I had to trim some branches around power lines yesterday about 8 mtrs up. Well out of range of my ladder. The saws on a pole at bunnings were all around 200 bucks , so me being a tight arse bought a $4 pruning saw and cloth tapped it to the top of and old one piece mast I had lying around . For $4 thought it was worth a try.
10mins later job done worked an absolute treat.

Then noticed at the local yacht club some of the cat sailors were using the tops of masts as poles for their asymmetrical spinnakers.

Got me thinking any other uses ?
