I agree with what you say In the states there are different grades of cert fallers so thereby the instructors are in place for that. There are also wild land and wild fire certs too and if your working in that area they have to be up to date......they'll even check your kit before they let ya on to a job. The logging industry it really depends where who and for whom your working there are very few things that cover all states lol

Oh I agree there things all bout money these days and I do feel for the young guys as i'd guess very little funding there. I do worry that a skill set is gonna be lost I totally agree that there always has to be a compromise ......but hey I'll throw this one out there should apprenticeships not be pushed again ,.........but properly not just a gimmick???

Agree with the above........I'd suspect if he going for his first course he won't be running a 404

cool buddy just looked similar to the borer ......my mistake

Yep horses for courses I agree. I only got full wraps on my big saws ...... The only issue I have as such is folks should have a broader knowledge available at the training level if that makes sense??? I freely admit I know jack about tree surgery but I still think I can learn from it.
