    Who uses these and on what helmet? Thanks. Sena Dual SMH10 Headset

    For those that have used both, is Cougar Blue much better than Kernmantle? Is it just the larger diameter that makes it nicer to use? Thanks

    He's right. I had a Transit, then a Unimog, now another Transit. Transit is totally useless as a chip truck. I should have got a short lorry instead.

    Crikey, if I can't get the good Armor Pruss for my Poison HiVee, I'll have to buy a Rope Runner!
  6. Old Mill Tree Care
    That's the stuff Mark. Useless stuff!

    Has anyone used this Edelrid Powerstatic for SRWP? If so, which device do you use? Thanks. Access rope - Treeworker.co.uk

    I've bought it from honey Brothers in the past. Be careful though because I seem to remember two different types and one type was useless on my Poison HiVee.

    Why use the RW instead of the RR Ian?

    The best solution to combat rising beer prices is to drink Vodka. I believe it doesn't matter how much a bottle costs, it's money well spent!

    Quite right Mick. I never buy any fuels from supermarkets. My advice for these wee chippers is to run them on Aspen 4.

    Erm, Atkinson Vos or AC Price. They're specialists in this so they won't hash it up.

    Is it preferable just because it's a nicer colour or am I missing something?
  15. Old Mill Tree Care
    Thanks Mark. I'll be talking to Nod then.

    Cougar Blue? It's not blue. Am I being stupid?
  17. Old Mill Tree Care
    What rope is that?
  18. Old Mill Tree Care
    No chance!
  19. Old Mill Tree Care
    Oh yeah. I'd forgotten about Yale blue tongue. Has anyone used both?
  20. Old Mill Tree Care
    I think the idea is that two ropes improve safety from a stability and therefore work position point of view.
  21. Old Mill Tree Care
    So I'm about to buy another rope, 50 or 60 metres. Is the general consensus still that Cougar Blue is the best 11.7mm for SRWP?
  22. Old Mill Tree Care
    That's a really good anchor. I like how it choke in both directions. Defo survive the flop test.
  23. Old Mill Tree Care
    You getting the 8" in the end James? Jon said you may opt for the 6" rather than wait.
  24. Old Mill Tree Care
    Hahaha!

    It's not rude Charles but I use long reach hedge cutters because I can reach twice as high as with a short one, therefore reducing the ladder work by 50%, in other words trimming the hedge twice as fast. The ELH reduces the fatigue level considerably (& reduces the vibration in the hands) therefore I can keep trimming and only stop to refuel.
