It's a bit worrying if you didn't know that a heavy reduction on a Silver Birch is not a good idea!!

Hi Paul it was a before after shot. It was a volume reduction just wanted to take a lot of the weight out of the tree.

I think your right I don't tend to think about it as much as I do when I have a chainsaw in my hands

Little job we did the other day it was a great tree, lovely to climb. Spec was 30% reduction due to Ganoderma lipsiense.. ( I think)

I'm sure I will be put right if its not...

They have got to be the most dangerous tool!!

I did this yesterday. It ripped part of my nail clean off.

Hey mate i have just got a job here and I think they are still looking.

We are looking to set up an additional Arb crew based in the West Midlands.

We require a highly skilled 3 man crew. Team leader plus 2. The crew will be running out of a 7.5 tonne rig so those with the correct licence would be ideal.

Please contact me asap if you are interested.

07525-911136 Mark.

Good rates of pay, all PPE and equipment supplied including company uniform.

These are full time permanent positions

That would be tiring!!! I was only asking because a job im looking at is an hour away.. Which seems pretty lame compared to you.

Just a quick question, whats the longest time you would be prepared to travel to work? Or how far do you travel now.

Thanks...

Hi, I dont suppose you need any climbers?

Criticism welcome

I have been doing it for 2 years and I got taught to imagine its an orange to peel in 4 sections (If that makes sense). Its probably the thing I dread most but you get job satisfaction when you do a really good job. Just go with your instincts. The worse bit is coming down the tree walking away from it and praying it looks good when you turn around to see it!!

Here is one I did its only pics I have....

No its not mine. I just found it on a website but I do like the style of it but would have a different colour.

But I would recommend looking for a really good tattoist. Inka in Derby is brilliant if your near that at all pinus but the waiting list is over a year.

What about this one?

Easy! Keanu Reeves

Thanks Joy I will defiantly be giving him a call tomorrow

Daniel day lewis?

are you talking before or after you have put the end line knots in?

After I have put the knots in

Thanks guys that's brilliant!!

Just one more thing how long should the ocean polyester length be? Does 90cm sound about right.

I will be honest I am rubbish with knots.

I have just brought some ocean polyester without the eyes and just wondered which knot to use instead.

thanks

Bloodstock! Its cheapish and 2 minutes away!! Motorhead are on

Brilliant!!! Just what I needed thanks Ian. That has definitely made my mind up!!
