    Taking top without limbing.

    For a full removal, I sometimes (not usually) take out the top out as the first step for a couple reasons. One reason is to dampen the load. With all the branches on the tree, I barely feel the top coming off at all while negative rigging. Also maybe this is safer? especially with new...

    Skid vs Mini Skid

    It seems arborists love their Minis! I can see that likely, I would be able to use a mini day in day out for forwarding branches and chippable material into the chipper. I just feel I'm missing out on a huge benefit of the job: the wood! I'm either leaving the wood behind, or subbing the...
