    good job that, i saw on your videos your letting the lumps swing half way round the tree. just wondered how you were getting the line back since you havent got a floating pulley or anything that i saw, just tieing it on end of your rope or groundie swinging it back to you?

    i can feel the pain just looking at it. hope you havent got to chip it all horrible stuff to chip all kinds of weird and wonderful shapes some of that stuff normally.

    why not just use spikes be quicker than building a platform and sticking a ladder up it.

    i would say 40quid a day is more than enough for a placement maybe not useing your own fuel and oil is abit cheeky, but like all others have said just head down and show them what you can do. i started on 20quid a day when i had a placement 4 years ago, just got to bite the bullet and enjoy it best of luck.

    well that was what im going on since it was posted about the pics of chocking down of a short ash stem.
  17. testcricket01
    haha quality music
  18. testcricket01
    cause usally when your lowering your doing so to protect whats under it, so it gets to a point where your chocking down and you might aswell not lower it cause its going hit deck before ropes catch it. you will get to that point sooner with useing slings, like i said with the not getting it perfect length slings, useing rope takes the maximum amount of slack out the system.

    be alot of messing about with the timber trying get the perfect length sling though, if its slightly to long your going to make the peice fall that extra bit.

    we wanted get the landy in there and chip it while we go but guy who owns it said he will burn it all so we are just cutting it up small and stacking it nd stacking timber should keep there wood burners going for a while to come
