they say to retire it immediately you see the crack but that it wont fail on the way out of the tree.

a 346xp would be my choice although that could be somthing to do with the fact its my only saw!! still good for that stuff though, i would stick to pro saws as its tough on saws. carl

thanks for replys to my question, one more is it using a chest assender? hope so as just borrowed one to try and knock up a quick version to see if i like it. thanks carl

thanks rich that looks simple enough to make, is it much better over a pantin and hand assender and foot loop combo?? thanks carl
-
i have a nice set by "king tony" ( i know sounds cheap and ****!) but its tough out and has a long ext bar so get nearly 2ft of leverage, good for stubborn stuff. all in a steel case and a lifetime warranty. carl

maybe some people are still learning? maybe doing cash jobs to fund training? its hard to make accurate assumptions by driving past and having a nose, maybe the client requested the tree to be halved. as others have said just try and do the best you can. carl

so airstreams are better then??
-
i have had a pair of the woodwalkers and thinks they are comfy and have worn well just wondering if the airstreams where 30 odd quid better!? thanks carl
-
cool thats exactly how i did it and it seemed to just drop off instantly, thanks
-
cool thanks for the tips, it was just one of those trees with leggy flat limbs that would fit if dropped dead flat, and when hung on and landed on their tip, ER ... didnt fit!! ended up rigging bigger bits for peace of mind and to be honest not sure if it was any slower than just crashing it down, as there a big difference in processing a dropped limb as apposed to lowered one. we were using a back handled saw, a lot easier on the wrists and elbows i find. thanks again. carl

after tips on getting end heavy species( ie macrocarpa) to fall flat down and not hang on. someone suggested " the box cut" seemed to work well although wasnt sure if i was doing it correctly. any thoughts. thanks carl
