There are a few more telehandler carriers of grapplesaws around now I think. Lorries are Wallace and Julian on the SW of the M25 and someone up north with a smaller one. Also one in Scotland. I’d be delighted to discover there are more. They’re great.

I’m on an iPhone 6s, Steve. I wouldn’t take it to heart.

The app never did this.

Probably but it’s the same on every connection I’ve been on for the last few years. It’s also just sent me back to the top a few times. Sorry…

South Bucks.

It does return you to the same thread in the list near enough. But when you go back, it reloads/refreshes so you’re still frozen out of scrolling for a second or two. I suspect the old (slick) back command was a dumber one that took you to the new posts list without checking whether it needed to update itself.

Well isn’t that lovely of you! Thanks. It’s only half fixed but I’m not sure you’re ready for the explanation just now. Have you gone back to drinking?

Yesterday. Did actually do some work from about 11:00. Someone else had done a load of climbing earlier in the week to get the machine hire down to one day. 21 tonnes of beech standing up (and about the same weight of telehandler). Ganoderma, brackets, getting soft in the butt and a little above the crown break but no real voids yet. Caught early by vigilant tree owner and regular drill and resistograph tests. From tree, back to watching other people work. 4.2 tonne bit below the crown break. One little bit below that was less. Machine lift capacity is 5 or 6 tonnes close in. And back to watching. Blowing and loading logs in this instance.

Not throw it on my road. Details down to you.

Gotcha. I’ve done similar. Cut your side and maybe a bit under. Then power through the strip left on the far side.
-
What do you do for drop-it-flat cuts? I either slash if I have enough saw or rig because there’s almost certainly a line there anyway. I’ve done a few step cuts and got away with them. Have done those square post cuts once or twice but clearly I don’t love them because I’d do them more if I did.

Has anyone ever seen Svat and Stefan in the same room? -
I’m authentic like that.

Answering more seriously, mornings are for quiet. I was only on that because I’d already been in the car for an hour, was having a good run and had warmed up on some Ani DiFranco. You might well be surprised to discover I like Ani DiFranco, she being a Trump-hating, pro-wog, pro-bender, feminist icon and me being… actually the same now I think about it. Nearly. Or maybe it’s because we were once only moderately distantly related. I remember her turning up to my uncle Allan’s funeral in a leather jacket with lizards for epaulettes. Coolest thing I’d ever seen.

The whole sandwich was a waste of everything to be honest. Mum’s always been able to take the choicest ingredients and assemble them into a really dry, mediocre product. Not being ungrateful of course. Saved me making it.

I saw someone throw a fag out of a car window just now. First thought was killing them.

I listened to about an hour of myself on Spotify on the way to work today. It really gave me a sense of my own importance.

Honestly can’t work out what you’re driving at. Took a video to clarify my previous. IMG_4976.MOV

I still don’t want one.

You can’t touch me. I’m inclusive.

Anyway. You know what's better than all of this tut? A crane. And you know what's better than a crane? Standing on the floor watching a grapplesaw do the first 70% of the job. That's tomorrow. I'll be cross if I break a sweat doing anything heavier than shutting my wallet.

And in real terms, if success and failure in negative rigging is coming down to a few inches of pre-tension or belly reel-in that a Hobbs might give over a dumb bollard, you're too close to the edge. Do it a different way.
