If it was me I would go through the tests in the manual (link below) before ordering parts- looks like they are plug and play (not like a Transit one) but may be wrong. Compared to the cost of the chipper or even a Vanguard engine I don't expect the special tools shown in the repair manual are that dear. https://www.mudbuddy.com/manuals/vanguard/vanguard-37-efi-repair-manual.pdf

ART positioner with swivel - there was a vid with a climber who had worn all the red anodising off his, must have paid for itself many times over. When changing over high up and throwing the rope hanging off the positioner you have to trust it - the internet would have hopefully told us if people were plunging to their deaths due to ART positioners coming apart, not heard one incident with them. The Trango Cinch, if they still make them, is smoother for abseiling with a long lanyard on the bridge in single line mode.

Thread title should read affected. Control the population? Imagine an experiment with say 10 rabbits introduced into a 10 acre enclosure with impenetrable walls. They would go at it until the graph plateau - some starvation as they reach the carrying capacity of the enclosure

Some of the tree men on here own 1.5 acre plots like you, most of them used to be window cleaners

£500! how much to sort this out £25000?

he asked for instructions so he could do it himself - is it not good business to share tricks of the trade on the forum? It would have taken five minutes to ask the technicians the preferred method to remove and install the bearing and post a quick step by step how to on it

I don't shape these, but as an example of what I was suggesting

I like your constructive criticism, instead of just ripping the piss out of him as above. Gotta be cruel to be kind, hmmm On the subject of style those things can look nice shaped maybe twice yearly with hedge trimmer, turns them into e.g a giant egg, nothing like the habit of an open grown tree, but a bit of neat and high greenery

The big oak Hillsborough Castle gardens also looks worth a go, hope people don't leave their tangled throwlines in the Dawyck silver fir. Cathedral Rd lime, Wales - beast after my fantasy day climbing the big trees I would ride home on a fast bike

That bottom pic looks a right tangle, why cant the second hitchclimber just be on a long lanyard?

If he had gone to the trouble of jacking it up and taking a couple of wheels indoors may have helped, although if they broke into the barn or whatever and found a nice new quad on axle stands at the front maybe they would look into acquiring 2 suitable wheels to bring with them next time. It is inconvenient and takes time and thought, but I imagine there are many ways to make engine disabling switchable out of sight, a good auto electrician maybe. All this assuming it was driven off each time.

If Arbtalk's Mr Johnson is right the con/brexit coalition odds are good too get 12 back for every pound. Im not sure Id want to put say 3 grand on an election this year to make 300 quid or lose the lot, worse than penny shares

had to re-watch and this time I couldn't see any climbing line, only a line guying the dead tree, scary shit

Interesting, like your can do attitude, although iirc that sky walk tree he had his line in a good tree nearby

Nice size tree. And didn't look too decayed, although the yellow rope one cant quite see. Do you ever turn up and the contractor has booked you to climb a big tree that looks healthy leaf wise, but when you start cutting have decided too much decay to be roped in to it?

Not the same tracks, but these wheel to triangular track units be handy offroading a 2wd van https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=atruT7EcoS0

If we do leave can the navy fire on fishing vessels poaching, or would they just be escorted back to international waters?

it's thick enough to slow someone with a 4 1/2 inch battery grinder, so they try a bigger grinder (230mm)

maybe scaffolding to make a footbridge to walk stuff back

I would only be about £140 for that, nothing taken away. The dedicated tree firms with mobile platforms a lot more. Personally I would try to jam a ladder in there and top them from a rope and harness, perhaps tripod ladder and hedgecutter on a ht131 polesaw for the sides. Jameson poles and pulley pruner in the tree to get the frondy bits far from trunk. Your talk about having the luxury of a MEWP, picker then tying in as well sounds dodgy, you shouldn't need to. You can learn tree cutting from a rope and harness from books e.g 'Tree Climbers Companion' and there are books on tree work from MEWPS(platforms) too e.g, https://www.trees.org.uk/Book-Shop/Products/A-Guide-to-the-use-of-MEWPs-in-Arboriculture It is worth paying for training and certificates in aerial tree cutting if you think it's work you would like to tackle confidently. I did those size trees before having any tickets, but you can still break your neck falling fifteen feet. If you have to ask how much to charge for that, say to the farmer 'I haven't got a clue, but am willing to tackle it for free to get the experience.'

only in the same way that all assets are currently artificially inflated - by the effects of quantitative easing and historically record low interest rates. The easiest way to crash house and land prices would be to put the base rate back to a more normal 5%

If a gardener keeps their machinery in the garage do they have to apply for a change of use for their house from purely residential, as they are now operating a commercial enterprise from their driveway?
