    Hi guys. I am posting on behalf of Rowan the Bruce, as he is having computer problems. The question is does anyone have or know where can be obtained, a four foot long, approx 3/4" diameter auger bit. He needs to drill through a large split in a mature tulip tree which he has already cobra braced, in order to brace the split together with a rod. He is having probs finding a supplier. Any ideas?

    That is superb, both in its craftsmanship and the purpose. Top job.

    I am pretty sure that if you earn money or use a chainsaw in this country for work- even a farmer trimming a field hedge, you are required by law to have a level of basic training such as the 2 day LANTRA course. I am going to try and check on that.

    I agree with Dave (skyhuck).....I consider myself a pretty 'average' climber, but am told by some guys i work with that i am ok. My self confidence is very low though......However it could be the other way tound- I COULD think myself the best climber in the world and yet be useless.....so I'm giving myself 10 points.......out of 1000!!!:laugh1:

    My labs are, unbelievably, amazing ratter....they end up having a tug of war with them. Brilliant.

    Yeah it is very deep. Even where i was working the channel is over 20m at low tide!!! The winch is crushingly dull TBH.....at least i think so. Before i had one i used to think it was the best bit of kit ever....the more i use them the more i hate them.....i think i need a helicopter- is that the fastest way of getting timber out? Its all about speed for me- and winching myself out of a stimking boggy mess is too slow by far.....in fact winching timber with the landy is too slow really. I needed a proper winch on that job, but the franchguard i usually stick on a tractor wasnt even an option...clients orders.
