  1. OK, so the pictures have appeared here as well???? dont worry about the link....
  2. https://www.dropbox.com/sh/54hioa1xds7im4d/yxbJ7L3_GP Hi, if this above link works it shows the base of a tulip tree. Approximately 50% 0f the circumference is effected. There have been no fires or any other significant events near this tree which stands surrounded by lawn. Any ideas on identification would be gratefully received. Thanks

  4. .....obviously not for a ropeguide alternative but as an SRT choice. OK.
  5. <p>Hi and thanks for your help. Do you supply this kit? If so I currently have only an auto feed line head so I'll need everything to be able to fit both blades. What will I need and what will the cost be? Thanks.</p>

  6. looking for the most effective/agressive cutter fitting for my fs450. would be good if it'll work through 20-30mm material (acer saplings etc). any recommendations welcome. thanks
  7. we've used them for two years now, type 'a's. they're ok but the seams are failing and some parts where the stitching is real close to the edge of the material it has pulled away and is fraying. good value though.
  8. Black Diamond Wiz Kid Children's Climbing Harness | GO Outdoors worth a look, we found it better and apparently more comfortable that the full body types, good even when inverted too.
  9. Got to be someone out there who likes nice shaping, dead wooding, interesting rigging and drinking tea?
  10. Try and avoid lone working, if it's a 'day for one' then do it in half a day with two of you on site and something else for the other half day. Better productivity and much safer.
  11. had one for a few years now, cheap, chearful, effective and still gouing strong.
  12. Hi all, I'm looking for a 2nd climber for small outfit doing all sorts of varied arb work. Pretty chilled and generally good working conditions, please call for more info or text or e-mail and I'll contact you. Thanks for looking. Adam 07968770361 01252683591 [email protected]

  14. I agree with Rupe in so much as whatever energy is absorbed pulling the loop on the marlin through, it'll be lost as an advantage when the hitch finally unravels and the line is then shock loaded. Personally i use different size groundies as required.:-)
  15. <p>Hi, I have a fungal bracket to ident, I think its an oak polypore but believe this may be unlikely. I cannot attach files to Arb Talk with my telephone so was wondering if you have an email, should you be interested and happy to take a look. Adam.</p>

  16. bottom line, what can I use to do the job that won't require repeated re-application?? Is it still available and where can I buy some. Thanks
  17. where can Weedazol be purchased?? I have a raised bed approx 5m2 which is heavily populated with horse tail. No, i'm not doing any digging out...
  18. Someone can have a thousand 'tickets' and still be useless. Experience is worth a lot and it is sorely undervalued in today's world of work.
  19. I'll speak to the owner regarding lightning strikes, however there is no other evidence of this having occurred, i.e. no linear scarring etc.
  20. Hi and thanks so far. I have yet to dig down so cannot comment on what lies below the surface, I will do some digging this week. I can also get more on the history of the surfacing too. The thing at the top which protrudes above the canopy is a communications aerial, this has been in place for over 10 years. We shall be removing it and re-attaching it as required by our client. Possibly not ideal but that's the spec. Thank you for your help and opinions.
