    Rope ID Help

    The 3-strand looks like 1/2" Teufelberger Multiline. It's great for lots of stuff but not climbing. It is the best rope for the Maasdam rope puller in my opinion. The other one looks like a KMIII knock-off. There's something about the spacing of the yellow flecks that looks off to me.

    Rope Runner Vertec Limited Edition

    I think that it's very strange for him to come back here to Treebuzz and without saying ANYTHING about this huge issue, re-join with a new name and immediately start selling stuff. Selling stuff is exactly what started this whole mess in the first place and there are tons of other avenues for...

    He means is the item going to get to the person who paid for it or is it another rip-off.

    ART Blackbird

    Nature's Canopy in PA is Donny Coffee's company. He stiffed a number of buyers here on Treebuzz by taking payment for items and never shipping them. He stopped responding to messages completely. He later claimed to have been hospitalized for a serious condition, acted indignant with a number...

    Neurodiversity thread

    @southsoundtree your anger and frustration is palpable. You seem like a fine-tuned, super capable and exacting person. You are going to have trouble regularly finding help that doesn't frustrate you. I think a case could be made that you yourself are neurodivergent using the definition of...

    Neurodiversity thread

    Are all these folks you're having trouble with under the age of 35 or thereabouts? I have found that even otherwise intelligent younger people struggle with basic spatial reasoning, interacting with the material world and critical thinking in the context of a physical task. This is no doubt a...

What we give up in potential maximum daily profit, we make up in not having to visit multiple sites in a day and the knowledge that we will make enough money. We offer it...

    Question on life support carabiners with auto locking bypass feature

    I think you can rotate the gate and it will stay in that position in case you need to free your hand for something, then you just push the gate in and it opens. They do close automatically though. I used them on my last lanyard and they were just fine. Didn't know they did that when I bought...

    Spiral grain

    I have seen this on Wild Cherry here in Michigan frequently. It is always on really large, old trees. My take is that it is a way to stabilize the overall structure of a tree by changing up the plane of failure by changing the grain. Makes for a hard piece of wood to split.

    Big tree, no space

    +1 to everything @ATH said. If you walk around the outside perimeter of Central Park in NYC, all the mature trees are surrounded by paving bricks that get periodically re-set. There are some drastic undulations in those bricks but the tripping hazards are few and far between. If they can do...

    How you pick your name?

    We are called Detroit Arborist Collective. We decided on this because we wanted to signal professionalism, as well as a focus on tree knowledge. We also wanted clients to know that we function as a group, and this is one of our strengths. We're structured as a cooperative and wanted something...

    Bracing rod sweetgum?

    Or use something like Branch Saver that is textile and the angle won't matter as much.

    Bracing rod sweetgum?

    Why not just remove the left side? Are they poor compartmentalizers? Not a species I have deep knowledge of. I would be inclined to either remove entirely or cable, and just use those beveled washers so the cable doesn't bend.
