    Fill those cavities with cement?

    I keep asking why the local garden centers still stock asphalt pruning paint. The answer is 'cuz people still buy it and ask for it' I have tried to help them learn that it isnt the best thing to do in most cases but they just shrug it off and look for buying patrons.

    Hard Hat side protection

    my thought is the shape of the brim would prevent it deforming or collapsing with side impact. I have a firemans helmet that I got from a friend, SUPER heavy and bulky though, I would certainly not like to try and work with that thing on my head.

    Chainsaw pants

    Pacific arborist supply in north vancouver carries the pfanner lineup, and their (pfanners) western warehouse is in 100 mile house or near there. Prices look to be MSRP out of the catalogue. http://www.pacificarborist.com/ although their website is horribly out of date, the contact info is the...

    Home owner in NY

    that sounds like a consult to me, not an estimate, bill it at regular rates and dont touch the 'hazard' issue without doing proper research on the trees in question then provide written reports per usual. Lay out a clear scope of work for the visit: a qualified arborist will walk the site with...

    Leaning Western Redcedar

    cool location Gord. dont forget to take some shots of it coming down if you can. Looks like fun! how far out would you have to anchor the barge to keep it from grounding? might make a shallow angle for your speedline.

    Orchard Ladder Safety

    I do something similiar when working on questionable terrain. I tie a small rope from the third rung out to the leg to limit travel of the leg beyond where I have set it. I implemented this practice after having to 'surf" on a rung whilest my ladder leg slid out and away from me on a laurel leaf...

    A First

    I am thinking it would depend on the tree type as well as common home construction methods. around here a tall douglas fir will knife through a wood frame house pretty quick. a well branched and full western red cedar or broad deciduous tree might be less damaging for sure...
