It's also mine James. -

I nailed the access bit pretty quickly, but it was a gradual transition to SRT working the tree. Most of my work is takedowns on spikes, although I can run my CT ascender and HAAS with spikes no worries. I really need to have a proper look at redirects, and I think that's best done on my own time, rather than in front of yawning groundies or frowning people who are paying me money. -
What is the hairy pie cut?

Here you go fellas. Hole is 9mm.

Jesus. Glad you're all ok Reg. Fair play Kyle!

Cheapo doorway chin-up bar and gravity boots are cheaper and take up less space!

I'll do an arthroscopy lunge in a couple of weeks just for you mate!
-
Probably at the start of this thread Paul, I'd probably rupture something if I tried one now!

Sorry for the derail everyone.

😂👍😂👍😂

I'm glad someone mentioned sharp chain James.

Will that be ok with a bit of mulching do you reckon?

I've done a couple, one in Stoke Newington pollarding 90' limes. 3x normal rate, and that wasn't enough.

It is miles better Will, but it won't fit straight out of the box. I just drilled a hole in the collar to correspond with the pop-up stud in the top pole section. I'll get a pic if you want. 18 months or so in and it's still earning it's keep.

That's pretty jaw-dropping work Reg. Not getting the credit it deserves on here IMO, although I know that's not your bag. Pisses me off a bit that the 'what chainsaw trousers are best to do a wet fart in?' type threads seem to get more response. Keep them coming, it is appreciated. What spikes are you on mate?
-
Haha! What knee issue did you have mate? I've got an op booked in 2 weeks.
-
I did Ty. That's why we've had a change of government since.
-
I got one off MattyF mate, far better, although I had to bastardise it a bit with a drill. Think it's a Sandvik, although Matty will confirm.

Cracking dogs lads. Must be a great feeling giving a dog like that a second chance Rob.

😀😀😀😀😀

As refreshing as Stella?
-
That rsj leaves a tidy finish!
-
We have the lighter 2001. Reg got it spot on. You know it's idiot-proof if a climber can use it.
-
Isn't it?!!! Would love to have seen that.
