Hi all I just wanted to know the name of the type of rope system i use as i never can remember. I use 2 main ropes each generally on 2 separate anchor points The rope goes around the union and back to my harness. I use this on both ropes. Am i right in saying that it is a MRS? Whatever this system is called am i able to use an ascending device on this particular climbing style. This was also the way i learnt on my courses . Many thanks Aaron

Thanks all. Just wanted to see what most of your thoughts were . As the other stem is part of the base i wasnt sure if that one would be compromised aswell. I have never done 1 with a base like that so i was unsure.

Hi all I have a potential Ash removal job that im quoting for. The tree is around 18-20 m tall and aprox 2/2.5ft near the base . on the base of one of the stems there is dead wood roughly an eigth to a quater of the stem, My question: Would this be safe to climb and work on with some small rigging or would a mewp be best. I dint have tickets for a mewp so if this is the case i wouldn't take it on i have attached some photos. Tia

Hi all I have a stihl ht135 extendable pole saw . I got it trapped the other day, and the extension pole came out . I slid it back in and now the chain only works when its not extended as soon as you extend the pole the chain stops . Engine still works and throttle ect just no chain response. Any help or ideas as i dont want to break any more . Thankyou Aaron

Hi all I recently purchased the ISC TRIPLE ACTION SNAP LOCK CARABINER with swivel . How do you attach work positioner lanyard to it my lanyard has 2 spliced ends for ref. I learnt with the larksfoot and prusik onto main line so im not sure how else to connect to my lanyard. Any help is much appreciated. Aaron

Thanks all. Thats what i was thinking. Looking online they are going for anything from £9-15000 with 10grand being the most common price. But that's without the arb back. Good to know other people's thoughts Thankyou

Hi all , ihave been looking at a 2017 Nissan cabstar 3.0 nt400 with around 85000 miles . it has had a new arb back installed . my question was to anyone who has experience in prices for trade vans. The place that is selling it has it up for 25,000 + vat (30,000) which seems to me alot of money for the age ect I havnt been to see the van yet as is 3 hours away so no idea on engine quality Is this expensive for what it is and what would you think a good price is ? Any thoughts on this would be a great help. Thankyou Aaron
