    New pull start handles

    When I started in this gig in 95 I worked for a bit of a ragtag company, saws in those days were a bit less reliable (or so it seemed to me) I remember a climber throwing a non-starting 020t out of the tree onto the ground where it broke apart a bit, rendering it useless. I could not understand...

    New pull start handles

    Good to hear the handles work. As for starting, 3 or so attempts in the traditional ’one hand on the handle, one hand on the pull starter’ Then I’ll drop start the bastard.

    Contract climber rate?

    In the UK, it’s the original contractor’s responsibility/insurance. What if there’s a dispute over whether the climber feels the groundsman (employed by the main contractor) is responsible? If the freelance climber puts a hole in the roof then all the main contractor can do is not hire that guy...

    Contract climber rate?

    Contract climber rate?

    You don’t need liability insurance, it’s on him. As for how much he made on the job, it’s irrelevant ‘picker don’t ask the price of cotton’

    I should qualify, that isn’t using a properly modded exhaust, just me and a 1/2 inch drill getting medieval!

    Helmet question

    I have a protos, partly because the lad has one and it made the fitting of comms a bit easier. Very expensive but I keep mine in a box in the cab rather than rattling around in the back of the van, so should last a good while. They’re heavy so the odd day I will wear the old husky forestry...
