  1. Ill try that, the only thing is that the husky has fuel from the same mix in it.
  2. its about 2 months yeah?
  3. Hi all, just tried starting my ms441 this morning as it hasnt been used in about 2 months but not even a splutter! checked fuel/air filter/spark plug etc and cant find anything wrong. My little husky 346xp starts first time and it hasnt been used in about 3 months. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Cheers
  4. I have been looking and looking but i cant find anywhere in or near glasgow to buy climbing kit from. I would like to try some things out before i buy them. Does anyone know of anywhere that sells kit. Cheers Paul:biggrin:
  5. Hi all, I am home for the holidays in Glasgow. I am looking to fill my time whilst im up here if possible. I have CS30, CS31, CS38 and CS39.I also have all my own saws, PPE, climbing kit and oil etc. If anybody needs a hand in the next few weeks i would really appreciate it.
  6. All very valid points. Guess ill just have to play around with different ones before i find the right one for me. oh well, hi ho hi ho its off to climb we go!
  7. Hi all, im comming home to Glasgow this week for xmas and newyear and am looking to fill my time whilst im up. I have CS30/31, CS38, CS39. All my own climbing kit and saws. If anyone needs a hand then im free. Im hard working, reliable, and dont complain about early starts and late finishes. Cheers
  8. You could try Jim Plumber of Plumber bros. I did my 30/31 with him. Good reputation. He runs courses all over Scotland and may be able to help. Happy hunting
  9. I have just ordered an HC and am wondering what are the thoughts on the best type of hitch to use with it. Any advice would be much apreciated.
  10. Cheers fellas it is a great feeling to have that one out the way. Got my first job tomorrow! My assessor was Paul Collie Davies. Nice guy, a hard but fair assessor. Like David Humphries says `onwards and upwards`.:thumbup:
  11. Passed! Got 1 minor for forgetting to put my whistle back into my first aid kit. Happy days! Cheers for all the good luck comments.
  12. Got my assessment today at Holme Lacy in Hereford. Feeling quietly confident. Time to let my inner monkey out and climb climb climb. Wish me luck! paul.
  13. Thanks for all the advice so far. Arbtalk has helped me a lot since the biginning of my arb career. I have used crolls a lot in rope access but to be honest i have heard the hitch climber pop up everywhere so unless something else pops up think ill go for that. I really like the idea of it and simplicity. Is it just oval Krabs that can be used with it?
  14. Yeah i have been using that as well sorry forgot to say. Thats what we use in rope access. I have a basic pulley and prussik system for my side strop. I know theres hundreds of systems for ascending but i was wondering if there is one that people could recomend (simple but easy). And also if people know where is the cheapest place online to get such kit. I know FR Jones and sons is very cheap. Theres nowhere near me that i can go to have a look and a dangle in a harness.
  15. Hi all, i am going to buy some kit very soon and cant decide what set up to use to ascend trees. I have just been using a very basic prussik to ascend. But when it comes to big trees its a pain in the arse and can get tiring. I have been a rock climbing instructor for years and rope access technician but both industries use very different methods. Any advice or recomended systems would be greatly appreciated. Pictures welcome. Cheers Paul
  16. Will do mate. Really looking forward to it! So its mainly remember my cuts, Common sense and safety When climbing?
  17. Hi all, i am starting my cs39 course tomorrow and was just wondering if anyone could tell me what is involved in the course and what i can expect. Jiust want to do a bit of swatting up before hand. Cheers Paul
  18. Hi all i am going home to Glasgow for a few weeks come the 15th Dec for the holidays. I am looking to fill in some time whilst im up there. I am doing cs39 this week. So hopefully ill pass that. Im hard working, Polite, punctual, Have all my own PPE and saws etc. If anyone has any work going that they need a second climber then id be game. Cheers Paul
  19. Thanks for all the advice, im sure it will all come clear on my course. Chhers and wish me luck. Paul
  20. Hi all, iv got my cs39 next week and i was just wondering what are the main uses for the in board and out board step cuts? I know its a stupid question but hey iv got to start somewhere. cheers Paul
  21. There might be quite a big job comming up. It would be nice to work with someone my own age as im also 25. I can provide all chain oil and fuel etc so no need to worry about that. Ill be in touch soon mate.

    Cheers

    Paul
