im an idiot but i cant seem to find out information on spectating, location ticket purchase etc... facebook page doesnt look to be much help

Hi Dervish, i have been interested in using epoxy resin as a finish for a long time but cant seem to find anywhere to buy it or in fact what it is i need, they're always american or european videos. any thoughts? cheers

the guy i was working for today told me his son is on a big job clearing large old oaks to make way for a new road, shame enough in itself, however its all being chipped as that is the highest value for it apparently?...

dream job

also with regards to the carving bar, i nearly bought one for my 201 but decided against it as i know i will end up running it into the ground and its my money maker, perhaps i should pick up a little saw, 170 perhaps?

well thanks for all the replies chaps, useful info indeed. I notice i forgot to post the link to the tools i was taking about ( Power Carving Kits | King Arthur's Tools ) So a resounding dont do it then. Fair enough. wisewood thats what my hand looks like today from slipping whilst sharpening my saw, you know its amazing we spend all day doing extremely dangerous things and my recent injury is pathetic: hand cut from sharpening, jarred knee slipping off the trailer, cut eyebrow walking into van door, bruised arse slipping on wet decking... glad there havent been any serious ones though, fingers crossed. Devilish carving i would post a picture if i was happy with them but alas they are a little rough around the edges ill get to it .

Thought id give chainsaw carving a go due to all the big timber ive had recently. been interested a long time and had a few goes so far, mushrooms and bits to get a feel. though watching endless clips and series on the subject i have started looking for grinding tools for a 4" grinder like these king ones i found. So i am asking swhere i might source these things in england and looking for any insiders info or tips. heres hoping your all feeling friendly, cheers. Ryan

right well i like the sound of this one.

well thanks a lot to all. didn't expect such a wealth of informative replays. fr johnes can have some more of my money this weekend.

anyone point me toward a chainsaw trouser review thread? gotta get a set for college dont want to spend more then £100 if possible. thanks

i wouldn't want a stoner working with me, as far as I'm concerned this job requires full attention at all times for the safety of those around you. what you do in your spare time is up to you as long as you are fit to work but keeping an eye out at quiet times on the ground is so important, the chap i climb for is far more experienced than me and it makes such a difference to have experience on the ground.

I was hoping to scare the pants off my mother by getting hold of a helmet camera to document some arial action at work but not quite sure where to start looking. a friend mentioned a company called gopro. any thoughts?
