[Archive] Aids to working conifer thinnings

This booklet is intended as a guide to some items of equipment which may not be widely known, and particularly to some which have been developed only in the past few years. The purpose of these tools is mainly to make work easier — reducing the effort involved or making operations quicker. Many are intended to eliminate or ease heavy lifting with its attendant risks. Others make it possible for one man to do a job which otherwise requires two. The aims in compiling this booklet have been:

to show what equipment has been produced,
to show what the equipment will do, and
to show where and when the equipment can be of value.
