That's brilliant!!

Hiab them out in big bundles, you just need a 40 ft Hiab and a long rope, chain, lift it straight up and the branches will come right in, no need to boom in or out. Or Tracked chipper, chip into bulk bags and drab out with chipper, best get a safetrak as they have loads of grunt and brilliant clearance. Or take a digger down, dig a big hole and bury the branches and dress off with all your spare soil. Or just drag them out, get your head down and blitz if, coffee and cakes for good boys who don't complain about it. Digger with grab, pass it out in a few passes.

I've had a swivel on my sequoia for about 4 years, I wouldn't go back . I climb on a prussik so no problems with twisting like Rich said about VT. I've just picked up another 1, so ill be sticking that on so I've 2 on there. Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk

I wonder if the guys who pick up the litter after a football match moan about how much David Beckham gets paid and why isn't he helping with the bags of rubbish:001_rolleyes:

Gutting Geoff!! Hope insurance pay out soon

Jonny I've had my Ldv for nearly 4 years now, she's a battlebus! She was parked up for 3 months , stuck the leads on her, and she hadn't missed a beat since. They are not as comfy or fast as the newer transits, for the money you can't go wrong imo Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk

Do you mean Utube?

Please find time to make a video of it in action!!

And where would you buy such a thing?

Mark, I'm not bothered about what the guys with go pros use to climb, I do my own thing, it works, it's always worked and I'm good at it. I've tried the others, I persivered , I didn't like, I went to what I know. Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk

It started as a baby, I would touch things, bite things and fall about a lot. As time went on , I didn't fall or bite as much. I remember trying to tow my mate on his grifter and me on my go cart with my mums washing line, it broke, so we doubled it up, it broke again, so we quadrupled it, it broke so we stole my dads duct tape and wrapped it in that, it never broke but my wee legs weren't powerfully enough to tow that bad bit bike, and it was stuck in 3rd and mate couldn't pedal it. Then I had a goat, and I'd take it walks up the hill, and then 1 day I crossed a burn and it wouldn't budge, stubborn was my Snowy! So after a lot of pushing and shoving, goat still wouldn't budge. So I walked back as far as I could, the rope was about 30ft long, and I gave it a good pull, hey presto goat over water. Then it was rope swings, flymoing big bankings, towing broken down Xr2's out of ditched, then it was trees out of burns with tractors and chains . Then 1 day I tried climbing, I looked at this little looped chord , stuck my foot in it and pulled the other end, and thought, that'll do:) Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk

Mark, 1 word for you. Nonesense! Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk

Where do you get these bohemith machines?? You've got to show us that thing in action:thumbup1:

Congratulations:thumbup1:

Mine wasn't slow motion from 3 m:laugh1:

Not part of the assessment, as for pre tied, look at your kit, check it and trust or bin it:001_smile: I've never had any problems with Prussik loops, pre tied or self made. Now VT, that's a different kettle of fish:laugh1:

What a cool bike!!! Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk

Go to the coup and get a dozen old mattresses and make a baracade! It's Rothesay, punt it down the hill Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk

Nice Enduro Dan, what kind is it?

That's nothing Old Mill! This morning at breakfast time in the cafe, when my French toast with cinnamon sprinkle stuff arrived with my cappuccino, the maple syrup was barely covering the bottom of the bottle! I got 1 piece moderately covered and the other got a little puddle in the middle! Not good, not good at all:001_rolleyes:

Have you put an ad on Arbtrader?

Wait till you get an XBox! With my 2 it was In the Night Garden, it got them sat still from 6.15pm to 6.45pm, finished with a bedtime story and a wee sing song before carrying them up the stairs yawning!

I never noticed your location! I've done a fair bit of work on Bute over the years, some cracking big trees. Next time your over look us up for a coffee:thumbup1:
