[ame] [/ame] A quick video of my colleague and I playing with the Dmm captain. Enjoy

It's a GRCS type device for the winching up of the limbs. My colleague wants to stay anonymous hence why I posted it on his behalf. I'm glad you've found it interesting to watch. I'll pass on your feed back to him.

Video of a colleague doing some nice rigging. Thought it might be worth a watch

Done. I've been saying this for years. Hopefully it gets things sorted -
<p>What part of Bristol? I'm based in Gloucester but will travel down as my brother lives in Brislington.</p>

It's due to the fact that it is under a three way load. Ie. the harness pulling left and right on the triangles and then you clip a krab to the mallion to anchor to. If you use to main lines you should have to mall ions or you'll be four way loading it. A krab should only be loaded two way. Hope this makes sense.

Quite an accurate portrait of wasps

It does self tend fine but there feels like a bit of resistance on the bottom link when using a pantin for some reason.

In response to t14ees-t14unk the way to take apart the hc: you need to centre punch and drill out the riveted ends of the spindle, it's tricky and dont go too deep as you can re use both ends of the spindle for top hat shaped spacers. A small metal work lathe is handy for drilling the 5mm central hole, but not essential. A couple of m5 penny washers filed thinner to act as shims either side of the zz components will offer support for side ways movement. The main spindle is then replaced with a high tensile m5 collard bolt (only thread on the last portion of bolt). I may put a suitable size bolt through the spare hole in the hc to keep the side plates from moving. This is for educational purposes only.

Exactly Rupe, if friction rope self tended as well as a zz, no one would of bought a zz. Not at £178. As you say depending on the loler inspector and their interpretation of the rules it could pass as even friction cord only has to be 'fit for purpose intended'. If that config was tested then and it gripped reliably then there would be no cause to fail it. And yes as you say how many modded zz are out there that will never see a loler inspection. I put a dyneema sling choked on to the top point for a while so there was never going to be an issue with cross loading.

Friction rope won't self tend. Also why would it not loler? What you clip too is ce rated and the hitch is fit for purpose= pass
-
This works well. Just need to put a better spindle bolt in.

Is the splice on your e2e rated!

Will work fine but risk getting over excited and launching the throw weight into orbit!

Dowlings outdoor sports on eBay. I bought one a couple of weeks ago. Awesome bit of kit. Works best on a 6ft and 4ft Jameson pole for max range.

We were cutting ash at about 10inch diametre in the test.

I was lucky enough to have both the battery and the petrol one on demo for a day the other week. Both great saws The battery one was weird to use but could be good on the right job. The t540 14inch bar was awesome felt good in the hand and we raced it against a 201 t 12 inch bar I've had since January and the husky was a couple of seconds quicker. I've been told feb as well for the release.

Was just looking at this video Explore the new Husqvarna 560 XP® Just after the tree hits the floor (about half way through the video). Is it just me or does a bat fly out towards the camera!!!!!

http://www.arboristsite.com/chainsaw/185736.htm Also I heard the jungle drums beating and the word is a July release date for the t540. I'm not going to place any bets though.

Own a 200t and have done for many years. My local shop still has a handful of them as well but after much thought went for a 201t. Dont regret the decision at all especially as Ive read a thread from an american site on how to mod the muffler to get more power. The link to the site is on here somewhere.

It takes a certain set of skills, that take years to master........ there is a slight ditch but the photo does not do it justice!

What is the difference in running a 6 toothed sprocket or a 7 toothed sprocket on a ms 200t?
-
I work on it being roughly 1.5 ton for 4 cubic meters.
