Ha ha oh dear there was nothing arsey about what i said and on the full man comment I was referring to myself when I don't train I feel half the man it's a feeling that after years of training you feel great when u do and terrible if u don't

I would rather be a full man for a shorter life than half a man for a longer one [emoji6] oh and on the technical dead trees over targets I am well practised and I haven't had to say in twenty sorry I am to heavy for this one [emoji23] and on the big dogs front have you noticed how relaxed and content they are because they don't suffer from small dog syndrome [emoji16]

I can climb take down a tree and work on the ground considerably faster than most of the guys I have worked with being big has nothing to do with it and as for being to muscular it's a bit like saying some one is to rich there is no such thing big is best [emoji41] 190kg close grip

I no it's easier said than done mate but I try my hardest to only think about the tree and the job in hand while u are cutting and climbing the only saw related accident I have had in twenty years was when my mind was on my other half we had a really bad argument end she said she was leaving and taking my little girl with her I had finished the tree I was reducing and when doing the last cut I one handed the saw not thinking wear my left hand was and followed through and got the back if my left hand the cut looked much worse than it was but I learned that day to try my best to not take distractions going in my head up the tree with me hope u heal quick mate

Nice vid mate good work please please get some sort of friction bollard or capstone your life would be so much easier wraps round a tree for big trees like that is just time consuming and not as controlled no matter how good the lad is at running the ropes

What do you use to tie off your rigging blocks?
bigtreedon replied to Top Cat's topic in Rigging and roping
Cow hitch then timber hitch when there isn't enough rope left to tie a cow hitch I like this way cos as Joe said no need to take rigging rope out of block every time -
Yes it was priced to rig down mate

I personally just prefer the look of the high top which is what is required for the bigger air filter but yea bigger air filter can't hurt performance am sure i am sure there is a saw boffin on hear that will tell u in our climate it's not necessary but it's aesthetically pleasing so I prefer it I got mine in Germany don't think u would be able to import it for 600 I actually paid 700 total cos got some chains and a nice Japanese bar as well Sent from my SM-G930F using Arbtalk mobile app
