Hi all, hoping someone can help identify this bracket. Has been on a walnut for a good few years, grows yearly according to client. Tree in good condition, stem solid. Can’t seem to identify it, hoping someone here may know! Thanks, I know it’s not the best photo.

Hi. We are looking for a groundsman/ second climber for our small company based in Chelmsford, Essex. We’re passionate about the industry and look after those who work with us. We’re looking for someone who shares the same values and brings a solid work ethic and reliability to the team. Basic NPTC certs and drivers license would be ideal. Climbing certs and some climbing experience is a bonus, we encourage learning and progression on the job. We get a range of work - domestic/ commercial. Job would be initially on a sub-contract basis (4/5 days a week) with a view to moving to PAYE if you work well with us! Good guys are hard to come by, so more than happy to pay over the going rate for someone who ticks the box - get in touch! Call or message Ben on 07766660818 to discuss further or if you have any questions.

Will have a look, thanks. Trouble is I’d like to find something online, as I’d be doing alongside running a business and it’d be hard to commit to travelling regularly outside work hours.

Thanks Mark, currently I’ve just finished ISA cert Arb which was a breeze, have been in the industry for a fair while now but think level 5 or 6 might be too much too soon?

Hi all, Has anyone completed the Level 4 Arb Diploma?Have been looking at it on Training Tree and by all accounts it can be done completely online now. I believe it’s replaced the old Tech Cert? Interested to see how people have found it, managed to fit around work etc? Thanks

Slowed right down to a drip for us too. Change of restrictions bound to have a knock on effect as things open up - well that’s hopefully what it is. Few friends of mine not getting much come through either, so your not alone!

Also, here is a photo of one of the team coming to grips with the machine.

We’ve got an Avant 423 with the forks/ grab attachment. Works well for brash and logs but do find it can be quite heavy. Game changer for us though as it speeds jobs right up.

Still looking!

Hi guys, As above looking for a supplier of artic (or similar) loads of green hardwood. Will be processed for firewood. I’m sure someone on here will have a contact. We are Essex based. Cheers.

Nail on the head there!
