  1. I would love to climb it!
  2. I think you were right to not finish the job without taking the necessary precautions and your employer shouldn't expect the Job to be done without them. Sorry for the doubt about the lines, just hard to see from the picture. Hope you stick to your guns and opt for the safe and correct option Sent from my iPad using Arbtalk mobile app

  13. Climb the tree as quick as! Sent from my iPad using Arbtalk mobile app
  14. Hi I've been a climber for 5 years and college for 3, always told in college never to use a top handle on the ground as it's 'dangerous' but IMO it's only as dangerous as the user. I think they say it to stop people being complacent and using it with one hand. For me the top handle is the best ground saw there is, it's lightweight and quick for cutting that bloody branch that doesn't fit in the chipper also good for little prunes just so long as it's used as it should be Sent from my iPad using Arbtalk mobile app
  15. Try holm oak it's an extremely hard wood and just as heavy if not heavier than beech also you can normally get a real nice redish coloration in the heart wood, I have a big cheese in my room sanded up and varnished as an ornament, looks great Sent from my iPad using Arbtalk mobile app
  16. Hi Jon it's a Rayburn, similar to the AGA really with a large hot plate and 2 ovens Sent from my iPad using Arbtalk mobile app
  17. Yes I have as I need it for cooking and hot water as well as the heating, I could cry at how much wood I have to split for it but I guess I'm glad I'm an arborist or I would be bankrupt lol Sent from my iPad using Arbtalk mobile app

  21. I take it you had to tie your rope off at the top? In that case your hitch would still work without the need of the figure8 wouldn't it?
  22. I worked in NZ for a year and all they had were steel toe caps

    Velcro geckos for me used others but seemed to restrict blood flow in my feet, geckos perfect would get another set if needed
