  1. I really want to try a Spiderjack but i don't know anyone with one. And i don't fancy forking out for one to find its not for me. Anyone up for a fun climb and fancy letting me have a blast on there Spiderjack. Thanks, Jim
  2. I think its all sorted now assuming nothing falls through. Thanks very much to the members who offered they're help.
  3. Sorry , i wasn't very clear. Its free cord to anyone happy to collect.
  4. Just in the middle of doing a job for a customer. He will have a load of Popular and Pine i need shifting. Going to be approx 12-15 sticks in total varying between 30 - 50 ft in lengths. Would be a couple of timber trailer loads i would of thought. Let me know if you can help.

  9. Re-stitch it yourself or get it re-stitched by someone. That stitching is pretty knackered though and it would fail LOLER imo. But thats not to say its unsafe , the stitching doesn't add to the strength of the splice. But i would get it sorted for peace of mind.
  10. Ah ha ! That explains it. Pretty bloody big Maple.
  11. 118ft ? Is that big ? Theres a 160ft London Plane in School grounds at Blandford Forum , pretty sure thats one of, if not the biggest hardwood ?
  12. Considering buying a moisture tester for my logs , mainly because i'm intrigued. Was looking at spending around £20. Any recommendations ?
  13. Are you talking MAHOOSIVE self feed grab chipper or 12" feed PTO job ?
  14. What you need is thicker skin and calluses so thick you need to plane them off with a rasp.
  15. I found a Butt plug whilst doing some work for Sainsburys , ended up going through the chipper, and on another occasion found a dildo in a carrier bag !
  16. Good advice. Agreed. I had an early one to test to destruction for a couple of months , and have just recieved (only yesterday) the latest version for keeps. Its an awesome harness , personally i find it very comfortable for my body shape, 6'2" 85kg 32" waist if that helps? Otherwise known as a long streak of piss
  17. I'd say thats above and beyond complacency, but glad your ok and fair play for posting mate.
  18. 201T has superceded the 200T according to my local dealer , so be quick if you want a 200T.
  19. Any thing that reduces friction is genuinely useful imho i,e Cambium savers or pulleysavers. Also a single handed tending side/positional strop, something like a short tied Distel with a small pulley , the DMM pinto is excellent as its so much more than a pulley.
  20. Nice vid. Good ole' pop , will go any direction but the way you want it to go.
