    Arbo Space Rigging Line

    I have ordered from them a couple times. Quality is good, prices are really good.

    No doubt the coverage is better with a Coolvest, the trade-off is you can drink from a Camelbak. If I was a roofer I would wear one.

    Glaciertek.com Coolvests

    I have a Camelbak that I fill with ice cubes and then add water to in the morning. After I've drank my two liter bottles of cold water I put the pack on and it both helps keep me cooler and I have ice water on tap. I worked 11 hours in this heat on Monday and was pretty crispy after that but...

    Love tree work. Not the tree business.

    What they will actually end up discovering is that a steady diet of Facebook causes cancer.

    Portawrap minimun wrap, add'l wrap nomenclature

    2nd photo we call "put it in", 3rd photo we say half-wrap. For no porty we say "just hold it".

    Passing of Boomslang

    He will be missed. Matt never held back on speaking his mind and kept to his values.

    June 1, 2001-Happy Birthday, Treebuzz!

    Happy birthday Treebuzz! You have been a huge piece of the puzzle in my growth as a climber. I don't know that I would have been willing to switch careers to tree work without the Buzz and all the confidence that comes with access to great information and minds.

    I may have a problem

    Looks like you must be making good money either way, and don't think I didn't notice the color-matched biners.

    Notch CE Quickie vs non CE

    No, but it would probably fit. I just do a girth hitch and three half-hitches with the last one about 1/4" from the end of the climb line without the splice. Nice and slender! The other nice thing about the CE version is that if it ends up orienting sideways, it is made to be strong that way.

    Notch CE Quickie vs non CE

    I have both and I have come to prefer the CE version for a canopy anchor. This is mostly because I often use a rope that is just long enough for each leg to reach the ground, meaning I have to pull the rope through the Quickie with my throwline, out of reach, and the bigger opening of the CE...

    Bid that tree!

    It's not just "city folks" who have weird issues with trees, and there are lots of people who live in cities who love trees and go too far in the other direction to protect them. It's more of a mindset than a matter of where people live.

    Mysterious echo2511t issue

    The impact works without having to do anything else. It's because of the speed and hammering of the driver. It's reverse thread if I remember right. A regular drill won't work as well as an impact

    Bid that tree!

    Here's one my neighbor did because he is too cheap to pay me for what would have taken 10 minutes to get on the ground. This was a 15' dead Ash spar with nothing in the drop zone, no targets in the pronounced lay, and still he used a ladder to remove the top 5' in 8" rounds. Well on second...

    Bid that tree!

    He probably asked for a discount because he "already did some of the work".
