  1. I anchor into the highest point of the tree, that I feel will enable me to reach every part of the tree without my anchor point coming to join me (if that makes sense).
  2. Thought alot. Infact, never stop thinking. Building an empire is the goal.
  3. Best result I ever had from ebay was a 2nd chance buy after winner didnt pay. It was a Stihl BG86 leafblower and including posting cost me a measly £36. 4 years on and its still going strong everyday. That was a glod result. Haha.
  4. Id definately have a go at that. Capel is more like a family atmosphere anyway. Can we borrow gear there??
  5. Edit. I meant Gollum, not Gibbon. Haha. Sorry
  6. It says under his name "location -middle earth, Kent":confused1:
  7. kent aint that big a county bud???
  8. Good attitude, let Gibbon come and have a look for you mate.
  9. Nice to have 3 ms200t's at your disposal with 12",14" and 16" bars on.
  10. 100% No-one wants to slip out and face plant in front of loads of people.
  11. That Ivy is gonna take over. haha
  12. Seriously though, I would love to have a go but dont come across solid 90foot poles with belay attachments that dont have 200 people watching very often.
  13. Id like to try it but im scared of heights and wood and sharp metal things. Will I be able to do it ?
  14. Better the devil you know mate. There are loads of alternatives, with hundreds of different reasons why, but if you have used it before and can do your job well with it then get some more. Should be fairly similarly priced at all major dealers. If you really wany a change then try and get to one of the arb shows this year and try some others.
  15. Depending on knot, Ive found beeline to work with any rope. As for fire, its similar to all Yale xtc ropes so Beeline should grab it with ease.
  16. You mean Heli-loggers??
  17. Working vs lazing around in the beer garden??
  18. I would be more than willing to test.
  19. Thats exactly what I mean. Yeah. Looks a neat setup. Mr Hammel knows his stuff. Gonna get a few bits and have some play days now the sun has got his hat on.
  20. Have a siesta. Works for the spanish. Haha
  21. Its a little bit smaller alround now mate. hahaha Got to finish off 2moro. Getting tops down through stuff you are trying to retain without smashing off growth points is a right PITA In those pics, around 15ft had come off that side.
  22. another day, another Beech reduction. There should be more pics, but my memory card is playing up. I will have a go 2moro, when Im not so tired.
