    Today....

    92⁰ Found ganoderma on an alder that means more work for me. Toe in pic for scale. One leader is mostly dead. Micro-x around the yard, headed to the sawmill.

    Tie-In-Point Backup?

    A lot of bounce testing and watching at the same time can help. I'm a big base-tie fan with backup branches.

    basic noob trailer plug question

    Agreed. One truck had a 6, 2 trucks have a 7. I need to get a new 7 to replace the 6, and add a light. 6-to-7 dangles.

    basic noob trailer plug question

    Bored backcuts/ anti-barberchair/ anti-fiber pull Thread

    Fuck that troll. Anyone want him here? @Tom Dunlap for someone who so despises the BS-spewing, narcissistic, megalomaniacal, trolling, shit- stirring tendencies of the Rump, I'm surprised you let this wanna be bully nutjob keep diarhhea-ing in our pool party. He's so typically FB treeguy...

    Olympia, WA, various needs.

    P.S. Looking for people with good working memory. Fixed the duplicate/ missing picture situation in the above post. In more expensive Portland, I'm seeing ads for lead climber for $40/ hour. I'll pay a serious assistant climber/all-arounder or a real deal power groundworker $40/hour.

    Olympia, WA, various needs.

    If a dream boss is super serious about safety and risk- management, clear communication all day, every day with the goal of "boring, lazy treework" where we are not surprised by foreseeable things and everything goes to a safe, well- communicated plan, who will not tolerate unsafe behavior or...
