Climber or Climbers wanted on the wirral peninsula.

I'm after a top end climber for 2 days a week (£200 a day) or a qualified, keen not on their phone, trainee for up to 5 days a week.

I'm also looking for groundies! 

My self and every company I know locally are crying out for decent workers. A good subby could make a happy life in this part of the world and never be short of work. 

Send me a text on 07455230854 if your interested! 

I got my ranger tipper from them, seemed alright and they drove it up to the Wirral for me

I had the trufflebugger one and after it failed it's LOLER i switched to the Ropeguide.

It's much better, gets stuck allot less due to the being chocked on ring instead of an eye in the rope.

Is much easier to adjust, even under load.

The retrieval clip is cleverly positioned so the cam opens as its being retrieved allowing slack into the system and making the un choking process much easier

Isn't the bottom one the old five pounds?

Nice post, my Mrs and I have a little boy of 16months and another on the way. We're both 24. Were desperate to get on a plane out of here but are waiting till we've bought a house that we can rent out while we're away so we have something to fall back on with the kids. Getting a mortgage when your self employed isn't as simple as I first thought it might be.

I'm a freelance climber for 90% of the time starting to get a steady trickle of my own stuff coming in. It's hard not to commit to setting myself up properly and buying chipper. I just know that if a do I'll never be able to leave, the better money, my passion for tree work and sense of pride in a job well done can be an addictive combination.

Just know that if we don't leave in the next 2-3 years we never will, she'd go mental and climbing those big trees in oz, nz and Canada has been a dream of mine since the beginning.

You just keep posting those vids reg, keep the dream alive in my head for me, at least for now;)

On the way home from the hospital I stopped off to quote a job, Mrs wasn't happy about it mind

Their always like that just leave it

Alright guys, just wondering on elms properties in relation to a gate post, will it rot quick on the end stuck in the ground? How about if I treat it and stick it in a bag? Cheers, ed

However say you where doing a reduction over a fancy patio and had a novice Groundie, inexperienced in wraps, you could run your lowering line through a main central pully and then use this as a redirect that you move about with you and set the wraps each time dependent on the size of Limb being removed without having to worry about him/her getting dragged into the tree or stopping them dead

Ok, so what about when the limb doesn't need any wraps at all, it ends up just hanging there with too much friction to drop.

Then you should have cut n chuked it you big girl i can see the point but if I really needed in tree friction I'd rather save my money and just natural crotch it

Interesting stuff, I spend a fair bit of time down in southern Italy as my

Mrs 's mum and dad have a place down their right in the olive groves.

These guys seem to really hammer the trees down their, they remove pretty much all the crown, they rake all the leaves/dust up and then go along with a roller and compact all the soil underneath so it's rock hard and weeds don't grow and continue this process almost yearly, doing the crowns on say a 5 year rotation. I've always thought that surely all of these trees must be in a pretty weakened condition and vulnerable to an issue like this

Alright guys,

Im looking for a climber for a mate of mine. I've been climbing for him for about 2 years, 1 to 3 days a week but a massive influx of work has meant i can't keep climbing for him.

He's sound bloke, very easy to get along with and the days are never that difficult. He over estimates jobs if anything and the work pace is generally very relaxed.

He's looking for half decent climber, doesn't have to be super experienced with big rigging but someone who can get up do the job and not make a pigs ear of it. Might suit someone who's good but not been out of collage that long.

Rates of pay are negotiable depending on abilities and as always a tow licence would be nice but not necessary

Work is usually on the Wirral with the odd trip over to Liverpool every now and then.

Pm me for more intimation or call or txt Justin on 07817 596665

I'm a subby climber with a grcs, i wouldn't say I get jobs because of it. It does make my day allot easier though and if I'm working for a company where I don't trust the lads on the ground or their unfamiliar with this kind of kit then I bring my own groundie.

My day rates gone up since I got it and it's definitely paid for itself and all the other rigging tackle I've got.

I bought it just over a year ago.

All the rigging kit in the world wont help you make money without the skills to go along with it mind;)

Fiskars in b&q, 45 quid and much better

Logo 1 gets my vote

Isn't the transfer box a common issue on these?

Thought this was interesting Trees, regardless of size, all break at the same wind speed. Here?s why. | Science | AAAS

I'll take you up on that jay harris's Prams looking a little shabby I'll be the bell of the ball pushing him round asda in that!

I'd pay your climber first jay 😜

Ace thread, you've got to love a mog

How come you folks don't want to change from lead shot then?

Did this myself only a few weeks ago, bad night with the baby and long day in work was my excuse, hope they get It sorted. left about a quarter of a tank full in mine but had no problems just kept topping up it up. The fumes when syphoning don't half make your head spin!

Did you poison ivy have a yellow fleck running through it? If it didn't then it's the non c.e. Marked version, a very good rope and hard to beat due to it being pretty much static and super smooth on the zig zag however it can't pass loler as it has no c.e. Cougar blue is a cracking rope but I think it's 11mm not 11.7 so too narrow for a zig zag technically and also is non c.e. Marked. Blue tong is a dreadful rope in my opinion and mine will soon be retired to the pull rope department. Tachyon has changed recently, if you compare the rope now to the one on sale 18 months ago you'll see it's narrower and a tighter weave, I've not used this new version yet but I hear it flows like a dream on the zig zag.

It's all personal preference really, although I mainly climb on cougar blue I need a c.e. Marked loler able rope to run along side it and my preference would be tachyon at the moment

Only 36 DD I'm afraid. Of course I don't rejoice in death; you are twisting what I'm saying. All I'm saying is Watch Out! Don't be so surprised if countless Muslims decide to run with it. Plenty of non-extremists were out celebrating 9/11.

Oh so you don't rejoice in death but the Muslim community do? Your a massive tit

I don't reckon. Quietly they love it.

Just like you quietly love it when a boat load of refugee kids drowns trying to escape Syria? Your a massive tit
