I've used both, and the timberland fingerless gloves lasted much longer. i think that they do reduce the amount of vibration because when my dog decided to eat one for his lunch, and i had the rest of the afternoon with only one glove, and i could feel the difference.

Get the biggest heavyest lathe that you can afford. Small lathes are good but you quickly want to turn bigger items which becomes increasingly difficult. Most woods can be turned green, you just have slow the drying out process. Burying it in the shaving from the bowl works well. Or make the sides thin enough to flex in the drying process. However when you make the sides too thin the bowl goes bang very suddenly !!! Happy turning Slack ma girdle I can spot a tree from 100 yards

If you foot lock the slack through, it almost becomes self tending. Or If you like toys then a panten strapped to your foot. Of if you want one handed self tending, then put the trailing rope through a pully near your top anchor, and then back to you. This makes branch walking easier, particularly when dismantling Slack ma girdle I can spot a tree at 100 yards

Antidote to the Tree fellers lust
slack ma girdle replied to David Humphries's topic in Tree health care
If the tree is in an isolated spot why go to the trouble of carrying out the work, why not let it just do its thing ? Slack ma girdle i can spot a tree from 100 yards -
Having Watched Chris Beardshaw cut the old yews at Aberglasney to about 2' high, i tried the same for an old customer. It died !! However i tried the same a couple of years later, and it has grown back beautifully. I would take some cuttings before you start, at least you will have some backup. Good luck Slack ma girdle I can spot a tree from 100 yards

All trees dies, and if the tree is 200+ years old, then it has had a good innings. Apple trees are not long lived. However some pruning might help to breath some new life into the tree. But if the tree has not been pruned for a long time, and you are too heavy with the pruning the resulting regrowth can be too much for the tree to sustain. Little and often over the next 3-4 years should help, and will not encourage too much vigourous re growth. If all else fails find someone in your local area to take some grafts next winter, so that when the tree dies,it will still live on. Also do you know what variety it is? there could be some interest if it is an unusual variety Happy pruning Slack ma girdle I can spot a tree from 100 yards!!

Practice on a small tree, so that height is not an issue. Ditch your main anchor, and use two short rope of about 25'. the main anchor becomes a hinderance when you are working above it. With practice and more importantly confedence you should be able to use anchors of about 1 1/2" in diameter. The key is to keeping equal weight spread across the anchors. This mostly works for me as a fifteen stone climber!! However once i get above 70' the anchor points drop to around 3", and the rods and saw head come out
