    Climber forman

    Tyler I really appreciate the offer, however I really am looking for somebody to run the day to day business so I can spend more time trying to get Ropetek going again. My best friend and machinist who has built all the Wraptor parts is dying of cancer. Machinists are scarcer than climbers...

    Climber forman

    So on a side note, we had a climber try out this week, well he said he was a climber. He had the gear and said he was experienced with crane removals. Put him in the tree with crane and had him set a chain and he made his way to the cut. I had to tell him everything he had to do. Had him lanyard...

    Single axle loader truck

    Shit antique or not I like it. Probably a straight 6 with manual injector pump and a durable trans, all of which I can work on. Never in my life have I spent that much on a truck though. I got our 35t grove AT for the same amount!!

    Matt Cornell Rope Saddle

    I think the arb world really needs to wake up and realize how bad Sherrill is for our industry. At a time when a lot of the innovations within our industry come from working arbs and Sherrill screws them all over because they are not big businesses so not worthy of any respect. I wouldn't piss...

    Ice vests

The inserts that contain the phase change material are a white solid when they come out of the cooler...

    Tree service owner operator struck by falling tree he cut in bayville NJ

    To me it seems the big problem was the curve of the log, probably hit the ground and did a crazy jump which was what hurt the dude. Kudos for you trying to help him get the job squared away, lets face it even if he is unprofessional he was still out there doing an honest job to pay the bills...

    This really sucks to read. Bottomline is we have an inherently dangerous job and random shit happens. Years ago I fell 37 feet due to a handled rope ascender cam coming off after a tiny circlip came off and the pin fell out. It wasn't backed up which was dumb but this was before I was on the...
