    I ended up buying locally here at the Avant dealer. We bought their 2022 leguan l190 they used for a rental machine with 700 hours on it.

    (Solved) WTB a used smaller spider lift

    My company was just awarded a sweet municipal contract! Looking for a 60-65' working height lift with tracks, similar to the platform 18.90, leguan 190, or cmc 65L. Will probably have to ship. annual lift inspection records would be awesome but just a functional lift is required. TIA!

    International made the S-series as a school bus for a long time! that and the school bus paint job reminds me of the magic school bus with Ms. Frizzle. My friend that's an artist designed the logo and funny enough is apprenticing with me as an arborist now. I named my company 'Holy Grove' as a...

    The thought of buying these ninja shoes to try them out for climbing is too tempting. I am going to see if I can get them in a size close to US13. Time for more impulsive gear decisions. A side note: Everyone wishes that they were tall until they find out how poorly clothing is tailored to fit...

    "The Magic Chip Truck!" Daily driven for 3 years with no major issues. 82 international s1724 s series with a 392 6.4L gas motor and two speed rear axel. She's slow but she still shows up to the job on time. No major issues so far. I think it was a utility or DOT truck originally from Oregon...

    BDU minus the sawdust catchers would be rad.

    that's insanely cool - thanks for sharing. What a coincidence, 200$, no rivets, saw protected, not ski pant colors, damn. At a glance I don't think they'd fit me since its 1 size fits all 5'-6' tall supposedly.

    Like Levi uses them and Rusticus suggests I think their application might be limited but pretty awesome bit of kit for summer/fall months. I'll have to check out le Bent and see their wears.

    I guess they would be more handy for the spready deciduous trees I climb locally. Tool for the job in my case. I don't find myself in a wildland interface climbing/removing big conifers very often. Maybe ninja pants are for the trendy hipster urban arborists :D. With all the cheeseburgers I...

    I thought of the safety of chipper operation at first but I don't really think it poses an issue unless the pants are easily torn - has that been your experience so far?
