Ed just make sure the slings are strong enough, sounds like you are thinking too much about it with only theory behind your thoughts. Boss man has his own company for a reason.

as long as its tight you are good to go, ive never lost a bit. personally if its not big enough to warrant a sling, i cut n chuck it onto a brash mat or dumpy bag full of stuff. When it comes down to it, you are incharge of what you cut off the tree as a climber, if you are not happy with what is provided then discuss with the boss and take it from there. If you have never done it with slings then you need to try it so you have a valid arguement.

slings all the way, forget all your bend radius theories, its a time thing , they are quick and simple to use and slings are a lot tougher and last longer, they can take a good amount of abuse aswell.

no need, he has 1 and is only 45 minutes from me:thumbup1: I do fancy a forwarder though:biggrin:

I had to google that big word, the owner isnt big headed or niether does he need to exagerate. He is very humble even when there are 9 tree guys praising his machine. If the 30ton isnt the correct weight then i must of picked him up wrong.

i asked the guy how much it weighed, he said 30 ton.

So far there's only 1 in the country as far as the owner knows. She weighs 30 ton, 300 hp, 30 ton winch, 2 top smaller winches on boom, It was chosen because it's the only thing that can shift the big stuff. It's not my job I'm just subbying.
