    Shadow Puppets???

    My insurance guy is out of the Brainerd area. He did some digging into this. Apparently the operating company didn't have any WC, and the guy who offed the other guy was their only CDL driver. Nightmare all around.

    I'm still confused how you would accidentally grab someone's head with a grapple. What kind of idiots.... Didn't say the company name. Smfh

    another big back leaner... (real tree cutting for a change around here)

    Not much hold wood and delaminated in multiple spots. Could see light through it. Ash so at least it hold strong.

    Looking for an Aerial Rescue Trainer near Seattle

    Linear Force as a Dimension Model

    Straight up. He's putting professors to shame here. The mix of applied and theoretical knowledge into distilled form is so hard to come by.

    Reflex vs. Blackbird

    We're going to be doing some tech upgrades soon... @N1ght wants the blackbird. I'd leaned toward the reflex or getting myself a bulldog bone (couldn't use it last I looked when I was at a company gig). Our newer climber is on the akimbo 1 or the hitchhiker 2. Slippage and wear concern me a...

    Damage Clauses for Driveways, Walkways, Lawns, etc.

    You're right, I was being crass. I apologize. I get sensitive about what I perceive as a fixed mindset, and I didn't give you much of a chance to explain more of your thinking.

    Damage Clauses for Driveways, Walkways, Lawns, etc.

    This is exactly why t&c exist. There's no way to know every single scenario. This puts it into each person's field as to the educated decision to make.
