  1. Sure! While taking these photos, I see I also had to drill a new hole for the chain tension ? (I never turn the bar, hence only one new hole for the oil and tension)
  2. Its the original spur 7. It comes with 12", but I use 14" 80% of the time. I use the same bar/chain on my MS201, thats why I use the Stihl bar. (And the Stihl chain cuts better) ? Just had to make a new hole for the oil.
  3. Yes, its the 3/8 1,1 mm, 14". Think this cuts better than Husqvarnas 1,1 mm that comes with the saw originally.
  4. Thanks! I can highly recommend the husky T535i XP! This was the second job using the new T535i, I've been using the T536 since 2014. Same, same, but slightly different ?
  5. Climbed this big lime tree last october. Battery, petrol and crane made my day
  6. Yes, he was doing a great job on this one!
  7. Yup, s*it happens ? As you can see on the picture, small branches has broken several tiles over the last years, so the owner had a pile of new ones waiting ?
  8. Had to do some heavy rigging on this one ?
  9. Yeah, I know. But I had to try
  10. Uh, have never thought about that actually. I mostly do small jobs (1 day) and often climb till lunch, and do groundswork after. But I'll keep it in mind, one error a day is enough, smart to quit then! Climb safe!
  11. Exactly. Fingers wouldn't listen. Idiots!
  12. Thanks. The motto must be laugh and learn
  13. Yep, luckily that didn't happen. I had been pruning that oak for over 40 minutes before i recognized the strap was not fastened
  14. Well, I have a few more clips, they will be included in Part 2 :-) I would have much more fails to pick from if the camera was always on....
  15. Made this fail compilation from jobs during the past years. Nothing really serious, but may be fun to watch...
  16. Thanks! I think I brought about 15 pairs of slings/biners in the tree that day, and had 2 left when I was done with the speedline Here's a picture from another speedline job taken after a couple of branches.
  17. Thanks! I had telephonelines and unisolated powerlines close to the tree. The two lower branches were stretching over these and would get stuck in them if I just rigged them down. (And they where to low to use the speedline.) Also, branches from another large pine close by made it difficult to lower branches stright down. I found the easiest way was to walk out on these limbs so that I could throw pieces down by hand. And to do this, I had to have my anchor point high up in the nearby pine. Therefore, I took these on my way down, when I was done using the speedline and still having the anchor point in place. (Sorry for my English, it is much easier to explain this in Norwegian )
  18. When limbing I always use my tophandle T536. Need and comfort before safety
