    I have always wondered what the health issues are with welding though i would think with modern masks and breathing aids it would be limited. I remember years ago when i worked on demolition and I had the chance to be taught oxytetracycline burning but declined as every so often the burners had to have blood tests to see if there was lead in the blood due to fumes breathed in. 

    Who did ya work for on demo mate  ,, our paths must have crossed  at some point

    Know acouple lads been hit by reds , problem is with reds is there not as forgiving as harris hawks so some lads go from a Harris to a red and end up getting footed , harris hawk are very forgiving around there weight , red tails arnt , not saying that's the case with your mate tho , sometimes even experienced falconers get tagged by them, old guy I know got more scars on his arms and face of birds than he has hairs lol

    I think that's why they gave up on them mate. 

    Knew a kid from  Hoyland, had a red tail ,had it a couple  of seasons, one day he was calling it back from  a mist slip ,glove up, piece of meat in hand, totally ignored the fist and latched on to the side of his face ,,  made a right  mess  ,was very  lucky not to lose his eye

    its ok if you've only got 1, 2 or 3. When you get a small pack, things can escalate quickly. Also how do you give commands a 200m on a windy day? Any way who said shock? It's an electric training collar that you can use for commands at distance.

    What sort of training have you done?

    You  seem to know  everything  ,,don't ya ,, prick

    Yeah, been having a bit of gyp around my left elbow and shoulder, for the last few weeks.

    Had same on right side a few years ago, and took cortizone jabs and faffing around up doctors and hospital for weeks to get it sorted.

    Would rather not go through that again, was a right ball ache.

     

    Get one for sure,more magnetic, the better talked mate of mine into getting one 3 week ago for shoulder pain, says pain  gone after day or two
