I'm in mate. I'll be the chubby one with tattoos that pretends hes in his 20s when he's clearly nearly 40

Clogger Zeros Best trousers I've ever had.

Good to see you again. Tim. Hope you're well -
This is brilliant jrnR8aQ.mp4

I do similar. I know to stay out of COVID or politics threads as thats where the biggest whoppers tend to congregate. Its a problem when threads get taken over and its just completely irrelevant ramblings on every thread. It gets old quickly
-
Completely oblivious to it as well. Maybe time for a clean out
-
Shame really as the vast majority of members on here are spot on. Its just the few strokers who appear in every thread and chat absolute rubbish. I think Lockdown has effected more than one or two and tensions are getting a bit frayed.

WIth the Chainsaw courses, if you do the next course up, it automatically refreshes the one below it. (eg, doing the Felling up to 380mm refreshes the Crosscutting and maintenance, doing the Felling over 380mm refreshes the Felling up to 380mm and so on and so on)
-
But its a different course if its an extra day then isnt it? Or am I missing something Can you upskill like City and Guilds allows?

The cover and the core dont get zeroed out properly meaning there is movement between the cover and core. Normally this just means once you've climbed on it a couple of times the cover extends a little bit and the core sucks up. You just cut it off though. If its spliced both ends, there is nowhere to go. Remember though, if you've got a splice each end, you won't be able to use a Zigzag. Plus, and this is my personal pet hate, companies will splice the rope then put the ID shrink wrap on the end and you need to cut it off to put a Mechanical on.
-
Be aware of the ropes characteristics as some can milk quite a bit. If you've spliced both ends, there is nowhere to go. Also a nightmare if you're using mechanicals

Welcome to the forum! I'm guessing you would want it as forest ground specimen? What is the purpose of collecting the data?
-
Thats a shame. If anyone is interested I will put on a Zoom call that weekend. If everyone thats upset they're going to miss the APF wants to show up in their Chainsaw trousers and a vest with wellies or Rigger boots then we can all have a virtual meet up. If we want to go for full authentic feel, get some cans in and see if some local youths wouldn't mind smoking a few joints in your garden then nicking some stuff out your shed before you sleep in a leaking tent in the garden.

Good luck with it mate. If people want to stop drinking I'm happy for them to transfer all their spare cash to me and I'll use it to fund my coffee and tattoo habits. Win win
-
I've not drunk alcohol since 2014 now. Don't miss it. There are better things to waste your money on imo
-
My garden never looked better last year, did lots of decorating that we never got round to. Spring and Summer were great, cooking barbeques with my girls every night. Bought a bike and was able to go out and do some miles on that. Cant wait for warmer weather again
-
To the guy who is on £384 a day. What kit are you bringing for that? Is that just climber, saws and rigging kit?

What's the correct method to take this hung tree down?

Because you're underneath the hanger -
What's the correct method to take this hung tree down?
Tommy_B replied to Unframed Dave's question in Homeowners Tree Advice Forum
Backwards. Away from the tree its resting on. If you don't have a winch, sever the bottom and get a pole and lever it back -
Whoever installed the cambium saver put the rings the wrong way round. It won't pull out normally so they would have to climb back up to get it out

I don't know, it seems to have interested a couple of you!!
