I work rights of way in hampshire We use one with a carving bar on, it comes in handy when doing bridge works. And for small trees or branches that come down .

I was told about this at college (to many years ago to mention) as a way of climbing conifers so yes you heard right, as you climb you go round the stem pulling your line with you.

There is no reason the bridge will need supports in middle the largest bridge we have done unsupported is 85 feet, made of larch poles cut from Wales and transported to Hampshire to span the river avon near ringwood. For A 30 foot bridge we would have a beam of at least 12 inch depth. 3 of them but that's just the specs for a bridge on a highway, we have to work to strict guidelines. We get our beams from sydenhams timber as they are stressed tested

Notice can be served under the highways act (154) for encroaching vegetation to be done within 14 to 28 days or the council can do it and bill landowner costs. Last year we were sent on course and we are supposed to check trees within falling distance of rights of way but this would be a full time job for a team of blokes just in the area I cover. It is a bit of a grey area and generally we just clear when the trees have fallen if we dont know who the landowners are

If it is a nice bit of fire wood and we can get our van right to it then we do it

I work for hampshire rights of way and From a rights of way point of view the liability lies with the owner of the tree, but if land owner can not be found then we would clear branch or tree and make safe and return the arisings off the footpath and back over fence:001_tt2:

Did mine last year got an old six by six oak post and used the Alaskan to face it up turned out pretty well. Then rubbed in some danish oil. All for the price of a tank of fuel and a morning in the garden. Mate I know bought one of e bay reclaimed and paid 350 for what in effect is something that looks the same

Had the t4 for work,four wheel drive version no complaints they upgraded to the t5 three years ago and this year alone it has been off the road for ten weeks with clutch problems, the diff lock not disengageing electrical burning coming from dash, the rear springs came off the axle mounts. So my experience with the t5 has not been good but would have a t4 any day
