  1. Hi there,

    One man band here (usually with subbys helping out) looking for some extra help. I'm looking for a sub-contracter to help fairly regularly with tree work and also some hedge trimming type jobs.

    Either a climber or groundsman would be suitable, I'm just looking for an extra pair of hands to call on when needed!

     

    Any questions drop me a PM!

    Thanks,

    Josh

  2. Good morning all,

     

    My name is Josh and I live in Bristol. I do tree surgery alongside other larger garden maintenance and I am after someone that I can use on bigger tree jobs as and when I get them.

    If there is anyone that could help me out for a day or two every so often that would be good. Only requirement would be to have your aerial rescue (CS38) ticket. If you may be able to help with this then drop me a PM or reply to me on here and we can go from there!

     

    The other thing I wanted to mention is that I am also looking to do some more work for other companies to gain more valuable experience. I can either ground or climb and have CS30,31,38 and 39. I also could provide a small chipper and van if that is any use to anyone?

    If you have any availability for work, I would be willing to do a day or two for free so you can be sure that I have a good work ethic and attitude.

     

    If anyone has anything going please do get in touch!

    Also willing to travel a bit too...

     

    Cheers,

    Josh

  3. No mate, they all have the SWL limits the beast rings are what I use for blocking down. :)

     

    Yeah, and I guess the configuration means they can't be self tightening (only for use with a crotch to hold in place)? For chogging could I use an x-ring with an open end and use a timber hitch to set it rather than using a whoopie or splice sling?

     

    Im guessing that is what is shown in your second picture with the yellow slings?

  4. No worries mate, if your thinking of buying them then I suggest a couple or at least the triple sling, using just one ring at the main anchor point isn't really good due to the bend radios, you can cancel the radios out if you have a couple of single rings buy spreading them about to create better angles for the rope :)

     

    Okay I will look into that then, what rope do you suggest to splice with? And is it just tied with a timber hitch? Thanks again!

  5. Good evening!

    I'm just looking into getting some rigging gear and the x-rigging rings seem to be a pretty good option instead of a block or pulley for smaller stuff. Im just wondering if they can be attached to a length of rope with a knot or do they have to be spliced? couldn't find much info on it here so any pictures or opinions would be much appreciated!

     

    Cheers, Josh
