    Drone filmed Crane Removal, Tree growing out of House

    Good work, sometimes white pine are hard to balance, the branches are brittle, this leaves the rigging to the main stem. If the branches are relatively balanced around the stem then using 2 slings opposite to each other on stem will lift it straight and even.

    Tree motion sagging badly

    Don't have a TM, but I put some cheap ($50 I think) Buckingham suspenders on my Glide 2 and it helped a lot, donuts and bacon just didn't have the same effect.

    It should have at least another 6000 hrs left in it, it will have a really good chart too.

    One of today's jobs, there was a raccoon up in a hole where the climber is, he decided to vacate just as I was putting that lift down.

    The view from my office window

    Worked for some really backwards carpenters today, they had me put up the gable end closest to me inspite of me telling them twice that I would be much faster the other way. I thought I took a picture of the walls and the gable end up, but I guess not. And I forgot to take one of the large...

    If I were the one looking i'd spend more time checking out the national on the sterling. It's not pretty like the altec but I think it would work better.

    The altec has a decent chart for a 26 ton. It will need 6 new tires and possibly an alingment from the looks of the tires that are on it.

    A good idea of who you're buying from is half the battle. Do you have a crane mechanic that you trust to look at it for you? We have a good guy here he actually works at a forklift dealer, but he used to be a crane operator and has been a crane mechanic for decades. I'd go to the company you...
