Does he smash up hotel rooms?

I wondered who would be first. 😀😀

Nice work. You made it look easy.

We'll all be Amish by then 🙂

Now you're talking my language Paul! Mad Max1 was an amazing ground breaking film (even featured Lizzie from Prisoner Cell Block H? 😃). Mad Max 2 was the ultimate motorised western. 3 was a bit too commercial for my liking. Went to see Fury Road at the pictures and really enjoyed it. Tom Hardy did a great job as usual.

As you can see it was a big tree with very little sound wood keeping it upright.

Just posting this to acknowledge a job well done by Rob Wells (Riggerbear) The tree was a decayed black poplar that needed dismantling in a tight spot. A few other firms had declined to do the job because of the poor condition of the tree. With the help of Rob's skills and experience we were able to quote and win the job. The pictures speak for themselves. Can highly recommend Rob's services. Very capable and efficient climber. Friendly and hard working. Nice one Rob! 🙂 [ATTACH]203459[/ATTACH][ATTACH]203460[/ATTACH][ATTACH]203461[/ATTACH][ATTACH]203462[/ATTACH][ATTACH]203463[/ATTACH]

Good to hear a happy outcome for a change. It's quite depressing to hear so many instances where the police are unable or unwilling to help.

Another good video Ben. Thanks for sharing it. Looked like a good example of SRT saving time and effort.

A few from an oak pollard. Quite a bit of rigging involved as the tree was spread over 2 lanes, 4 gardens, 3 sheds and fences.. Not the nicest thing to do to an oak but it had outgrown its situation. But better than complete removal.

Am 51 this year and still really enjoy it. I'd say go for it. It sounds like it would be right up your street.

I started climbing (properly) at 48

Stunning pics. Especially like how the drone shots capture the whole tree.

He subs out part time to the Samaritans.

I always ask. (Unless I did the quote and notice that the hygiene levels are lacking)

Nice harness....

try allotments and horse stables where they have sand -school riding areas.

You speak for yourself Will, I'm only 50! 🙂

Any pics Steve ?

Interesting dilemma. I'd do some research with the manufacturer and see if I could get their data. If I could establish MBS, SWL , WLL values, and had info on their testing results, I could ask the question to the legislators here in the UK; 1) having done some research, could I legally certify this bit of kit "safe to use"? 2) in the event of equipment failing, would my professional indemnity policy still cover me (or would they use the CE mark or lack of it to nullify my policy?) 3). Could I successfully defend my decision in a court of law? I'd really have to fall in love with SRT to spend that much on a friction device!!

How much is a bulldog bone? Roughly, and do they have a CE mark?
-
I did the opposite on mine. Passed the theory and made a safety critical error on the practical. Passed the second time around no problem. It's remarkable how expiry dates and guidelines change on different items of kit vary from source to source. All the best with your re-sit 🙂

Or an ivy infested holly for me.
