  1. Only time will tell. Off out for a climb tomorrow to try and get it adjusted properly. It felt right as soon as I put it on. Got a tree report on Tuesday and about 15 mature oak/beach to climb so that should be a good test Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App
  2. Just been to buy a harness and got told about a lad who fell out of a sequoia due to the clips opening put me right off
  3. Just been and got myself a Treemotion. I only wanted to replace my Butterfly with another but the buggers happened to have the tm's in so thought i'd try one on. Wish I hadn't

  10. High winds here. Just hoping I'm on the ground tomorrow if it carries on
  11. They look good
  12. Yep saw that straight away
  13. Not sure? It was a Shell fuel station, I was just the climber. Give your local NR depot a ring, I'm sure they'll sort you out. I think it also depends if there's a fence. I know they put a blue net fence up for us, but that wouldn't of been needed if one was already there
  14. I believe it's 3 meter from trackside. Did a line of connies about 3 week back and Network Rail sent a banksman. After the first day it was decided that he wasn't need as we was over said distance

    Eye Protection

    Well I've been using the steins for a week or so, and there great. Don't seem to mist up, although some warmer temps might change that. After wearing them I can highly recommend them. Very comfortable and it's the first set that I've been able to wear all day without realising I've got them on, apart from how bright everything is. Makes a gloomy day look good Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App
  16. Had one, and thought it was great. Only probs were a sloppy gear box, apart from that all was fine. Got pulled by VOSA once with a full chip box on the back and was well within limits, even though the springs were say different Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App
  17. Me and the mrs just had a good laugh at that Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App
  18. Just go in to a walking shop, they usually have the full range and will be able to tell you the exact one
  19. Nikwax do a cleaner for it. Not that much money eather
  20. Nice job fella Had to laugh at the lad trying to duck under the camera at the end
  21. Used it on iPhone today, and didn't like it. Had to angle the phone depending on where I wanted to look. Sure it wasn't like that last time I used it Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App
  22. Been cut twice now. First time not long out of college, cutting a tree a tree up which rolled and knocked saw out of my hands. Had to get my little finger surgically repaired, please note I had no gloves on. Second time was a cut to my middle finger which I got cut by a colleague as I picked a branch up this time had gloves and hardly got a scar

    Filing vice

    Does anyone know where I can get one of the Oregon chain vice from? The ones that you fix to the workbench and put the chain into once taken off the saw. Any ideas? Cheers
