  1. Got to use my gear for the first time today !! Really enjoyed it, didn't get very adventurous just up and down low and slow etc. also got to use my silky tsuguri for the first time what an awesome saw ! Do I look the part ? Off to find some more trees tomorrow. Hopefully one with built in wifi so I can use the knots app ! Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App
  2. A very awkward job today two trees to be removed from a steep banking. The first half of the day was a rush to get all the brushwood down and away to the tip before it shut at 1, the rest of the day was delicately taking down the two stumps and logging everything up.

  16. The modern day duct tape indeed !!!
  17. Tree bicycle pictures.
  18. Today's job !! A tree that was deemed to be dangerous but the council refused permission to take down, it ended up snapping and performing a miracle by placing itself between two houses. The only damage was broken plant pots and a broken piece of glass on the balcony. . All the rubbish was taken to the tip and all the logs stayed on site. Jobs a good'n !!
  19. Does anybody own or use a singing rock timber || harness ? Looking for views on it as I have been looking at it for a while and I don't have the luxury of trying before I buy out here. If anyone has any other suggestions please bear in mind I am on a very tight budget.
  20. We use normal spike for some palms and bicycle for other. Also with a machete like tool.
  21. It is yes, a really cool piece of gear! No more pics at the moment next time we use them I'll be sure to get plenty !!
  22. it's not what you know..... 55% youth unemployment I believe the latest figure is Mallorca isn't as bad as anywhere else though because of the tourism.
