Gear storage... how do you keep yours?
[email protected] replied to WorcsWuss's topic in Climbers talk
climbing gear in one bag,rigging in the other,however im quite OCD for getting ropes out and hanging them up in the workshop on 4 bars welded to a girder,normally in size order i must admit!! the crew cab hides a vast wardrobe of clothing,wet gear,slings d shackles and felling wedges.im like a magpie when it comes to the van,i hate getting to a job and not having the right bits n bobs to get the job dne chainsaws are on racking,climbers & hedgecutters top shelf then groundsaws 346 etc then felling saws 372 395 etc the 3120 lives on the deck with the brushcutters ocd im afraid -
that cottage got off quite lightly considering the size of the oak. nice trunk,got any offers for planking on it yet?

:blushing: some months back we had a 200t go missing from a site. looked everywhere but couldnt find it. presumed it had been nicked and claimed for a new one on insurance.... loading stobarts yesterday and a strange steaming dangly lanyard appeared in loading shovel bucket..... pulled it out and behold a steaming 200t that must of been in the chip pile since june!! must of been tipped off in a hurry!! well rusted up,pull cord and throttle all seized up, bar n chain had started to crumble apart!!! stripped it,rebuilt starter mechanism and throttle,on/off switch.threw a new bar n chain on it.flushed tank 10 pulls and it came back to life!!! what are the chances and what were the chances of it running!!!! awsome turn up
