    Heavy leaner needs to come down sideways.

    Falling at a 90 degree to the leans high risk strategy. Top line opposite lean will not help as it will be slack as soon as the tree begins to hinge. This needs to be done by an experienced professional. It will be very straightforward to rig down pieces under the canopy with that lean. I have...

    Vermeer Chipper BC 700 xl Lemon

    Im open to offers on the Chipper. I do need to get a bigger chipper and I have a terrible loan on the thing. I'm in Hood River Oregon but if you want it and make an offer that will pay off the loan plus down payment on my next one I could drive it to Ashland OR on the California border.

    Vermeer Chipper BC 700 xl Lemon

    I sold the Vermeer for $9000 just to get rid of it fast. It originally cost $15,000. I warned the new owners about the trouble I'd had but the were giddy to get it at that price with all the issues fixed. April 2019 I bought a Bandit 75 xp for $22,000. The engineering may not be as fancy but the...

    Drones and Treecare
