge treble if it was an emergency.:humbup1: Charge a good rate, especially if the insurance are paying.

Yes it is wrong! Cant you get some nasty parasites from dogs doing stuff like that? I dont know how people let dogs like their faces and mouths!!

Heard it today, so for me it is now officially Christmas. [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HwHyuraau4Q]The Pogues & Kirsty McColl Fairytale Of New York - YouTube[/ame]

Whatever origin or ethnicity it was it tasted great. A real nice mushroomy flavour, plucked from the corpse of an elderberry I killed a few weeks ago.

Something needs to be done to help growth in small business. Whether that's tax breaks or incentives to employ or just the help with loaning I dont know but the large business have had it far too good for far too long. Makes me sick to see companies complaining that their profits are down by £xxxmillion and how they are struggling. Many small firms have been losing money not profit.

You need a new banksman! You need to see something in the mirrors, if its not the chipper or bits added on to help its a good banksman who doesnt just randomly wave then grubble stop when you are a nanometre away from something!

brought a tear to my eye. Thats the kind of Karma I receive.

Had quite a few in knuckle joints that more or less stop me having grip for a few days. Thankfully it has mainly been in my left hand.

I am hoping it is oyster mushroom, but not 100%. I have circled it in red so not to cause confusion.

To be bluntly honest nothing, I only joined because I didnt like my new harness and I still have it. Besides that all I have gleaned its lots of relevant info in regards to my business.

First pic looks like a decent one, second pic the crane driver looks a bit worried(love the halloween pumpkin carving on the crane hook ball btw:thumbup1:), third pic perspective looks a bit to cock, I hope:confused1:, fourth pic-oh my, thats a big one! As echoded, thats one of the biggest lombardies I have seen, top show.

As long as they do a mechanical check on the truck then they sound superb. Looks like a right horrible section on a set of spikes!! Only JK on the first comment(I feel the need to say that to be politically and humanely correct) but its usually the machine that fails and kills the OP rather than the OP doing something silly.

I have had the odd smoke or two since giving up 2 years ago. Never felt like starting up again, but they tasted better than I can ever remember. To me its not the nicotine at all that held me to the cigs its the habit that surrounds them. It is the best thing you can do to improve your health so stay with the quitting and remember you aint a failure if you go back, just as long as its not permanent.

You got caught with two accounts, the other being that of an inquisitive 19year old girl?
-
What an intelligent comment! How do I know of I like something without reading it? Anyway, don't post questions on a public open forum if you don't like comments.

The answer is, its a shite tree. It's not very often I take a Lombardy down that isn't rotting in the middle. An before anyone says something silly they don't all come down because of noticeable rot.

Tbh never had a problem with them. Even with fairly old 020t ones. Just make sure the manifold is all on nice and square before you put the plastic clamp on.

Another sad and tragic story. Cant imagine how bad it was for his wife who was on the job. It is good to see that some safety devices work well and do save lives.
