  1. Like that, looks heavy
  2. It used to be about £120 to put lines back up, if brought down, which is alot cheaper than them coming out to take down and put back up. I supose you are doing half the job for them[emoji849]
  3. Really really like that, its exactly what i'm looking for.
  4. Good thing about leaving it like that Mick, is that its less likely to get nicked!!
  5. It is a woody plant so can be considered a tree.
  6. Very, very nice
  7. Clearing up the needles is half the fun aint it!!
  8. I think if it was all metric, it would make more sense, be easier to understand
  9. 50ft of ivy[emoji35] [emoji35] i would be leaving my rope installed.
  10. Linseed, 2 birds, 1 stone
  11. Practical forestry for the agent and surveyor is a great informative read and you can pick one up for a little under £30.
  12. Imagine lugging that up from rope and harness, i find a block bad enough ha
  13. Thats let the light in Mick
  14. That has always been a worry of mine.
  15. The Dorset Coppice Group
  16. Bet steering was light
  17. Sorry, am i right in thinking you have been working for your current employer for 10 yrs and he has not even put you through maintenance and cross cutting??
  18. Gob cut, back cut, stand clear, winch over.
  19. Can anybody recommend a good arboriculturalist in the Bournemouth/Poole area who maybe able to identify this? Thanks
  20. I have found a well dressed bowline or bowline on a bight always easy to undo. I used to do the stick trick but now just make sure my knots are tidy and don't have a problem.
  21. Wow, thats come on in 20 yrs
  22. Hi-line are always looking for staff and are based your way.
  23. Yes, it looks just like pine pitch canker. I was convinced it was until i read that there have not been any cases in UK. However it is spreading through Europe and is probably only a matter of time before it hits us. When/if it comes over it is thought it will hit the south east coast first and this tree is situated in Poole, Dorset!
  24. Got this very mature Monterey Pine and as you can see, 2 or 3 of the branches appear/are dying back. There is also alot of white sap leaking from the trunk. Does anybody have any idea what this might be and is it something to be concerned about. It has all the characteristics of pine pitch canker but from my reading, there have been no cases of this in Britain. Thanks in advance for any help at all with this.
