  1. värsågod 2 diffrent trees
  2. A fatty in skinny jeans
  3. I had troubles finding it in the search and on Xersuis profile a few days back also
  4. When you're fat arm is the size of a normal person the 2 brunettes look tasty though
  5. Doing well thanks! Always intrested when rigging or finess is involved especially with cradling techniques, as anyone can limb up, chog down and make a time consuming mess at the bottem!
  6. Nice work! How long did the job take?
  7. Hi Cartman, whats the above mean and how can you have a cert in this industry and be studying further without the fundamental knowledge of basic tools and practices? More aimed at the system than you btw:001_smile:
  8. hej t, what happened to the tv oak thread?

  9. You have naff all decent competition on the tree side dont you mike? and im guessing not much outside intrest in buying christians side of the tree buisness, so possibly not much more than the sum of the shared tools and a token amount if youre buying his side out?
  10. That links really interesting, thanks for that!
  11. The next best thing, echo, then dolmar/makkita, then silky and if things get really bad, husky
  12. Ballsy!!!
  13. I just book an extra baggage allowance, BA is cira 30quid per extra 23kg, (free 7kg hand luggage, and 1x23kg checked in) and if youre over by a few kg's theyre normally ok, Ryan air isnt the cheapest when you need extra bags, 16kg max, and upto 60quid per extra bag pre booked. and screw you if youre over by anything. ryan air make their money on the extras, and penalties and dont give you free booze or food
  14. 6 months ago my main work got me a 201t, been using it everyday, tuned it, retuned it, not half the saw a 200 is, so much so ive brought another new 200t for myself, its so much better from the off
  15. A HD 110 will give everything you want other than the rear prop. . .
  16. great job mate!
  17. Ive heard that also, and Stihl have dropped it from this years Swedish catalouge
  18. Haha, that poor little chipper, never none a hard days work in its life , , , ,
  19. Fiver says theres atleast 5 saw scuffs on branches near the 'pruning' points you've attempted
  20. You only get shafted if you're doing something wrong!
  21. Now ive tuned up my 201 im still sitting on the fence about it in general. picked up a 200 today, much more lively and responsive I really wouldnt want to run a 201 on a 7t sprocket 14" bar, i dont think it would cope too well. Next time you're stockholm way, you're welcome to try
  22. Simmilar thing here mate, a trial weeker had been sold the petzl srt harness as it was the cheapest, no sliding bridge really hampered him
  23. Good to see you're having fun Matt, but i find it a tad backwards that you worry about lanes being closed, yet go inseek of 'challenging' lanes where you're anticipating to get a landy in mud terrains stuck, and been going fast enough to plaster youre landy in mud with clods by youre window. green laning is a nice steady amble through the countryside imo, otherwise the red sock brigade will have more ammunition for their war on green laners! Would be great to see pics of you're landy at a pay n play day
  24. the other day i speedlined the brash and some chogs out of a pine with a tag line, could have gone straight into a trailer, then for the stem, felled it up the bank, tied off a rope into an oak behind, down to the landing to a pulley at the base of a birch and onto the van, slackened the rope, put a sling and pulley on the tipp and but of each log and a tag line, drove the van foward, tensioning the line and lifting the log, slowly released the tag line (wrapped round a tree) sending the log down. unfortunatly last log was a bit big and ended up pulling the anchor tree out of its shallow rocky roots. massive forces involved but it did save us a hell of a lot of time and no doubt back ache we 5:1 or drag logs/trees/bundles of branches with pulleys, ropes, van setups all the time and deal with the stuff near as possible to the stack site/trailer/chipper to save handling
