  1. Can the positioned be used on srt
  2. I would say the multisaver has more uses, go for the longest tho
  3. I think “you can cut back to the boundary as long as it’s not detrimental to the tree” which in this case it would be
  4. I saw some today on some willows.....looks about the same stage
  5. Class 1 are normally only rated for small saws any saw bigger than a 201 and you should be wearing class 2. It’s all to do with chain speed as openspaceman said. Most people aren’t that fussy, but your insurance company might be if you cut your leg with a 660 in class 1
  6. Yes mate we did a few years on it for them, luckily got out before they closed up and not owed any money
  7. Umm, opinions are like arseholes................ most of them stink and we all have them
  8. I was given a pair years ago, think SIP made them
  9. Umm yes you do............. with a little fact thrown in once in a while
  10. This is true joe, as we found out on the last recci climb, trying to apply a dressing with one hand is difficult sat on the floor let alone 50 foot up with blood everywhere and adrenaline pumping though you
  11. Or being the passenger with you joe, that can be pretty hairy at times
  12. I think you will struggle with under planting with anything but more chestnut, horse chestnut have a chemical called aesculin in them which inhibits other species growing under them.
  13. Young oak, beech and hornbeam will/can retain their leaves because the abscission cells haven’t developed. When these sp have been trimmed as a hedge they have been kept in their “zone of juvenility” . This is how I understand it. Can anybody elaborate?
  14. Where have you got this information from? Have you a link or a reference that I can see? As “the zone of juvenility” is mentioned in the ISA cert arb study guide
  15. [emoji3] I take you carnt then treequip
  16. Am I the invisible man? Can anybody answer my question?
  17. Is it not to do with the zone of juvenility?
  18. When I started I was dragging for 18 months before we were allowed to even pick up a saw, my boss then paid for mine and another “brash rats” climbing tickets, from then on we both hassled him on nearly every job to let us climb. If you find that you aren’t progressing at a speed that you think you should be then it maybe time to look for another employer.
  19. That’s not like you joe (sulking or losing you temper)
  20. The trick there joe is to not climb conifers......
  21. Ok, does that mounting come in the box?
