Thanks Fairfield, I only posted it because I though others might find it interesting. I'm not trying to teach anyone anything. Second tie in isn't mandatory here in BC. I use a 91 strand 5/8th cable as my lanyard. I've never used a second tie for bucking and never will. Been doing this for 20 years (in July) now and have never seriously injured myself, never injured anyone else, and have never had an insurance or WC claim, but I guess I'm just lucky.
For those who want to criticize, until I see some of your work, you're just an armchair arborist, how can I take you seriously?
