Been climbing on the T. rex for around 3 months now. On the whole I like it, find it comfy with attachment points well placed. I tend to use only one of the bridges and think it’s a bit gimmicky to be honest having the adjustable one. 
the 2 things that I don’t like are the bloody fiddly buckles that are still a pain to get off, and I find when I’ve got a saw bigger than a top handle it pulls the harness down which is annoying. 
 

Gotta say that and a lack of hood are my drawbacks on an otherwise excellent jacket. Velcro cuffs and a hood that stows in the collar would give it top marks in my opinion.

Had them for the past 3 months and I'm very pleased with them. I've come from air streams and find these loads nicer for climbing. Would definitely get again.

34.7m

As suggested by someone else on here I added a disc lock reminder cable to the saw, which I found to be a great idea.

Take a look at British Horse Loggers

Cheers everyone. Thanks for the replies

Cheers hodge. Do you know if dave at haytons does stuff like this?

Don't know much about rebuilds. Are they worth doing?

From reading other forums about this engine I get the impression there was a manufacturing problem where the gasket blew due to an issue with the bolts. I've got a feeling this happened with mine, on what i was told was a newish engine when I bought the machine. Anyone else had this problem?

Just wondering aswell would any other engines go on. I'm not a big fan of the kohler

Cheers for the replies. I'll look into it tomorrow

Hi I've got a Vermeer 186 that has just seized. It had a kohler command 20hp in and I was wondering if anyone knew if it was possible for me to replace it with a 25hp engine. Any advice would be great. Cheers

:thumbup:Good stuff. Hats off to you.

Yeah I live a few miles out.

Thanks Steve.

Yeah that's the one Sam. Where are you at?

Hi Steve

Can you do mine too.

Thanks fella

Cheers Tom and dog tag yeah that videos what's started me off. Cheers

It's poison ivy. I managed ok with some new stuff but the one I have climbed on for a while is a nightmare. Hadn't done the stitch/ needles at the x so will try that next time. Cheers for the advice.

Just started splicing, but I'm struggling on the core into cover bury, just wondered if anyone has any tips for this part of the splice on doublebraid. cheers for any help.

40 & 23 years climbing under me belt. Here's to the next 23

Had a friend send this from Laos.

I gave up a couple of years ago and was amazed how much you will try and kid yourself into letting yourself have another, it is a chemical and psychological addiction after all. Good luck, it will get easier.

Sideways rain and gusty here, another lovely day in the Lakes :-)
