get stuck in hullsmillfarm! last night i ended up in the shed with a few sticks, hammer, wedge and axe seems to work ok but now i appreciate how a froe will work and also that a large chisel seems to be no replacement for a drawknife has anyone done anything with laburnum, i split a stick into about 6 peices and think it might make something interesting, the colours are really nice

cheers mate, excellent, I've got a 8' long plank of burred elm I milled out a couple of years ago, I've been wanting to make it into a table, when I seen your gates I decided that how I want to do the legs etc.. Defo interested in the tools, maybe some pictures - the names mean nothing to me yet

cheers mate, but that's a 700 mile round trip for me.

after looking at cleft gates in another thread I'm keen to give it a go but not sure where to start. I amuse it goes along the lines of - take one stem, welly in wedges. But it cant be that simple?

keep an eye out for the hitch catching on the top krab when you sit into your harness, i find that more than 4 turns becomes too tight and is a hassle

dam strait, the hitch climber only allows you to work the prussik / whatever one handed

I'm a freelance climber, I turn up on site/yard with my own climbing kit, saw and fuel. at the moment I'm on 6 days a week, £120.00 p/d + diesel if you want me to travel out with my local area. at the moment i have about 4 regular clients that fight for days plus guys who use me from time to time, i pick who gets priority. this year at some point it's going up to £140 - £160. also fit in my own jobs when I can and that's bonus money pays tax, holidays etc.
-
4+ years experience, fit, good climber, own kit own transport etc. based in Dundee, willing to travel within reason (unless you want to put up board) Mail me for more info.
