  2. sorry sor, sorry. It'll not happen again (in faux irish accent, doffing imaginary cap
  3. Sawpod all the way.
  4. I kinda knew you were going to say that.
  5. Is that a BFG Trac-edge you are sporting on the bonnet? Great tyre in its day. They stopped production as they lasted for so long!
  6. I reckon he should have stuck to treework...
  7. NIce one Mike. Some big sticks there. What did it go for?
  8. Awesome Tony. Keep em coming.
  9. Thanks Steve.
  10. Treemeup- cant you find a sailmaker/ chandlery that does rigging and get a splice put in your rope....near me you can get it done for about £6 in any rope, they dont seem to worry. OK it wont have the correct markings for a LOLER, but thats a different story. If you are worried about that borrow a rope for a few days and send yours to the likes of Honey Brothers who, i think, can splice it and put the correct labeling on too.
  11. Thanks for all your help charlieh. Very kind mate.
  12. Cool. Not sure if its quite what i/ we are after. I am thinking of it with another chap and we are looking at the forwarding trailer that riko supply. It would be partenered with that if we go for it. Ill defo pass on the holder to him though. Cheers.

    todays job,

    Haha...where was it ady?
  14. I dont see the problem with screwing/ nailing into the timber. For those of you saying it is useable wood, then i think you are a bit mis-guided...the slabwood is waste anyway, as is poor quality and very sappy esp with oak.
  15. Couldnt agree more. I will sit in court arguing about the semantics of and definition of the word waste, and if the judge wants to consider something i have a use for as waste, then i will get a licence, and furthermore, if i get stopped and accused of carrying waste i wont back down untill i have been to court. All this claptrap in that EA PDF is irrelevant as it is drawn up by a bunch of civil SERVANTS in an office and has no bearing WHATSOEVER to the reality of guys like us in our daily work. I have a use for every single arising from tree surgery, so it is NOT waste. "Definition of Waste "Any substance or object the holder discards, intends to discard or is required to discard" Taken from the european Waste Framework Directive. The more we all panic and buy their bullsh it licences the more they wil create licences and fine-able offences.
  16. Why dont you go here:Mevagissey Model Railway | World of Model Railways | model railway and model shop

    todays job,

    Is that before or after.......
  19. The best tip and advice has been given mate. If you are in a position that you need tips and advice, then take simon (Big Boss Bechwood) up on his very kind offer and then you will be in a more realistic positon next time you get a crabne removal job. Going in blind on a crane job usually ends in pain.
  20. RC2000 and some string....I already had the 390 lol
  21. I thought our rope was classed as static?
  22. Me too....got the rest of my new lowering kit....I ordered it on tuesday afternoon, and it was delivered to where i was working on wednesday mid morning........and you can see a bit of it if you look at my new avatar closely.
  23. Oh yeah....Radmore and tucker. They and the tavistock boys are both a fair distance away....hour or so. You couuld order some kit and pick it up from me if you like. I am based in redruth.
