  1. Pulled off google search. So you could see what im on about. Also good for when your on poles and pollarding
  2. Take up a endless sling with u. Once u get out on to the branch and almost in position wrap the sling around the branch and use as a foot hold to stand out straight in bud. Ive also got a 7m CE lanyard from Skyland equipment and if needs be wrap that around an above branch giving me a 2nd tie in point. The thimble on it keeps the crab away from the branch and stops side loading
  3. If our boss hasnt sorted something out ill pop across. Never used it and want to use it
  4. Called R.Sorby and there sending me out the correct collet 👍

Tail end is tun through a fig 8 clipped on to a different tree post or myself and off they go. If climbing with one, one line for each. Then attach son to myself. The youngest has a mini 3-1pulley set up so he can pull him self up when he feels like it lol. Then its done to dad 👍 Had our current youngest in a tree more about 18 months.
