Looking to fill a few more days here and there.

Am in south Norfolk area.

Climbing kit, saws, rigging kit, Ppe.

If your not a corner cutting, hotheaded, saw throwing idiot and like to have a methodical bravado free day using common sense rather than blind panic and rushing give me a shout.

Bump.

Got a few free days.

Cheers

Rock o hitch end and rock d on lanyard, same on flip line.

Ultra o's on hitchclimbers.

Rock exotica pirate on rope wrench.

Wish rock exotica had round noses tho.

U shaped dmm are far better than the key hole things.

Brave posts lads. Takes a lot to say all that.

I'm 31 had depression on and off since 14\15 yes old. Dad gave me and sis a chemical imbalance. Cheers dad.

Anyways point is I spent years on and off an citalopram etc and it only covered the prob like drinking or sniffing stuff did.

Took it upon myself to conquer it thru avoiding stuff that triggered it. Stress, crap mates, birds that weren't worth a wank, work, drink and drugs.

I know accept that every month I'm gonna have one or two black days, its hard but I'm personally better off the pills for sure.

Eating well and sleeping right defo helps as does taking time to have a deep breath in the morning and laugh at everything.

Keep ya heads up fellas there's loads of us nutters about in the tree game, think its half the reason we can use saws at heights??

All the best to you all.

Hi fellas after a guru in the south Norfolk north Suffolk area who can help me a 200t carb issue. Same old zama crap, after learning a bit on tuning etc.

Any one out there can help for a drink or a few quid great if not no prob.

Cheers

Trouble is you're happy to start your career off on a wage like £8 but you'll always be wondering if the grass is greener.

With big companies it ain't always, with smaller firms it often is but work might not be so consistent.

The firm obviously either doesn't value the skill the lads have (which leads to a **** you mentallity) or the lads that coulda climbed it have done what I did and gone freelance as they know the moneys a joke and long term your gonna get pushed harder and be a better arb for it.

There is however a lot to be said for a good **** job and many are plobaly just cruising along. Fair play when ya got kids, mortgage etc.

Having worked both full time and freelance I clearly felt a big difference in my level of care as to whether I did a tree or not. In a big company its easy to hide when you're feeling less than on point, but freelance work means no cutting no pay.

Working for a firm or freelancing seems to be the difference between plateauing and pushing yourself.

Of course some have more drive or determination or even the most dangerous trait bravado and will achieve more than the dude that hides. Each to their own.

What I do know is the smaller firms I've worked for tended to have better ethos, better time frames.

Bigger firms seems to be smash it out on to next one.

Use the middle hole if you ain't gonna use it for a lanyard or second line. Or change the hitch length.

Hello fellas. I'm Michael, 31, south Norfolk area.

30 31 38 39 40, ua1, mewp, first aid, cscs. Countryside mgmt Lev 3, dip arb Lev 2.

Full climbing kit, ppe, saws and transport.

4 years exp. Loads of pruning and rigging. All carried out to high spec. Domestic and commercial.

Looking for odd days climbing in south Norfolk, north Suffolk area to fill up my weeks.

Michael : 07553106474 or pm.

References available along with pics etc.

used to laugh at 170`s and 181ms`s etc but with a 10/12" picco type bar and chain are real good for low level pruning.

always a right tool for the job.

meindle are narrow haix wider imo. ive had good from both brands. get boots with steel midsole if your gonna do alot of time on spikes n look after them and they`ll look after u.

hello mate, just brought myself set of ali distel all velcro. well worth it. reasonable money too. did have stein spikes but the distels shin pads are the one.

anybody? drew, barry skyland, etc know if you can use the zillon lanyard srt like i do with my pinto/distel. was thinking bout a positioner or cinch too, srt?. opinions please

the distel tends to bind up as mini srt, would the zillon slip slowly? or lock harder?

cheers

feel for you fella. wouldnt have thought it in dersingham but just shows u never know. lots of building work and loadsa holiday homes tho.. they must be cruising around and hear the saws/chipper working. did have a dodgy lookin van crawl past us when we did a couple of beech removals in burnham market up that real narrow hill in the village just before xmas missed the plate tho. bastards when ya working for your family.

all the best to you my man. mike

jesus. feel for u my man.

oh and welcome dude, i dont contribute sod all mate bad really but have learnt n laughed loads. take care

recognize it..

if u look on honey bros its treehog but on fr jones its arbortec th7000.

seems a bit odd to me. is a third party making them or is one brand selling to another.

my opinion mate.

could be wrong

explore arb i love it mate. that is the way. works for me on most people even the local yobs. On point with the mikey dread ref.. boom.

Have done a couple and got another in a co-dom pine tomo. its not simple stuff. the splicing is. read the instructions and watch the online video. theres a few variables i.e slack or tight or with shock absorber or not. sounds to me like the bracing did its job?? any signs at the union? cheers

yes mate, no check = no pay.

dont mind it personally but we only have check n tick form.

any chance you fellas can elaborate on the health issues here. Ive got another mast/dish job this week.

cheers

hello mate, Barchams, Ely is the place to go. Their leading the way. Went to the AA p@d seminar earlier this year, john sacre explained the quarantine regime etc. Get on it.

feel for ya bud. good you werent split long. f88kin sickenin robbing your dog. i have 3 terriers and 2 parrots myself, there me best mates haha. material stuff hurts but can be replaced. not ya best mate. take care boss

fishermans. have a good look at the knots, pull em tight and dress them proper. tie one up n hold it with the cross section facing you, turn it n youll see the opposite side is pretty flat compared to the cross, this side sits against the pulley. sorry if thats suckin eggs

i use a bit of op with 75cm between the finished knots and the same vt as on the knot guide.

look up the hitchclimbers guide to the canopy vid and pdf if u aint already.

in my opinion dont bother with anything from stihl with a 1 on the end. at work we got 6 261`s all are crap. get a second hand saw or a reconditioned older model. 260, 360, 440 etc. proper tools..
