  1. You planning to stick around for long?
  2. You'd certainly hope so, you've been doing it for years!
  3. Who doesn't love the odd cash job?
  4. Evasive answers normally mean something less important/interesting than he'd like you to believe.

    No, to be fair he's got me pretty much dead to rights there 👍
  6. Why would they discount your next pair? You must've noticed straight away that they weren't ppe. Return them.
  7. It sounds like your issue is more likely how your spikes fit than the gaffs you're using. Have you adjusted the shank to suit your leg length? Top and bottom straps need to be tight as possible.

    Bet you'd be great fun at a party.

    Were that true, our correspondence could land you on a very undesirable register...

    If you need clarification I'll hand it over to DCI Gene Hunt:

    Like I said mate, I'm just a tree cutter. I didn't understand any of what you just said.

    And I bet you look just lovely with your saw pod.

    Mate, I'm a tree cutter. The education system failed me a long time ago!

    Anyone still using a Silky is a bit of a mincer these days.
  15. You would enjoy the Gordon's Gin advert that Philip Glennister did
  16. 🤣 I think it's more like the wear you get from running a ported saw into an embedded bit of wrought iron 🙄
  17. Any ideas what's causing this premature wear on the 30" sugi? Only bought it from Rob 6-7 years ago. Presume it's still under warranty?
  18. I was being facetious, tubbo. I can't understand why you'd have a problem putting a tool hook into the leather webbing.
  19. Best start a new thread about them first
  20. Yeah the biggest pitfall of the treemotion is that you can't hang saws off it. Shame cos it's a great harness otherwise.
  21. Seems like he wants a new chipper for less than what a new chipper costs.
  22. Wasn't questioning the OP's decision to get someone in. Probably the sensible decision. It sounded like you were suggesting that you should bore and release that tree. I was replying to that.
  23. Anyone struggling to knock that tree over with a conventional felling cut wants to hang up their saw trousers.
  24. My experience of the 201t has been pretty good. Had it from new, one of the early models with the normal carb. I drilled the exhaust and later added the upgrade kit and its been great. Had it for about 8 years and aside a couple of cracked plastics it's been faultless. How many 200t ran for that amount of time without carb issues? You need two toppers as a climber though. 10" and a 14" If I was buying to replace the 201t I'd be getting the T540 (battery or petrol)
  25. I think we can get a couple more threads out of it first.
