[polexie]

Police officer for 8 years now. Before i worked as a gardener where i got my first Stihl. Before, i always helped my father with cutting firewood and taking down some trees on the property of friends.

Now i got some land where i can cut my own firewood because i heat my house with wood. The forrester marks the trees and i cut them down and haul them out with my Land Rover.

In my holidays i go to France, the Morvanne, where my friend , worked with him some years at the police, got a piece of land that provides him with firewood. Also his garden needs a lot of work, for a free holiday willling to do that!

Now i am in a position that i can work less at the police, 30 hours a week. i work some time full time and then i take some weeks of and go to France. Over there i met a Dutch couple who got a castle with 14 hectares of forrest what needs clearing and maintance. Now i am clearing a path for quad riding.
All the wood that comes out must be sawn and split for firewood because the whole castle is heated with wood.

This for free stay with food and everthing, travelling is payd for and i got a nice bonus when i leave.

So this is why i need my saws, got to many of 'm but what the heck!

This is my live right now, and i love it!!!!!!!!:chainsawguy: :rockn:

Polexie, that sounds like a dream come true. Cutting and splitting wood for a castle. While I think my home is my castle, and I never get tired of cutting wood. Your situation gives me envy.

i'll hop in this thread but seeing how most you guys dont like me it'll probably die soon after. lol

anyway

had to go to work after school didnt pan out the first time and it was quite obvious form the get go a structured indoor environment isnt neccessarily the right one for me.

after a season on a weed wacker i knew the lawn wasnt either.

i hopped on with a gooood tree company and dragged brush for 6 months before i was even allowed to start a saw or touch a rope. although in that time i did learn how to care for the saws and wrap rope and some knots.

well as you go, if you care about yourself, you try to improve and make more money with your new skills. obvious right? never settle?

needless to say bought a saddle, spikes, rope and some other stuff and started to make it known that i wanted to go up after almost 3 or 4 yrs on the ground. that was over 5 yrs ago now.

along the way i have lived through my mistakes (only one extremely scary moment) and learned many valuable lessons.

i have met some complete morons along the way that should have no right doing what they do and have also have met some extremely talented hardworking men who have helped make my skill set what it is. (i have yet to meet a working female arborist, would like to though)

i climb trees and whatever else the job calls for.

my primary tool is my 200T with the occasional handsaw.

no snips though, that is for the landscaper. lol did i mention i am not fond of ornamental pruning?

anyway if this thread dies you can blame me. its what i do. lol

Looks like you paid your dues with that company. Glad to see that you haven't been hurt. Keep up the good work.

I thought that too for avery short while, if you look up what an arborist is, you will find not only arborists, but a whole lot of people caring about their trees etc etc, it ain't all cutting stuff up mon
