Hi all,
Just putting some feelers out there as this last couple of years has got me a little recognition and with a big thanks to Arbtalk, and Steve Bullman, I've been able to share my work my views and opinions also I've been able to teach a few others some basic techniques in rigging and climbing.
I believe I'm a hard worker, good climber and have the knowledge and experience you would require to get any Arb related work completed, not just climbing I'm willing to do what it takes to get the job done, brash dragging, chipping, raking, lugging timber, and also equipment maintenance and repairs.
I've been in the Arb trade now for 15 years and have tickets CS 30/31/32 CS38/39 CS40/41 chipper operator, 26m MEWP ticket and full UK drivers licence, unfortunately its not pre 97. I've been self employed now for 4 years, working for a few local firms and contractors, I've also had the pleasure of working/climbing with some great guys/girls in and outside work.
I know I've posted most of these before but I'll post them here again just to show how I work and some stuff I've done, also I will use this thread to add more jobs i will carry out, be it pictures or videos.
I have all the essential climbing, rigging gear and also small medium to large saws for any job,
Thanks for reading, if your interested in hiring me please post here or give me a PM or better still call me for a chat on 07960282489

Birch reduction by 3m twin stemmed from the base, reduction works were carried out to help reduce the risk of storm damage or summer limb drop.
After reduction
Crane work from a couple years ago, I've 12 crane take downs under my belt now, and becoming quite competent at them,
Sycamore reduction buy 1.5/2m all round, not quite sure on why this spec was given!
After reduction
Bit of MEWP work on a beech takedown with kretzschmaria killing the tree MEWP dismantle was by far the safest option.
Couple of rigging photos from various jobs
Using a separate rigging line as a false anchor point
Bit of tedious rigging over a few BT lines
