I know its a horrible thing to do but after the initial OMG i started laughing a lot!!

Honestly its amazing, Light and easy to carry over your shoulder once a ropes through it. We had it bouncing off stumps, stems and log stacks and when it got stuck it flexed but never cracked. Since that job ive winched some 40ft black pines down a garden, Now without it i could of been...

Horrid, stunk and the water was around -6 to -8 BUT very much a good laugh when someone either fell over or got stuck and had to be winched out. Boat to work rocked though.

Its for a piling contract we won, 640 6m alder poles and 300 2m poles for pining. Its the first large scale project in the UK to use traditional alder poles over pine since 1834

Just a quick video of a few jobs i did on the back end of 2012 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YpVNBEiLoAE

Yeah western red cedar, its called a dog tooth back cut. Taught at colleges to avoid the risk of barber chair, personally i use split level but Tom has only been out of college for a bit so i let him do what hes been taught rather than tell him different ways and he makes a hash of it.

I put together some footage off a job a while back, shows me using the swedish cut on the stem sections http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-Ml5aVtKh3Q&feature=youtu.be

I do have his DVDs but when i get the chance to watch TV i get 5mins in and the wifes like WTF!! ARBPORN!! I do really need to watch through them.

The reason why i cut lower on the stem sections that are evenly balanced is because its less likely to take the saw with it, i'll put together another video this weekend hopefully of a thuja we did a while back. Also ive been playing with the face depth to try and get the timber to hit the...

Its called a Swedish cut, used a lot for chogging stems down in europe, removes a heck of a lot energy used to move timber sections with the normal step cut way. this way you can aim and drop it of with ease. Once you have a go you might be kicking yourself for having not used it before (i did...

Just a bit of left over footage from the year, mainly testing out new filming rigs and stuff. Hope you enjoy. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=upEdg2D2zfw

Cheers, Theres another, better one in the pipeline. BUT with the Uk the weather is normally quite poor and filming in low light is terrible. Also we dont have huge open trees like in AUS so struggle to find anything to compete on the tree size of Frictionhitchery and Ropewrenchery. Thanks...

Cheers everyone, There was me thinking only Norfolk, and Netherlands were flat. ;) It was a great climb, there was a clear section of around 30ft where the tree had a few tear outs. The tree is on the remains of an old Stately home which was a WWII spitfire base and the owner had some pictures...

We had a play in this Cedar on Saturday, great fun had and yes norfolk is that flat. The windmills are around 13miles away and the cathedral is around 9miles away. Anyway the music most of you are probably going to hate, so i recommend putting the sound on mute and playing a cd of your choice...

Very cool, Hollywood style dust!!
