    Euro tracked chippers.

    Curious about your statement regarding the 12" Morbark gasser... Care to explain a little more?

    Euro tracked chippers.

    And people like that always talk to you like you're the one who's unfamiliar with the equipment. I get this every time I go into a saw shop or even Vermeer to look at climbing gear.

    Euro tracked chippers.

    Not to derail too far but this happened yesterday with a major bucket truck manufacturer's sales rep. We bought a new truck and he came by for the walk through, which seems like their insurance maybe requires, and I had to show him how to tip the bucket to empty it and how to engage the body prop.

    Is it time to replace the bungee on my Big Shot?

    Great for grips on mountain bikes and motorcycles too! I even put a mtb grip on the clutch handle of my chipper this way.

    Is it time to replace the bungee on my Big Shot?

    I replaced mine when it started cracking like that and was really bummed to see the replacement begin to crack within 2 years with very minimal use and always stored away from UV light.

    tool/chainsaw lanyard attachment options while in a bucket truck?

    I usually do the same, attaching the lanyard somewhere on my harness if I can't find a suitable spot on the bucket.

    The Akimbo 2

    These are currently 15% off at Monarch Rope with code NY2026. I'm so tempted but I rarely climb anymore.

    Bandit Chipper possible options - and why.

    Great thread! I wish my 1390 was outfitted with the adjustable chute. My current chip truck has a kind of low roof chip box. So I can either buy the adj. chute kit from Bandit for $2600 or mod the chip box. I'll probably do the latter since it has the added benefit of more chip capacity.

    Epicondylitis

    Something that helped me with this same condition was prolozone therapy. Ozone injections near effected area that stimulate blood flow and healing. This and REST, definitely not squeezing tennis balls all day. I also notice a big difference (helpful) with wearing the elastic brace around elbow...

    Reputable chainsaw tuner

    I'm pretty sure that Madsen's will build saws too, you have to call them. No personal experience with any ported saws though, I just run them stock. https://www.madsens1.com/

    Life in cold slow lane, cat rescue, new climber on rope

    I call this a massive win for the day, Moss! A feel good cat rescue and opening some young eyes to tree climbing! Well done.

    ISA Webpage

    Just here to say that I agree that the site is garbage and I wrote to them as well to express my frustrations. I certainly want to see the CEU report so I can make sure that everything is accounted for. I like the ISA but don't really like the direction it has gone. It seems like it's too easy...
