  2. Looks like a good saturday job John! nice one.
  3. This is an old one but still makes me laugh.. [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7oCDcTxFUkk]YouTube - James the narcoleptic tree cutter[/ame]
  4. Yeah I doubt that is real.... but still pretty sick!
  5. I never get tired of watching all those videos... there's some really stupid thigs up on youtube, but some of the tree ones make you cringe.
  6. And the third... A good fun job on a commercial contract.
  7. Second pic... A sunset view taken from up a big caledonian pine..
  8. I know... whats that all about??
  9. Is this a record?? What a plonker...he runs out of the way pretty quick! hehe [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2YAf61zz5VU]YouTube - Falling a tree gone wrong (Barber chair)[/ame]
  10. ''This years AA Show was another roaring success''
  11. Ok, here's my three.. the first two are views taken whilst up trees, the third is a dismantle and take down.
  12. hehe, you could fell that thing and sell it as a security barrier!!
  13. Have a good one mate!
  14. Bob - what do you charge for private assessments?? ie, not through a training company..
  15. lack of water possibly...
  16. Wow - nice shots.. Just goes to show you, you need to know what you're doing with cranes. Any idea how much damage was done to the property?? Will be a nice insurance claim i'm sure. Glad to hear everyone waled away ok, could have been much much worse.
  17. Just wondering, how come you used the landy to pull it over?? I would have wedged it over personally, especially if it had alot of deadwood in the crown, always a favourite for shattering everywhere.
  18. Fair one Kevin! How much does a trainer earn a day?? Seems like most courses are around the £100 per person mark for training
  19. If you want a decent knapsack, that works well and will stand the test of time, with regular usage in a professional capacity you need either a Berthoud, a Solo or a Coupar Pegler - Have used all the cheap ones and they break.. Out of the lot of them I have settled with the Berthoud..... you just won't go wrong with them.
  20. Is that what they call fracture pruning??!!
  21. Dean - I've been using the Berthoud for our commercial spraying contracts, weevil and weeding and have had no problems with them..... and very comfortable too! The lance is extendable which saves even more on your back and you get a good range of nozzles for different applications. The handle can be used on either side and is easy to put in an upright position for transport and the frame the tank sits in stops it from tipping over when filling - great knapsack!!
  22. lol!!
  23. That's the impression I got as well, but..I wonder how that equates to RRV equipment.. as in mogs on the railway. They go on the road and on the rail, all on red..
  24. Filthy horny catholic girls??
