  1. Get a digger Johnny!
  2. I'm having a digger day thankfully! Hasn't stopped all night and still going strong !
  3. RIP!! Our Border is 12, strong but eyes and hearing going.
  4. Monsoon here!!hardly rains here so it's quite nice! I've 2 days digger work so all good
  5. I think the lorry is a shunter for when the Mog breaks down! Cracking pics fellas!
  6. Hi, I have a Pillenic back pack battery with lead to a very light weight top handle style saw.
  7. Great job!
  8. My battery pack saw has an automatic chain break, it's much safer and saves a lot of time in the tree.
  9. Longer jackets are better with a harness, just pull it up a bit to allow movement and there is no jacket wasteline and harness movement . Just don't pull it up too far as you won't see your side D's.
  10. Heartbreaking John! I found this pic the other day, I knew I had it. Steve climbing, Dave, Mark Bolam, Myself, John Shutler and the nose of Ian Leach. Jonesie's first show about 7-8 years ago I think.
  11. I took a deep breath before the camera showed the top of the tree. Just too big, simples. Glad everyone was ok
  12. You need a lighter chipper Jonny and some weight on the back
  13. Only ever used similar sized saws.
  14. Last time I tried I bet my 12 year old nephew. I'd say 3 min is good and go from there. Just had a chicken burger so won't be trying it soon.
  15. Nice job Beaver ! Nightmare Steve
  16. When I sold the chipper I opened it up and showed the guy what can happen.
  17. I had the exact same thing, the oil pan at the bottom caught all the bits so we just fished about and found the key, thing that goes over the cog and the bolt. 10 minute job once you find all the stuff.
  18. Didn't watch the video, get the mist it's about wearing another companies clothing! Cool, free clothes and a chance to blame someone else when re building a lap Larch fence.
  19. I've always been a die hard chain breaker! Also since my reduction is staff over the years I do all the chipping with a 26 parked beside me chattering around the ground. Thanks to Arbtalk I found out my stalling saws were the damaged bearing. I used to just buy new saws lol
