Mate, learn the basics first, if your a builder, and you can't use a trowel, and lay bricks you'll never build a house. Same applies to Arb and forestry, you have to learn the basics first, CS 30 and 31basic chainsaw work and felling, then move up to greater things. Good Luck in your quest in Forestry. -

I'm 56 this year and still find climbing a lot easier than dragging brush and pushing it through the chipper. That's any tree as the bigger they are the more of my weight they will take !!

If you are considering a splitter one with a hydraulic knife is so beneficial, especially if you are splitting tree waste of different sizes. I think it was 1k extra which is alot but saves so much time imo.

I bought a 16 ton petrol mobile log splitter from Riko last year, over a PTO model, as I can transport it to jobs quickly and it is very versatile, and doesnt tie up a tractor. Good customer service from Riko espescially chris Sheppard, although they do go to alot of shows. The machine is awesome, and I am very pleased, it will split up sections just over a meter long and up tp about a meter in diameter. I have been happily splitting hornbeam all winter.

yer 3 way crab, but I use a green colured one on the plastic end and a red coloured one on the grillion end. Just a little safety system for moi, I use it on my climbing line as well. Red never gets moved once attached, green is the one thats always unclipped.
