I'm going to throw my hat in for some guelder rose , stunning late winter berries hanging like jewels gorgeous to look at and important for the birds Ps if you like birch get yourself over to Sweden , absolute monsters .. -

Dont know the maths involved but generally between 1-2 metres above the ground is the greatest bending moment / tension of a tree and is the most likely to split out therefor . (does look as if you have had two stabs at the hinge as mentioned , not a criticism at all just an observation )

Just seen it in the news , you will be okay if you head to a mountain in the Pyrenees . See you all there ?

The one below your upper/side D

Sounds like you have had a bit too much LARGER jonesie !!
-
Just stick a little fig8 in your lower D , smooths out any jumpiness in your hitch under the circumstances you say . Thats what i got recommended from on here and it works a treat

Have to be careful cutting at that height also its the trees ' hotspot' ie its highest stress point .

Oak tree fallen branches - diseased or rotted?
born2trot replied to Russell Ball's topic in General chat
In my opinion that wood hasnt rotted enough for failing under ' normal' circumstances . The storms in the east coast round about that time were extremely damaging , i did an oak very similar to the pictures which ripped apart much worse than the one shown because of included unions , not decay specifically . -
Any particular reason behind your suggestion ?

ALLEZ BRAD !!!!!

Cool photo's dude !! ( I'm gettin the aussie climbers speak ! )

Hey what about an invite for northern arbtalkers !! Yes Braemar i think must be one of the most stunning places in the uk . Mar Lodge is just a hidden gem , i'll never forget stumbling upon it when i came up here . Those mountains are so so tempting at the moment

Few shots from last weeks work in southwest Australia

Thats correct about the warm water . Thats what they put down to resurface skating rinks between sessions , it freezes much faster you can skate on it after 10 mins or so , not possible with cold water . The horses water troughs just get the ice broken on them and refilled with buckets from the house if outside taps freeze . Can be a pita but not alot you can do about it .

I just said there was threads on here where professional boys were struggling for work ?? Thats a fact .. Dont need to explain to me buddy what being truely on their arse is ..Been there aswell , glad to here you bounced back like me ..

Yes , agreed inspirational thread from silky but you seem to have overlooked other recent threads ? Thing is the auction for example wont be discussed gentlemanly over a pint sort of thing , it'll brew and simmer away until something ugly will happen . Only an observation , not condoning anything at all .
