If ur around Suffolk Norfolk way give me a pm. The 10week course will get ur quals very quickly. But no experience. Better get experience then get the quals. It is good to have a plan but don't be afraid to change it if something isn't going write.

Keep hold of the money for as long as you can as it will disappear quickly. And to add my vote of being a subbie for a few companys and bulid a contact list. And see what set up works and what kind if work you want. Go to the trade shows and speak to the dealers and manufacturers. And see the kit in real life with the people you work for And go from there

done it -
Thoughts and condolences to his family.

also try the employment bit

the husqvarna sg13 is not massively differenet from any other 13 hp pedestrian stump grinder. if you want more than 13 hp then the choices get interesting. also try the large equipment section of the forum the topic has been discussed before so you can read up on lots of opnions too. lastly there are a few dealers and sppliers of machinery on here a quick pm may get the ball rolling. p.s. welcome to arbtalk:thumbup:

mmmmm very tempting.
-
the thing i would do slighty differenet is where you have the wire coming between the ear muff and the user i would put that behind the ear muff with a small hole in the outer casing of the ear defender but thats because i have a skin problem and the wire would irritate it.

ok cool i just dont want to always hear my groundie muttering or swearing at the chipper

What brand and model number are they do they work on vox or ptt? I like the idea just looking at the details. A mate if mine put a small iPod thingy in his helmet with speakers in the ears.

someone has a lot of spare time on their hands imagine having to work out all the niggles and each part to perfectly coincide with the other.

Low and slow. The idea of a rec climb sounds good. it will take time to bulid your confidence back up. as others have said take smaller pieces. Its better to finish late rather than have a repeat. I knew a climber who pulled his arm out of his socket and he re covered to being at 95% of the level of climber he was before but you will always be more cautious. sorry for the bullet point nature of the post im not great at putting all that info in to a nice readable paragraph

Throw line and throw weights and techniques
Ian Clarke replied to Adam Bourne's topic in Climbers talk
yep I use one line is marlow 10 0z and 12 0z single hand to my right like the big shot but dont have the cash or enough of a reason to justify it. tie a loop with a fig of 8 in the end of the line and larks foot it to the metal ring on the throwline not bad but not great well 2 bags 1 cube and 50m of line seems to be enough for me. if you have a rope with a spliced eye then a throw weight and a krab are a useful addition to help you ALT technique your way up a tree if there are big gaps. -
I've had outdoor climbing karabiners from DMM and use them almost exclusively on my kit. Speak to them and they will sort it very quickly.

I think that the human body and brain compensate when it cant hear the other senses get better. So if its not as good for spelling then it puts those resources to use elsewhere. I work for lots of companies and have met dislexic people all over but another person I knew was a dispraxic *hand eye coordination outdoor pursuits instructor

The art and science of practical rigging will be a good book for your collection or to start your collection.

Wishing you both all the best and hoping for good news.
