Anything that might be of help am after a climbing kit, any ppe that isnt needed, saws anything you think a newbie might need. Thanks

Hi guys Am starting to do the odd days now and am now after the odd bits of kit people might have for sale. If anyone has got any bits lying round and is willing to sell get in touch as i am now on the lookout as il need them now. Thanks Tree-Fela

yes i did ask an they said its paid jobs just completing ground work but at the end of the day its work and am just grateful for the chance. Once passed my 3 certifications to actually complete work within the tree i am then on the way. Tree-Fela

Luck would have it yesterday after asking on here if people had any work within the north west area, i recieved a call today from a local company to my area asking am i free to do some part-time work. So long begins the journey of becoming a full fledge arborist and the long days and short nights come in. If anyone is selling any equipment that could be of any use to me please pm me or let me know so we can have a discussion. Thanks Tree-Fela

I have got a pruning saw silky gomtaro, hi-flex, haix, husqvarna helmet, a set of stihl chainsaw gloves erm a stihl ms 170, a couple of prussiks, a few karabiners, a filing and sharpening kit for the 170 two vices, clamp and also seperate bottles for petrol and two stroke. Dont get me wrong i can have all equipment i need when completing work but its relying on other people i would like it when i can say to some yes i will be there with all me kit and turn up without having to wait on other people. I am also looking into any secondhand saws that are available from anyone i am interested in just the power unit without the bar an chain as i can buy them seperate if need be. Thanks again for all the help am getting its really useful. Tree-Fela

Would you go for a double eye or just a single?? also is the sequia or srt designed for the footlocking method because i was speaking to a tree surgeon today and he said a one of thos petzl harness are designed for footlocking. If you can think of any other alternatives to the kit please let me know as i am only looking for a basic kit to get started and then buy a better pieces as i have got more money. The Tree-Fela

i said the wrong type of climbing system for the side strop as you said a normal prussik will do to shorten and lengthen the rope all the rest is what i think would make a good kit. The Tree-Fela

Thanks for helping me out. I am after either a petzl sequia or srt, yale spearmint double eye 60m or longer if possible, bashlin spikes, wirecore flipline and also a normal flipline possibly a hitchclimber also i would like a hitchclimber on my climbing rope also. Also i would like 2-4 karabiners and also a tool strop could you give me a price for all that kit or something similiar which would do the job for a beginner who hasnt got loads of money. I am also looking at fuel cans if you are doing them. Please inform of any ideas you have got and if you think my climbing kit would be a very good one and would do me. If so what would you change and also any other sets that do the same job for cheaper. Once again thanks The Tree-Fela

Hi thanks for welcome also i see you sell bits of kits. Its abit cheeky but have you got any deals on for a full climbing kit as i am looking to invest in a good kit which has got everything and a decent harness. Also as i said earlier if any second hand pieces of kit about give me a shout. Thanks The Tree-Fela

hahaha what pants i am currently interested i have hi-flex and invested in haix blue mountain. If they are a decent pair name your price il have them.

How far away are you hahaha thanks for the welcome much appreciated also if you have any old equipment you are looking to get rid of give me a price and il see if we can come to some sort of agreement. Thanks The Tree-Fela

Thanks i also forgot to mention if anyone has any old gear they are getting rid of give me a shout as i am always on the lookout for equipment i need. Also thanks martyn for the welcome but if need a worker let me know hahaha willing to travel if its worth it. The Tree-Fela

HI all first post on this so be easy. Firstly am looking out for any odd days work when possible i am six months shy of completing my level 3 diploma in arboriculture. I have been working but its not of what expected as the firms are more ripping off than correctly completing a job also i feel i am now in the position where i need to start putting all skills and certifications to use and working with either a decent firm or a decent fella out there. I currently live in the crosby area of liverpool but am willing to travel where ever the work will take me as now i need the experience. I have got all certifications to become a groundsman and am in the proces of completing chainsaw from a rope and harness, sectional felling, and pruning and dismantling if anyone has any oppurtunities to show how good a worker i am or know of any vacancies please could i be informed. I know times are hard and this is a long shot because people already have there team setup but i thought it would be worth a try Thanks Andy:thumbup:
