    Looking at Mini Skid Steer - Opinions?

    I would only suggest used if you have bad credit or the rest of your business operating costs are maxed out. If you take that 15k and put it down, you can own 2/3rds of a new machine with a BMG, your payment would be about $500 a month. That is only $25 a day. You'll get a warranty, have the...

    Need more than a top handle in a tree

    I'm not a fanboy of any brand, but purchaser of many. Spend the extra money for a Faster cutting saw that you wont have to augment to juice it. I'd recommend any Husky XP Or stihl MS-C....echo is a great value and dependable. My 2 Cents Echo Pro (cost, eay to repair, and warranty) Con (some...

    Warning - Recoil Lanyard Can Open 3 way Carabiners

    Yeah...that's my new method. I will still use the Recoil, but it surprised me how easy it happened. I think the design of the Recoil makes it act like two finders on a gate though. Sent from my SM-N950U using Tapatalk

    Warning - Recoil Lanyard Can Open 3 way Carabiners

    Had an odd set of events happen without injury or accident on Friday. I was pruning a eucalyptus and when I reached across my body to cut out some dead out my Recoil lanyard was able to open my 3 way gate at my bridge. Because of the coils, twists, and movements, it can quite easily open gates...

    Fu*%face Von Clownstick

    Sadly, I think it will take pocketbook pain for them to quietly retreat. He is gleefully taking a wrecking ball to that house of cards right now. The tariffs will hit everyone where it counts, cost jobs, and not bring manufacturing back. He has been able to subsidize the ag sector to offset food...

    I'll be the first to say I was wrong about conspiracy with Russia based on the facts found in the report. There is a lot I still despise about the man, but, based on the evidence, he didn't conspire with Russia. Just like with Clinton - a lot stink but no turd. Time to move on. Things I'd...

    I mean no quickie or afs involved - just simple rope around the trunk, ddrt. If it is a decent size spar, the trunk can put side pressure on the device - I think there is even a picture in the manual. I usually use an afs, but on this climb, I didnt. because I gaffed up and forgot it. So I was...

    Thanks for the info! My 550 and T540 has been rock solid. I know that August H. takes his to a shop in Oregon, which is just north of me a few hours. I'll call both and message a couple instagram folks to figure out which will be the easiest route. Sent from my SM-N950U using Tapatalk

    What is Walkerized? A modification? I need to know more about this Walkerized treatment - I have never moded any equipment because of warranty and my thought has been - engineers and companies put a lot of time and money into this product and it should work as designed. Example - chipping...
