  18. Same, won't deal with them, got a lightly used rg13 'demo' grinder who's clutch promptly disintegrated and they just shrugs shoulders with a tough it's a used machine what do you expect. Also had bad experiences renting orange chippers with little help from management. Not happy I now have to deal with them for greenmech :thumbdown: And mad it clear to greenmech what my feelings were! sent while pretending to do something important on my mobile.
  19. No no no keeping the spikes and getting a clapt out old rust bucket of a landy mount then training a younger person to where my spikes for me! sent while pretending to do something important on my mobile.
  20. Just signed up too do a 3 day first aid at work + F (forestry) lantra course which is tailored more towards what we will unfortunately eventually probably deal with in this industry. The arb aid training looks good as includes casualtie aerial rescue as part off it. sent while pretending to do something important on my mobile.
  21. That's why I'm looking at getting a landy mount, climb the top rig the brash, mewp the big timber to minimise spikes which hurt my duff knee with a big chainsaw hung off the back and then still tow a trailer home. Would still get in bigger machines when nessasery but would take the pressure off getting done in a day and used on those 'itd be handy' jobs insted of just the needed jobs. sent while pretending to do something important on my mobile.
  22. Kinda got too agree with that. Mr D, I use mewps quite a lot as sometimes just makes life easier also won a few jobs against a climb quote as pointed out that hse recommend if you can use em you should, just put yourself in your insurers side of things? Would you pay out if it all go's wrong and a safer alternative was available and access was not an issue? I understand some think rope is safer and in a lot of situations yes it is particularly when rigging broad crowns but on dead trees or big timber a mewp is just a know braine for me. Live to fight another day as they say! sent while pretending to do something important on my mobile.
  23. Now he knows you he will nock you out, think he was just being polite not ;-) Plus he wanted to camp next too us and not the arse paddling boys across the way! sent while pretending to do something important on my mobile.
