Hi all. Just wondering if anyone can point me in the direction of some instructions for how to splice Yale Hedera 110, which I believe is the same construction as Kernmaster.

Thanks in advance!

Ben

Can I ask you in what ways you think it is a shambles? I'm curious as I'm due to start the same course on the 15th of this month.

Thanks

Ben

Feel free to add me on Facebook (https://www.facebook.com/UncleRice) so I can create a Fb group for our course.

Anyone received any more info since being accepted on the course? I'm a bit surprised they haven't given us a reading list or anything yet. Isn't long before it starts!

BUMP

Evening,

The other day while taking down a mature Copper Beech tree I noticed some of the leaves had a disorder which I couldn't place. I couldn't find it in the books I have (It may be my poor book skills) so thought I would turn to Arbtalk for the answer.

Thanks for your help

Ben

Thanks very much guys. The Hatfield one is only about 60 miles from me.

Hello,

I was wondering if the seminar by Mattheck would be taking place in England at some point? Or is it just in Edinburgh?

Thanks very much

Hi guys,

Today I got confirmation of my place on Myerscough's online foundation degree course! Cant wait to get started in September. Got a lot of reading to get done in the meantime.

I thought I would create this thread to find others who are going to undertake the course.

Some amazing photos there guys!

Evening all! Having just signed up myself, I was wondering if any of you guys were on Instagram? If so feel free to follow me 'badassarborist'.

Post your names below!

Cheers

Cheers bud!

Can anyone provide a link to the between the legs throwing method? I'm terrible at throwing! Either ends up tangled around a low branch or behind me

I have a 560xp. Bloody blazing saw. Very high acceleration. A lot of grunt. And also I love how it is always ready to start (The off button always springs back to 'on' when stopped)!

What in tree work is good for you?

Just bought my tickets! Thank you for putting it all together Steve. What a great cause!

That is one BEAUTIFUL looking saw!

Have mine running an 18, I think an 18 is the perfect size for the 357 IMO

Had one on my Husky 357xp for quite a while now, and it is showing very few signs of wear despite the abuse i put it through. Highly rate them myself!!! (I am only on my first though, so others may disagree)

Just got mine today. Haven't used it properly yet. But just from setting up the auto true I am very impressed. Lovely little saw!

Thanks for the replies guys , I guess I will have to go down the foundation degree/prof dip. Shame they are all so expensive. Deffo looking for an oline course.

Welding gloves all the way! Only thing I've found that keeps the thorns out

Hi,

I am looking to further my qualifications and knowledge in the near to long term future and have decided that I like the ISA's setup to do this. I currently have a level 3 extended diploma in forestry and arb, and I was wondering if there is a middle stage, inbetween the cert arb and the mastor arborist (available to do in the uk)

The reason that I am not sure whether I should do the cert arb, is because from what I have been told it is a level 2 qualification.

What would you advise I do?

Thanks very much!

Ben

.....

For those of you who might be interested my lovely little 406 is up for sale on ebay.

Sad to see her go, but i'm leaving the arb world and cant justify having her as a toy

Please give her a good home
