  1. Little Thurlow by town and country.been in nearly a year and can warm the whole house and can take up to 320mm logs.
  2. +1 for prussick to get experience and confidence within the tree.I would recommend spider jack once you get all the basics.
  3. The house is literally just out of shot next to the road its my rubbish photography skills so do apologise.it is a nice tree would be a shame to lose it.
  4. I cant make my mind up on what to do with this ash.Its on my dads land but its near neighbours house the neighbour wants more light into his garden and dosent care what the tree looks like.My dad dosent want to lose the tree but wants something doing to it to keep the peace as they do a lot for them.i cant really reduce it as thers no sutible growth points as the neighbour wants 20ft of it.so I didnt know to either vetranise it pollard then repollard every 3-5 years or just fell and be done with it.
  5. Spiderjack and ropeguide as its similar to a hitch climber but has none of the bad bits of hitch climber
  6. Spiderjack with dynema sling thing with 11mm yale inferno and ropeguide.took me a good two weeks to get used to it tho but cant beat the reliability and the one handed slack tending and since ive been climbing with it I had no aces or pains but I still swap it for my hc on big dismantles once ive turned it into a stick.
  7. Yeh I was just using it maually as I was using it to film ski videos even with my ski gloves on it was easy to use as it makes a beep ing noise when it starts recording and beep noice when you stop it.in my own opinion the wifi remote is a bit of gimick so you spend more money and to change the settings its easy to do manually as the buttons sick out and even easier with the free app.
  8. Has any one tried the head strap and put it around your helmet Head Strap Mount + QuickClip - GoPro Official Store: Wearable Digital Cameras for Sports I thought you couldnt stick things to your helmet as it weakens it ?.another vote for the silver edition and download tge free app for your phone as you can watch videos straight away on your phone

    Go Pro

    Hi i recently got a Go pro hero 3 from misses clause just wondering what editing software people use as ive taken a couple of clips but they play back a bit choppy/jumpy but are fine when playing on youtube unedited or do i just need to get a new/decent laptop

    Gannoderma

    im afraid not but i did have look and there was only a thin strip of sound wood around the edge about inch all the way around diameter of the truck was about 2-3ft.There was a obvious compartmentalition line separating the thin strip of wood the remaining wood apperd to be white rot with cracks originating from the center. I was thinking that it was panic frucation the last tier but i wasn't sure if what this years growth ?

    Gannoderma

    Hi this was one of many call out that i had over the last couple of days is this gannoderma applamatum that helped the wind knock it over as a bacon and egg butty is on the line haaa
  15. got both 200 and 201 at work and i pick up the 201 every time as it feels more balanced and more ergonomic but the 201 did initially seem slightly slower to pick up revs but after it was run in it improved and now theres no difference but that my own opion
  16. hi, whats the new 201 like when compared to the old 200 cus im in need of a new saw but im not sure if i should risk buying the new cus i heard its lacking in power compared to the 200? Tar.
  17. im not sure realy:blushing: but im not sure to swap one to a whoppie sling as they seem easier to set up?
  18. i was thinking on the lines of ISC ISC medium cast pulley 16 mm 45meter marlow rope 2 steel beaners ISC large port a rap 2x 4.5 yale multi slings
  19. Depends how much the owner wants to spend, as you could reduce it back over many years but i doubt the cleint will want to pay loads tho.how far is the house away as thats is the deciding factor
  20. could possibly be panic frucation of the fungi on the beech as theres lots of crappy looking fruitng bodies which means theres little or no residule wood left
  21. I wanna make a distal for both my flipline and climbing line i recently bought a 3m 8mm marlow cord. so ias woundering what the best way to cut.Im only a noobie so i was thinking cut it in when its tentioned then use a lighter to seal it? tar
  22. 19 but im 20 in May:thumbdown:
