Have you tried andrew? Or miles machinery or l and s have makita parts I think

Probs get away with it if needs must. But knowing my luck it would melt some vital plastics or rattle loose and thread the exhaust bolt hole on the cylinder.

Where's folks getting their reels from? Chains direct are sold out of 75dpx (3/8 0.063 semi) , which is cheapest I've found it.

Alex, I often overload my small isc floating bollard. I use either a dyneema whoopee which will cinch up with just a big dan on until it's nipped right up or 16mm double braid deadeye with a timber hitch - again just setting it all up tight as can be. You get a bit of slop after the first few heavies but certainly not shin to chest level. Like 1ft tops

I replaced my exhaust with a cheapo chinese one. Just because my orm was knackered. Didn't notice a difference tbh, but always loved that saw. Best thing i did was sticking a 9pin sprocket off a 440 on with a 18" .325 bar it cut very well.

Are they stretchy?

My arbortec breatheflex are coming to the end of their life- can't sew them up any more times. Any climbets up for recommending decent stretchy long lasting trousers? The solidurs anygood? Not too happy about them Being 300 quid these days

It's the tea flask left on kitchen top at home that gets me going

You decide how you want to do it and what your up for. Don't feel any pressure to do something you don't think is safe. Saying that refusals to climb will cause friction Expect plenty of folk on here climb with no aerial rescue. Others wouldn't. Personally I do, and on some jobs feel it's safe others not so much and I'll make sure aerial rescue is present. I've worked with plenty of people with tickets I wouldnt trust to even get up a tree and others with non that would rescue you in minutes. I wouldn't ask someone else to climb without aerial rescue or expect them to but wouldn't mind if they wanted to

All my things that run on red seem to be getting blocked filters in this recent cold spell. Genny,tractors,chipper,digger. See through filter is waxy af,when brought inside it liqifies fine. Does anybody add anything to their red? Petrol mix?antigelling agent? Driving me nuts

Whats a semi with mesh?

I've broken several sets of the freedconns. It's mostly the plugs/wires/speakers that seen to break fastish,got probs a year or 2 out of them. Stopped using them and enjoying the peace up a tree not having constant chat. The freedconns lasted ok but was annoyed that the ones on my spare helmet for groundy etc broke as quickly as the ones on my climbing helmet, which seemed wierd as my ones are out getting weathered more as not switched on everyday. Will probs try better quality ones at some point.

What grippy gloves you reccomend then?

I keep trying gloves and 0ften where arbortec or pfanners but often find they get taken off when I'm climbing as dont grip as well as skin
