    Latest helmet comms

    Guess we will keep it simple for now then and just link the three of us. 4th will be a backup. The last one is the one that gives us fits.

    Latest helmet comms

    I have numbered them, each guy has his own that he's in charge of. Youd just think for the money that theyd have a little better connectability or there would be an easy way.

    Latest helmet comms

    If anyone has an easy method to get all of their sena's to link I am all ears. Recently bought 4 wortuff senas and installed on helmets and getting everyone connected is damn near impossible.

    helmet with mesh visor

    Baileys Online carries a woodland safety glass that is mesh, they have foam on the backside like a motorcycle riding glass and is what me and most of my guys prefer. I have one guy that has a superplasma helmet, he uses the clear visor and it constantly gets in the way. We have the notch muffs...

    TreeStuff $75 Ships-Today-Guarantee

    Treestuff was great before it sold, I ordered everything from them. Then things got slow for a while and communication wasn't good so I started buying from a different supplier who's been great. Ordered from treestuff a few months ago, got a few glasses and an orange kask on clearance... ratchet...

    New saddle for heavy guy?

    Wondering what saddle all of the heavier guys are currently climbing. My new tribe onyx is getting tired and I’m looking to replace it. Obvious replacement is the monkey beaver 2.0 But the Tree Rex 2 also has my attention as well. I’m 5’11”, 310lbs before gear, and waist fluctuates between...

    Five Dead Ash Lift Vs Climbing

    I use towable lifts occasionally on super dead or crispy trees, not just ash. I can't guarantee that it's honestly any faster but its definitely a safer more reliable option. If you thought you were gonna be in a time pinch as far as completing in one day I'd focus on just getting the...

    On call emergency response for Municipality's

    When i did line clearance the utility had a cell phone for on call and all crew leaders were on a weekly rotation for on call. You just took the phone for your week and it was your responsibility. You got an extra 2$/hr on your regular check for on call weeks as well. You knew your rotation so...

    Overuse Injuries

    You're probably gonna think I'm stupid but the best things that I think have personally kept me moving well are: *A good chiropractor - Someone that can get extended relief for you, not having to go in three times a week to some bullshit chain clinic. *Good boots - I wear Hoffman Powerlines...

    Burning out

    You have to set some boundaries for yourself and stick to them. Me personally I don't work weekends or to late into the afternoon. I know what my overhead and operating cost are and bid accordingly. Jobs get booked in the order that people agree to them unless it is an immediate hazard/storm...
