I'm Labour only too, you might have a point there but its nothing ill lose any sleep over. I don't tend to use my kit beyond its limitations and its generally well maintained apart from the light rigging pulley that I've been trying to kill for ages. Also, I take no responsibility for gnomes.

You getting into splicing mate?

Sarah Millican, if I had one free kill it'd be her. Hands down

Same, I keep everything I need in my truck. Who I'm working for and what I'm doing dictates what I bring. I don't charge extra for my big saws, unless the company doesn't have their own. I just know mine will be sharp and well maintained. Terror saws get used for the last couple of metres though. I take a full maintenance and sharpening kit everywhere. It's amazing how some places won't even have a combi spanner sometimes. I Luke my rigging kit as I've got capabilities for stuff like speed lines, controlled zipline, our balancing limbs, which most firms don't have. It makes my life easier.

Ed Sheeran, smug twat. I feel dirty typing his name

Its like "Catch me if you can"... you're the old fat bloke. I'm Leo

Absolutely none mate. The cab sav is much more befitting a cold evening.

Well Christ, I was born halfway there!

God I'm bored

Subject to 6 months checks for signs of abuse?

The last one was personal, I'm sorry.

yours is getting on a bit any showing its age?

you'd rather sub the job out and watch and give pointers?

You prefer yours simple and easy to loosen?

You struggle to get into one recently?

When I grow up I want to be just like you

that's more you do with your on site kitchen though, right?

Mark,@treeman on here has a treehog harness, it does its job but I don't think he'd buy another.

I’ve been wearing these chainsaw trousers for a couple of months now. I usually wear type A’s, so I was expecting these to be hotter and heavier than I was used to. When I put them on though, the first thing I noticed was that these trousers are light! I mean really light, when I compared them to a pair of Stein Revolution Type Cs I had in my wardrobe. You can tell you’re wearing Type C’s, but only really because you can feel the rear protection, rather than because of the weight. They’re pretty cool too. I’ve been wearing them in some pretty warm weather, and compared to the other Type Cs I have worn they breathe very well. I’m not saying they’re cooler than Type As, since no Type Cs are, but they’re definitely cooler than any Type Cs I’ve worn! Both of these points are apparently due to the “TrioStrand” technology which (I’m told) is a unique way the chain blocking material is constructed, making it thinner and lighter than usual. They look the part too. Hi vis marking on the lower legs, and black and bright green in colour. I prefer a close fit, and these are snug. Not baggy, but not constricting. Similar in fit to the HiFlex, or maybe a touch snugger. The bootlace hooks on the inside lower leg are an interesting feature. Designed to stop your trouser legs riding up and filling your boots with sawdust. To be honest I’ve not used them, since I don’t have this problem, but its a nice touch (you can always cut them off if you don’t like them). One thing that made me grin is the pockets. There are loads! Eight in total (two back, two front hip, left thigh, phone pocket above right knee, two right thigh). I don’t own enough to fill all those! Perhaps a touch excessive for me, but thats just my preference. 6 of these pockets are close-able, so sawdust isn’t too much of an issue, and the phone pocket above the right knee is very useful. They seem very durable so far (a must in a pair of saw trousers). No rips or snags yet, and I don’t go easy on trousers. The seams look well stitched, and theres a tough kevlar like material on the front shins and ankles, great for if you’re a bit clumsy on spikes like me! Overall I really rate these trousers, and I’ll be replacing them when they’re retired (hopefully not for some time yet). Great looks, comfort and practicality, for a pretty reasonable price! Arbortec have really listened to when people want on this one. My favourite pair so far. Still not sure what I could put in eight pockets though! View full review

22" bar on a 50cc saw? Just why?! And calling it a blade will see you lynched in the street.

So you're the guy that keeps my bed warm while I'm on night shifts...

What point are you trying to make exactly?

This is what I've got:
