    Which silky saw for pruning fruit trees

    I run both a straight Tsuguri and a Sugoi 360. The Tsuguri is my choice for fruit trees, Japanese maples, and similar light pruning.

    What's in your First Aid kit?

    We took a tag like they'll use at a saw shop to tag your tool into repair (a 3*5" card w/wire) and wrote "re-stock if seal is broken" or similar between the zippers. It has light wire attaching it so you can just tug it off. My apprentice had the thoughtful idea to attach the tag to the truck...

    Using Jobber switching to QuickBooks Online?

    I'm with Reach, Jobber is not an accounting/book keeping software. That's what QuickBooks is. QB falls short on the CRM and scheduling side. We use both. Switched to qbo from QBD recently, a little bit of a learning curve as they dumbed it down, but we're dialing it in.

    What's in your First Aid kit?

    WesSpur has a really nice kit that we out on each truck. As for building one, I started a thread on here a few years ago that got some great info in the responses. Did you search?

    Silky Pole saws n/a ?!?!

    I meant to buy two of the Hayate poles when WesSpur still "had" stock when I heard this rumored last year. They were received as Notch poles which annoyed me, but I wasn't going to raisea big fuss. They look exactly the same to me except for the brand names, and the blades are Silky blades.

    Starter kill switch-Anti-theft scheme

    Here's a guide for that. I know it's not quite the same, but electrically it's very similar. https://www.instructables.com/A-Temporary-Disable-Button-for-Vehicle-Backing-Ala/

    Starter kill switch-Anti-theft scheme

    This is the same type of circuit as I've thought of making to temporarily disable a reverse alarm. We purchased a used ambulance and it has a momentary switch that does this. Every time you click it into reverse the alarm normally activates. If you click the switch is disables the alarm for that...

    Laser pointer

    Before last summer the one to buy was "laser 303" it looks just like the photos @Reach posted. As soon as the lasers were being used as weapons I noticed they all got pulled from Amazon and now there are some listed as "tactical flashlights", but I haven't tried them. They look about the same. I...

    Regarding Creation of an Arborist License in Oregon

    I think I could guess why. Not wanting to give authority to a third party? What is your suggestion to raise the barrier to entry into arboriculture. I think it being raised is a good thing. While we'll always have hacks, the idea behind a required level of qualification raises the perception in...

    Regarding Creation of an Arborist License in Oregon

    There could be. This wouldn't prevent a non-certified person from doing tree work. They'd just have to get the CCB license, not the LCB - arborist license.

    Regarding Creation of an Arborist License in Oregon

    It's kind of a long deal to fully brief the context, but as it is a tree service in OR is normally licensed by the CCB, but they aren't allowed to plant as LCB regulates planting. CCB does currently give an exception for LCB licensees to be allowed to do the pruning, removal, bracing, etc...

    Regarding Creation of an Arborist License in Oregon

    I The context is pretty specific to their existing licensing situation. I think you'd be welcome to observe, but I'd just reccomended refraining from adding to the mix as I'm pretty sure there may be plenty of input to go around. Obviously if you see something that needs to be said do it.
