  5. Woo whooo, join the club. I spent two hours this afternoon re doing all the spade conector, checking the wires etc. Only to find out by a process of elimination that it was a slighty corroded negative terminal. Hairy buttocks
  6. From what i remember, shake is generated by: Soil and growing conditions Genetics (some trees are naturally more prone) Some shake is generated from the shear plane that allows the tree to flex without snapping. There is a couple of other reasons but my brain is mush at the moment.
  7. You can put the mouths of this cut in from behind leaning against the trunk
  8. Get on, get in. Enjoy cursing every stuck trunk.
  9. That be a very shiney chipper, how long will that last ? One or two hours ?
  10. Evening Jon, i got all my chokers from speedy hire. They were one that could no long be used for lifting due to a change in the lifting regs. I got six chains and hooks for £20. Might be worth seeing if you have a local Speedy hire.
  11. £10
  12. Your toys are getting bigger. Good work.
  13. This might help : http://arbtalk.co.uk/forum/climbers-talk/30955-un-official-harkie-harness-review.html

  15. The large limb growing out over the litch gate. Points to be aware of: Tree has a TPO The tree has historical importance The litch gate under the large limb is 11th century Any thoughts helpful or not appreciated
  16. Yer darn toting right.
  17. Yes first wood is done, but you are going to have to wait until the fields have dried out before i start forwarding out. Will let you know.
  18. It is not as quick as the fancy bench ones, but when one is in the woods and some hidden barb decides to wreck ones chain. One can resharpen in under five minutes. Win win :thumbup:
  19. Yes i do to. I use two trailers depending on whats involved. 90 is much more manoverable than a 110.
  20. The fact that you can not really see it, shows that it has been done well.
  21. Hindsite truly is a wonderous gift.
  22. The 12v one that Rob does on the alaskan site is brilliant. Easy to use, and consistant results. alaskan mill I home of the portable chainsaw mill
  23. Are you sure that you have enough bikes Tim ?
  24. I have now switch to the slow form of yoga (can't remember the name). Each movement takes 20-30 minutes. The hardest thing i find is switching my pesky brain off. i find it a makes a good opposite to the hetic fun of felling and climbing. It also stops my back from locking up too.
