I had my CS39 assessment today, it was snowing all day and flippin' freezing. Glad I passed, now hopefully I can earn some money whilst freezing my pistachios off!

Thanks all. Feels great, 39 to go on Thursday. Did the branch walks on a big horse chestnut, it was snowing whilst I was doing this. It was actually quite nice climbing in the snow, I know that sounds weird.

Those are some awesome trees. Just thought I'd say that. -
Well said.

Sorry to hear that mate. I think your rate sounded fair. I've had problems in the past trying to give a fair price yet still earn a living. Times are hard.

The first chainsaw was invented by Andreas Stihl in 1926, but the first ever chainsaw that could be operated by a single person was developed in 1950. Good ol' Stihl.

Have you tried the SealSkinz ultra grip gloves? They'd keep your hands dry but not sure about the grip. I use the Towa powergrab thermo ones, keep my hands toasty but the grip goes downhill when wet.

I will Andy.

Hi Andy. I'm based in Ipswich, but have full clean license and will travel.

I'm doing my CS38 training now, and we have to either do a 2-man or a 3-man pole rescue. For the 3 man, we are using a whoopie sling and a figure 8 device with a friction hitch failsafe.

Hi everyone. Thought I'd put the feelers out early. I'm on a 10 week tree surgery course at Otley, will be finishing in December. Recently passed CS30 + 31, and hopefully will add 38 + 39 to that in a few weeks. Also have First aid cert. If anyone wants a helping hand at weekends with their work, I'm a hard grafter and need some real experience in arb. At present I have all my own PPE, but no saws or equipment. I will be planning to purchase these when I can/when the missus lets me! Many thanks Neil

I had fun slipping and sliding all over a horse chestnut, was a bit windy too... wasn't getting paid though!

Thanks to all. Am loving the climbing training, hard work on the forearms, and the limb walking was a bit iffy in the wet today!
-
Cheers matey.

Cheers Max. I know that on some courses they've done them all on one day, but for some reason, me and me course buddies are all on Friday.
