    We've used mewps regularly,as said before theyre another tool in our box so why not use em if its increases safety,increases productivity and it more ergonomical. There seems to be a stigma attached to mewps like if you use a mewp your a p00f! I dont care what skyhuck says we use em when we can.

    Be interested if anyone comes up with something as ive scallop edged many many flower and shrub beds in my time,all by hand with a spade or half moon edger.

    Yeah chris at informed trees is another good training provider although chris doesnt do the training anymore more likely to be alan mcpherson or matt cooper who does the training/assesments on the small trees course

    Hi mate,ive done some training under chris white at treevolution and theyre a really good training provider. If its small tree felling course your intending to do it will probably be held at devilla forest in fife,just over the kincardine bridge. You could volunteer your services to some tree surgeons local to you,infact there was an advert on here recently for a central belt tree company looking for groundies. Be prepared for dragging branches to the chipper,rakin up cuttings and man glitter and being totally fuc#*d at the end of the day. Look at the employment section on this arbtalk site,failing that just phone round some local tree surgeons-some will have had this before so they could be pretty dubious about your commitment. Good luck

    I see the pseudonym thing cropping up a couple of times in this thread and id just like to remind folks that some of us with pseudonyms arent hiding behind a fake name,strategiclally waiting to pounce on others with horrible put downs and awful comments...i just liked stihlmadasever cause i was a stihl enthusiast at that time(im cured of that now) and it kinda flowed as a word. My profile with all my details are there for all and sunder to peruse at your leisure. Im sure i speak for many others too... Although there are some who i know will never identify themselves due to extreme views...not that i give a toss-to each his own and all that

    Welcome back... So is that you falling asleep in the right of the picture...?
  12. stihlmadasever
    Yeah mate..it just gives you more balance on longer laterals. Ideally less friction is better for ease of movement so 2 cambium savers (1 on each anchior point) or even 1 cambium saver on one anchor point and 2 carabiners (opposing gates) on a taped sling on the other anchor point.

    That was a picture i pulled off the internet ages ago so i could do the same thing with my own kit. Heres a picture of my own setup (At home obviously)
  14. stihlmadasever
    This was something i considered a while back when i first got my treemotion and nicked the bridge with a silky. I didnt bother using a secondary bridge in the end but if it makes you feel safer...why not. I dont see the need for a supplementary on limb walks but if your not getting a good work position u can go to using the other end of your rope in a V rig set up.
