Hitch climber with murderous intentions?
Mr Oz replied to Chainsaw wielding monkey's topic in Climbers talk

One more day to go for your raffle tickets
Mr Oz replied to Steve Bullman's topic in Arbtalk Christmas Charity Raffle 2014
got an other two:thumbup: Come on lads/lasses one last push:thumbup1: -
haha.thats what I keep saying cant get to crown to do the work:laugh1:

I agree Mr.Squirrel. Everyone has their own choice of completing work but decision is usually effected by other factors such as time,cost etc..My question was that even though I have option to use MEWP I prefer to climb in most cases but ive been put pressure by H&S to use MEWP. Btw I been using mewp for 2-3 years and feel completely comfortable with it. Our H&S is convinced that climbing is very very dangerous
-
Our H&S officer recently been trying his best to minimise tree climbing if not scrap it.he knows himself its impossible to do that because of cost,time etc...he wants me to use MEWP where ever we can but even though I don't mind using MEWP for some jobs I prefer climbing because I feel like im in control of the situation rather a machine.i feel like ive been pushed into using something im not entirely happy so what you guys think about what I should do and how I should explain it and something else I d like to know. I cant find much info about it. does anyone know updated accident and fatality rates of MEWP and climbing?

someone told me a much quicker way to rig but is it safe?
Mr Oz replied to samiad's topic in Rigging and roping
slings are your answer mate like Tom D says their much easier ,quicker and safer option to knots. -
sorry to hear that mate i know how frustrating it can be.i might connect 240v to toolbox in shed to watch them doing n irish dance in there if they get in.
