    Battery ground saws

    I had an issue with the husky 540I top handle on two of the real hot humid days here, full battery but saw would keep triggering the overload, grabbed the milwaukee top handle and it ran without issue. I remember when the top handle milwaukees first came out there was reports of melted batteries...

    The Akimbo 2

    Only rope I’ve ran so far that I personally didn’t like it with is the Marlow Maverick, the rope runs hot for whatever reason even flaking it fast into the bag the rope gets hot in the hand. It tends to creep on me if I run it and if I bump the friction up it’s too stiff but that’s just my...

    The Akimbo 2

    Beat me to the experimentation! I didn’t have the DMM grommet but I did have the grommet inserts from my Gyro 3, however they’re slightly undersized so I used one of the rubber locks from a DMM wire gate tool carrier to keep it from sliding down the spine. I’ll give it an official run tomorrow...

    Gear bags?

I can’t remember what it...

    SRS rope and hitch

    For tachyon I swear by 8mm ocean, almost every other line I’ve used plays well with 9mm Epicord (I fly either a knut or a catalyon).

    The Akimbo 2

    I’ll echo ghostice and say I really didn’t mind the AK2 in Mrs, I was running it on a Kinisi, using a slightly lengthend bridge for the splice and shortened the second bridge for actual device attachment. It’s smooth and very workable, running through a pulleysaver I did not have to change my...

    New device from buckingham

    If your top “bird” on the akimbo 2 is very stiff even on the “a” setting it’s going to seem backwards but try the C or D setting actually makes the bird far easier to break/operate smoother.

    Teach me about dump trailers

    I’ve rented a Norstar here in MI from a marketplace guy, I had zero complaints about it, he’s had it two years now and aside from another contractor rigging spar directly into the trailer and denting the floor up pretty good it’s actually held up really well, pulled well enough with 7k# worth of...

    Size 15 wide boots?

    The Carolina loggers come in 15 wide, I personally cannot stand the loggers but if options are limited overall they’d be worth considering

    Sold

    Also have a set of Distel Aluminum gaffs with their “medium” gaff, honestly wanted to love these but my preferred spurs are the Edelrid talons they’re just so natural with my long legs. These were great, not really used for more than 15 or 20 climbs total? Just prefer my talons. Looking to get...

    On call emergency response for Municipality's

    If it was just clearing/opening the road the cities I had worked for would call based off the overtime list, all employees were trained in proper chipper and chainsaw operation, any calls that warranted aerial operation went specifically to those qualified and able to use the bucket...

    Kinisi max medium for sale

    I’m not alone! I had the same issue, no matter how it adjusted just was not the same as the OG Treemotion.

    ART BlackBird for "MRT and SRT"

    Sounds like some supply chain issues have pushed the next batch back until possibly November/December according to Freeworker supply.

    Let's talk about electrical awareness

    No direct publication, however my area (SE Michigan) what’s reported (key word there “reported”) tends to be secondary or house drop voltage and if I had to guess it’s because the lower voltage numbers aren’t as intimidating and the M.a.d is simply avoid contact leading to less overall concern...

    Let's talk about electrical awareness

    I’ve seen guys successfully pull branches away from primary only to have the branch swing back into the line before throwing, I’ve also seen guys be “poked” (indirect contact) through down guys on maple trees that were in contact down the lead. Most of the fatalities in the last couple years...

    Marlow 11.8mm climbing lines?

    Maverick is a blue moon 2.0 to me, it milks ALOT but has a decent overall feel but does get HOT even flaking quickly into a bag running through your hands it gets hot so if you’re into bombing out you may see glazing rather quickly
