    Canadian arborist looking to climb some Eucalyptus regnans

    Where in Canada are you from? I live in British Columbia now but I'm from Geelong in Victoria and will be flying back for a holiday on the 16th of February till 4th of march. I cut my climbing teeth here in Canada and would love to climb a big mountain ash. The ada tree is a cool tree to check...

    Sherriltree, thanks

    I wish i had a local dealer. We ordered 2 polesaw kits from a canadian dealer. 10 weeks and they should be here... I like to support local business but I'm sure tree stuff could have delivered the same thing in under a week and cheaper even considering the exchange rate now. Ill will have to...

    Pine branch isolation

    I get called a wuss every time i set a line in first on a removal. Ive tried tying in twice before every cut but that feels slower to me than already having a line in. Plus the guys i work with seem to think wire cores are chainsaw proof.

    Dog or dinosaur?

    My workplace are dinosaurs. our lead climber is the only guy to knot have a block. He says its one more thing that could fail and there is no telling him otherwise. But i have learnt a lot and he is a guru.

    first block/pulley purchase

    We have an old block at work that i think is cmi. Its looks the same but i hate how opening it you now have the bolt and spacer as two separate parts to drop with wet gloves in the snow...

    New Climb Right aluminum spurs

    l sharpened them by hand , not a drastic shape change . Someone also told me they needed a heavy sharpening right out of the box too. I haven't done a removal since but ill report on how or if there was any gains to this sharpening. If not i think tree stuff might be receiving an order, might...

    New Climb Right aluminum spurs

    Wish i had seen this thread earlier. I just spent ages sharpening my gaffes into a different shape. My old ones worked on spars but were just brutal on any deciduous trees that you weren't stomping the spur into.

    Wood chips to chip mulch

    The place we used to at had a fire, the guy there told me they would start when rounds of wood or branches got mixed in and created air pockets in the pile. This pile was about 3/4 of a football field and 20ft high.

    Rock exotica transporter

    Yeah I'll be waiting for the Canadian dollar to go up a bit.

    Wood chips to chip mulch

    yep. $225 was the last fee I paid. It's crazy, we take em to the mill now but they don't like any rake up in there.

    Rock exotica transporter

    I just snapped another caritool. I would pay $60 to never have to replace my saw holder again.

    Wood chips to chip mulch

    Its impossible to get rid of chips where i live. We did have a sweet deal with a local guy that would take all our chips but that pile caught fire last summer. We can occasionally drop it off at orchards but most of the time it costs us $100 a ton to dump.

    first block/pulley purchase

    That is a sweet block too. And the price is a bit better. Im over natural crouching and just bought a new 14mm stable braid for the big stuff. I wonder how useful that swivel on the omni would be?

    first block/pulley purchase

    I know it says 13mm rope only on the side of the 2.6, do you reckon you could squeeze a 14mm through it without to many dramas?
  17. Kris Anderson

    first block/pulley purchase

    That sure is a sexy block, the 2.6 is what im leaning towards. The only biners i use are from Rock Exotica and i love em. With the rigging rings do you ever find you are limited by not being able to attach rope mid line? I will probably end up buying all three eventually any way just wanted to...

    first block/pulley purchase

    Hey buzzers, I need an all round block,pulley or ring. Dont know what to get. I need something that can work from 11mm -14mm rope. Its mainly for light to medium rigging. Do i go abr ring, pinto , or omni? Which size or any other options?

    Boot lace ilets on Pfanner Zermatt GTX

    That's how i tie mine. I didn't use that eyelet at first but we did a massive job on a steep hillside and found it stopped my toes ramming into the toe cap going down hill.
