  2. lol i did hear an ausie while i was in jonesies stand ha ha
  3. i drove up from penance in cornwall , not sure how many miles that is , where the fook did you drive from ?? seem like you have won before it got started mate
  4. mind you i did see a chap a few days ago using an orange saw labled chain saw , i asked what it was and how much he paid , he said it was a husky second and he paid £65 for it brand new from e bay
  5. yeah i gave them a shout but they could not be to sure when they could pick it up but its ok as the yha will have alot of it for the camp fires and the rest will go back to my yard and get mixed in with the rest of the logs (if a ever can be botherd to do any lol )
  6. i know with miller/ commet they are not using lock tight when manufactured and when you replace the bridge or attachment ring your told to use lock tight when doing the shackles up . (but no torque setting) lol
  7. or you can go for the eco friendly McCulloch with a much faster cut and much much less noise AKA the bow saw ha ha ha
  8. nope no press and no fuss lol , sadly we did not keep track of the ammount of timber . the youth hostel have now said for some reason that they want the main trunk left standing so the decent planking timber is going to be left standing which is a shame but also is great as we dont have to deal with it
  9. oh right do you work for your self or someone elts ? i used to work for the well known arb agency for my sinns ha ha oh and lived in the amaing town of teignmouth (not)
  10. where you based to gibbon ?? tbh the tree was a bit over whelming when your used to most of your work being no bigger than 80 ft , and the cannopy was vast lol but still good fun
  11. ha ha good points chaps !!!
  12. true but its probably the only tree that sie that i will get to work on for a verry long time . as for the pics im just waiting to get them from the groundie .
  13. i had the same issue with haix boots , i guess its just luck of the draw lets be honest chainsaw boots have come on a hell of allot sice the old brown stihl loggers boots .
  14. thanks chaps , looks like its lock jack and foot ascender , i may look int the srt system at some point . i think one at the top i would still change over to lock jack and friction saver so would end up carrying even more kit imo
  15. great job mate , sadly we dont get many like that down here in cornwall
  16. i was impressed by the rope walker system , i am thinking of looking into using a foot ascender and hand ascender with a lock jack , with a bit of luck it will work in much the same way . anyone tried it before ??
  17. yeah sounds like a good idea andy , any way there is always jonesie's show to meet up . where abouts is it being held ??
  18. i meant a propper effort josharb i met andy who then pointed out some of you chaps to me but how about advretising AT more and getting more guys from the trade on here ???
  19. what were your thoughts on the srt system that tree worker were demonstrating bob ???? the guy semed to have alot of kit hanging from his harness i personally could not see it being practical having all that getting in the way
  20. good call khriss !!!! as long as he offers it to AT members at a redued price first
  21. im with john and andy on this one , i drove up from cornwall yesterday , i didnt go to any of the workshops such as the AAAC aplication workshop because i only had a limited amount of time , next year a wanna camp up there and have plenty of time . also i keep reading that alot of people never got time to meet up with each other from AT so why not next year can we not get a stand sorted maybe reight next to jonesie's ??? or an AT camping area ???
  22. i went up looking for lots of kit but ended going home with £1500 left to spend !! was god to see a few of you but wish i had more time to chat . where is jonesie's arb show too ??? oh and didnt bump into SWB yesterday i guess he was still nursing a hang over ha ha
  23. one of my chaps bought a pair 4 months ago , they have split , a few of the laicing eyelets have come of and the sole has just started to come away from the boot , i would expect this from someone wearing them 6 days a week but he has only been wearing them 3 days a week as he was at college . thankfully he has seen sence and gone for the mendel airstreams
  24. congrats mate hope your all good and well
