  6. Absolutely awesome mate, I'd be well up for smashing that tree about, looks like you ruined that job!!
  7. They are extremely comfortable and I would thoroughly reccomend them, they are called (the Common Sense, Allertness, and Brains Mach1) and they are manufactured by a company called Experience and Old School, the only thing is they are getting harder and harder to get hold of, apparently some were stolen and destroyed by a load of clever people with uni degrees, fluorescent jackets, and clipboards, only trouble was that they didn't understand how or why they worked cause they had never used them, however if you want one pm me, cause I have a little stash tucked away.........
  8. went to London yesterday and took down this poplar stem for another tree firm, some1 had already climbed it and got the brash off, all we had to do was get it on the floor, it looked small but there was loads of timber in it, quite a small drop zone too

  10. You haven't bought saws nath, you've bought toys. Give us a list of those 9 saws or are u too embarrassed?
  11. forget about the tree work, American's are awesome......... "No chap's again guys" "I don't care the trees on the ground" "I want you to say hi to Dave" p.s. (Hi Dave) Dadio, I wouldn't use most of your tecniques, not because of my inferior i.q. , just because I think mine work better for me...... that said I do find your videos entertaining and they do bring a smile to my face

  13. Fair enough, each to there own, the last time I used one was on my chainsaw in a tree assessment :-)
  14. Very good post, apart from the tape sling bit
  15. Maybe, but they are the physical entombment of slowness, extra effort, and bordom, all squeezed into a handsaws.
  16. Doing a crown reduction, but a heavy one. So I couldn't really chose the best growth points as she wanted as much off as poss. In fact when I'd finished she wanted another 3 ft off, which I wouldn't do. Anyway ur not suggesting that it could be taken down with a silky are u?
  17. i have a 201, it sits in the workshop gathering dust, stick with what u know
  18. is this an acceptable work position, thoughts plz
  19. i hope that when you smoke you are a safe distance away from any source of ignition, i.e. the combi can you have just used to fill the saw up:lol:
  20. yes it is, if a climber sues their employer for failing to provide correct PPE, the employer wouldn't have a leg to stand on
