  3. From your pic I'd say Lime due to all of the epicormic growth at the bottom. Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk
  4. How have you got on John? Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk
  5. Wheel bearing maybe. Jack it up and spin front n/s wheel also grab it try to move forward and backwards to check for play. Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk

  7. I have 540 v2 it's excellent IMO, just a quick one though due to auto tune when you first run it there is a process to follow and it took a few tanks of fuel to hit the sweet spot but mine runs awesome all of the time now. Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk

    Bank mowers ?

    Can you not rent a metrac with a flail on? Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk
  9. Great tip! I think if you concentrate on thought and efficiency speed comes along naturally if you concentrate on speed you become flustered and end up being slow. The best climber I have seen for example sends everything down pointing the right way to be dragged and chipped and works around being conscious of his groundies and the speed of that TEAM is an awe to watch. If your cutting and dropping at 100mph you inevitably have to wait for your groundies to unpick a large pile of wood and chip it so it takes a lot longer to complete the job.

  11. Suppose sometimes a job is not worth the hassle! Cheers for replying. Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk
  12. How did the pop job go and what method did you decide on? Thanks Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk
  13. I use a walk behind driven flail, amazing bit of kit and it destroys anything in its path. Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk
  14. Why? Also by you voting leave are you not making Scotland a smaller place? Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk
  15. If Krankie gets her way for another Scottish independence referendum, will you vote stay in UK or leave? Genuine question to all resident Scots really to gauge what the general Scottish mood is from normal people rather than from media or politicians. Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk
  16. I have the ZZ and love it, I use it on every climb it makes climbing a lot more efficient. My mate has the SJ3 he likes it but only uses it on big trees I'm yet to have a go so can only really comment on ZZ and tbh when it needs replacing it will be with another ZZ.

  19. Haha badmin!! Not heard that phrase for a few years!! Good job that's not my desk. How you doing Shaun? Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk
  20. Nice Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk
  21. Yes, at home with that set up now. I didn't like my ZZ before I tried that for the same reasons as you with your SJ. I love it with that simple adjustment. Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk
  22. You got any pics of your haas set up? Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk
  23. His problem is self tending pulling from underneath and through gets rid of that problem. That was my train of thought anyway. Also £20-£25 for and extra krab and strop to try that method beats £300ish + £150ish for a new harness and rope I'd be pissed if I bought a new harness and rope and it self tended no better haha.

  25. Can you not add another krab and 20mm strop from your bridge to SJ so you are pulling underneath and through? It's how I use my ZZ, find it far comfier and easier to use in this set up. Think I posted a pic on here of the setup I'll try and find it. Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk
