Hi all I've recently been made redundent from my 3 day a week job, i was finding the other 2-3 days myself. I have been trying to find more work but i've come up with nothing. I've rang around loads of companies tried everyone i know, even the old builders i used to work for. If anyone on here knows of anyone around the eastmidlands who has even odd days here and there it would be much appreciated, as i would love to carry on working in this industry. But at the moment its looking like agency work multi drop delivery driving. I have my own ppe, climbing kit, lowering kit, saws and transport. I have cs 30,31,38,39,41,45 and first aid, and live in Nottingham. I funded myself through all my cs units so it's a waste to go doing van driving, but i've had no money for nearly 2 weeks, i've got 1 job tomorrow!. If anyone hears of anything my phone numbers 07917543637. Thanks Ben

well said mate i thought my kit was in very good condition:001_smile:

I do look after my kit and it seems more of a defect with the biners than how i've looked after them as there all pretty much new, and i was asking if anyone else had had problems with them thats all. I'll sort it tomorrow.

Whats the crack though if they've been taken taken out of service by a loler inspector. surely i couldn't reinstate them?

I've had my first loler inspection on my kit today as i bougth it all in june. It was all good except 4 of my 10 dmm karabiners failed 1 of which was 3 day's old its a ultra o, and apparently it failed the worst, all of them failed on dodgy gate's! there all triple action, 1x sentinal, 1x big boa ansi, 1x ultr o, 1x shadow. There all in good nick, not been hammered as i dont climb every day. I'll be phoning dmm on monday!!. Has anyone else had problem's with dmm karabiners on loler inspection's that have been so new?. cheers Ben
