    Texting a business card

    Samsung also has a feature to scan an image. This makes a better more professional image. Even if the camera is angled to the card yo avoid a glare, it will square it up in the image with no background around the image.

    Love tree work. Not the tree business.

    This doesn't solve your Avant problem, but how about picking up a bobcat mt100? I paid $38,000 2 years ago at 0% intrest. If it picks up the slack it'll pay for itself in 1-2 months according to your numbers. It'll increase your current efficiency and give you a second machine when your Avant...

    Love tree work. Not the tree business.

    At the risk of a derail, I keep looking into these but have yet to pull the trigger. How long do they help before they lose their cool? Can they be recharged with an ice cooler and rotate with a 2nd one on the job, or do they require a freezer?

    Screenshot your images in your gallery and then post the screenshot. That has always worked for me.

    Storing a branch manager

    I've been storing mine in the trailer with the scoops on, it stays upright without tiedowns. If I unhook it at home, I always lay it down or unhook it then knock it over. To risky in my opinion to keep it balanced upright when kids might climb on it and have it fall on them. My shop is at...

    Here's another video I hadnt posted from 2019 when I was first experimenting with this l. This one didn't go perfect, I should have had the face more open and I probably went too deep on this one but it still accomplished its task of not damaging the driveway between slowing it down and the...

    More pics of the no backcut. This was a smaller multi stem Tulip Poplar. Laid them over on a paved driveway with minimal impact

    In general or one of these two trees in particular? The Birch I didn't do a backcut at all. A deep notch and opened the apex of the notch a bit. I think it might be called a step notch? Deep enough to be about 80% through and then pull with a machine. The back 20% is the hinge and it slowly...

    Thats a different cut that I used for that Birch. I considered it for this Gum but I wasn't sure that I could pull over a 20" sweet gum without a backcut, and so I played it safe with an open notch and a thick hinge. If the stump wasn't right by a couple Azalea bushes I probably would have...

    I pulled some fibers today out of this Sweet Gum. I slowed it down enough to prevent any lawn damage on the sod. https://www.facebook.com/reel/1342325424669857/?mibextid=9drbnH&s=yWDuG2&fs=e

    Mini skid idler bearing removal

    I have this tool as well from harbor freight. I've only used it once to remove a hub on my old vermeer s600. From my personal experience, I bought the bigger model of puller for the extra umph but the hub was too thin for the jaws to grab before it stroked out. I had an extension made between...

    Same here actually. I thought it was a fb hoax at first. Central Missouri and a cinnamon black bear hung out in town for about a week. This was last year and there had never been a bear sighting there before.

    Rope grab recommendations for rigging

    How about a rescue 8 and clip in with a steel carabiner? I'm not sure how well they maintain rope strength. 2nd the ropejack, thats my personal choice for hand pulling, miniskid to pull when it can get in position

    Latest helmet comms

    You are right, but I work with multiple other companies. I was assessing the possibility of buying a couple of extra 30Ks and clipping them to whoever I was working with that day. Currently everyone uses 10s or 20s which interchange
