I once saw a thread on another site by a bloke who chose to climb on 4 lines at once...must of being like climbing through spaghetti
-
The firm clearly are if they MAKE you climb on 2 main lines and second attachment point in all trees. Each to their own, different situations require different methods, should be down to the individual to decide on the method he needs to employ in the situation he is in. Why make things complicated

Easiest quickest way just use other end like you are doing, keep a Prussic on your harness if you know you will be walking out a lot. If it shortens your rope to much then u gotta put another line in, I use a grigri as my second attachment point but wth a long rope "just coil" the other end up if I need to create a better position I uncoil it and move it to bridge on meh harness. Quicker than sending another rope up and easier than carrying a second

EU court rules fatness now officially a disability
simonm replied to Wood wasp's topic in General chat
What a joke, I agree some people physically cannot help being over weight so it's unfair to treat them unfairly. However the majority of fat buggers are that way on through over eating, eating shite and being bone idle! Just another case of people using the "discrimination" card to benefit themselves. I worked for the la a few years ago and 1 of the blokes there was so fat he couldn't get a strimer harness to fit, couldn't get on a ride on mower, couldn't litter pick so ended up driving the van to site then sitting there while everyone else did his job for him! Still see him coming out the chineese I a sat night with a huge box full of crap! Worlds gone daft. -
I'm with you, so on for example branch walk you use both ends.

What is the criteria "if any" you need to meet with regards to buying/storing fuel? is their a big difference between pump price and buying in bulk? trying to reduce fuel costs.

Any problems with M-tronic
-
Already got a 660 and a 341 so want something to bridge the gap 25" bar or slightly bigger
-
What are they like? got a 660 but its a bit too big to hump around unless were doing something huge. A little unsure of this m-tronic thing looks like something else to go wrong
