Morning all, Rain here. Day pottering in shed.
-
Morning all, Rain overnight here too. Overcast but dry hopefully. Finishing off yesterday’s lime lopping.
-
Morning all, Slight frost here. Using mewp to take crown off a lime today, in a farmyard. The farmer does not believe in standing on the forks of the load all with a chainsaw. Wise man.
-
Morning all, As Doug says, rain is coming. Let’s hope it doesn’t outstay its welcome.
-
The farm shop along the road from us sells "Farm Reared Beef". I thought it grew in polystyrene trays in fridges.
-
Morning all, Dead wooding a sweet chestnut this morning then in the garden at home. Have a good weekend.
-
Morning all, Semi lazy day at home for me today. Hopefully be allowed to spend some time setting mewp up repeatedly to see if leg sensor problem properly sorted.
-
Morning all, Looking at a small job, then flail mowing, then two more jobs to look at. Last one is large tree to fell, exit through pedestrian door of rear of garage. Sounds like a case for difficult extraction surcharge if ever there was one.
-
I always take my climbing rope or at least a throwline up with me, so I can pull climbing rope up. I would sooner lower myself from the basket than have to wait a long time to be got down.
-
Morning all, Yet another fine day ahead. I had a problem with the leg sensors on my 2 yr old MEWP on Monday and had to ring CMC for advice. I have to say that the response from Pete Losely was excellent, so thumbs up for them.
-
The trusty Fairey PTO winch on the Series 3 did the job today, with the tracked MEWP as a backup. Looks a bit like kindergarten alongside what some of you get up to but it keeps me active. Wardle pine winching over.mp4

With my previous MEWP we often had two men in the basket, but with my new one it gives brilliant outreach, but no so good for two men's weight a long way out. I have done loads of rigging from my MEWPS, but sometimes you just have to cut and throw - even when proficient, rigging takes time to get the rope back up etc. Horses for courses I guess.

Morning all, Another beautiful day. Not in Doug’s league, but winching over a large pine using 1975 Land Rover with PTO winch and tracked chipper helping. No electronics, yeah!

Advice on removing an old metal piece on a tree

That sounded like we we heading for a Dirty Harry one liner for a moment. -
Morning all, Frost on the windscreens to clear then hitch up and go. Another beautiful day. Enjoy and be safe.
