  1. Climbing Harnesses - Treeworker.co.uk if i were looking at a new harness in youre situation, on the tree worker website id be looking at the Sequoia, Treemagineers, Treeflex (got one spare, very comfy), EKN, Eldrid (my everyday one-very good AKA tree magic) hope this helps
  2. that looks absoutly HIDEOUS!!! lol, have you a climbing shop near you mate?
  3. are you still on a prussik tony? many who have changed to a vt style have improved or reduced their problems by the more symetrical/ergonomic movements the vt climbing style brings
  4. did you use a chain saw to carve out the holes for youre joints? have you wedged (technical term!) the joint on the outside?
  5. nice work john and tony. john, a collegue at work uses a womans knee brace for his elbow, really rates it
  6. very nice bart! made this table for my mothers birthday (yesterday)out of the yew i milled earlier in this thread
  7. thats the one, you have to use a lorry with one in youre test
  8. hi lee, i done my rigid about a year ago with DTT, based youre side of bury st edmunds, cost about £1100, 3 days training, theory and practicle test and we were using the term splitter box too, really liked using that actually
  9. jack front left, and rear right wheel off the ground and support with axle stands, put in diff lock, and slowley engage first low on tick over, the wheels off the ground should rotate, now try and hold one of the slowley spinning wheels, if you can and only the un-held wheel spins, diff isnt working, if you cant hold the wheel, (dont try too hard!) diffs working (very dangerous btw!)
  10. . if a half shaft has gone, you wont go anywhere without difflock. does youre diff lock light illuminate? if you put it in diff lock, and turn on tarmac, does it scrub tyres/jump/smash transfer box to 1000 pieces?
  11. with no diff lock, a landrover is actually 1 wheel drive, with center diff it is 2wd, (1 wheel on each axle)
  12. youre inbox is full!

    and speaking to a dealer who reckons he sells stihls to huskys at a rate of 30-1 must speak volumes too
  20. could well be Ardkinglas Chris, all i know was it was west coast of scotland, and a larch need to ask shreks wee brother for the true location!
  21. thats just disturbing dan!! good effort!
  22. ive seen his work, both steves banners, and a friend whos recently started a landscaping buisness, certainly a high quality!
  23. haha! well, the other option was firewood, which would really have upset you tom! still yet to get a ripping chain, just been using normal chains on nearly new 36"880. think the quality of normal chains is pretty good, so will look foward to when i do eventually get some rip chains!
