    Same here but different schemes - all rigging is red/yellow and life support/climbing is blue/green Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Integrated Tree Management Plan (ITM)

    Great concept - and I'm thinking out loud here and really asking if: This would be a monthly or quarterly maintenance price with fee for service for larger work, right? Original contract will be for x amount of time and services with additional suggestions for additional services based on Tree...

    Rookie mistake

    Broke my finger yesterday. Thought I set a second rigging block above me - but didn't. Made my cuts, harnessed my saw, rest my hand just behind the rigging line, pushed the load free with my left hand while holding a branch above me my right hand. Rigging line slid right down the limb above...

    Awesome experience! Good to see they used a qualified, licensed, and insured company. I've seen too many other home improvement shows where they hire guys who have no PPE and aren't qualified to do the work. Watched a top get dumped through a roof on "Flip or Flop". The guy on an end of a...

    Major Decision

    I'd pay to have an outside diesel guy look at it - we have laws here saying used vehicles can be looked at by 3rd parties. It's a big investment. Not sure what they are there Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Good advice Royce - have a plan, work the plan, then improvise one thing at a time. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    My work week - start earlier and get off early. Rescheduled two jobs and scheduled some training so they guys don't suffer from "burn out". Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    How do you add value?

    Keep it simple and only address what they are curious about. Here are some of my humble suggestions from my experience in sales, which others have highlighted in detail: At the bid - 1. Build (genuine) rapport - not slimy ass kissing 2. Ask open ended questions What & Why - Ex: What are the 3...

    Rookie mistake

    That's a great idea and will start backing up the quickie asap - because of the auto locking carabiner, It messed with my safety check process when I switched. I love the quickie as it works so well on isolated limbs and it always comes down smoothly. I've had issues with carabiners binding on...

    Rookie mistake

    I switched from auto-locking carabiners to quickies about 3 months ago. I also got in a hurry one day and didn't double check to make sure I pushed the slick pin all the way in past both notches - I quickly ran my alpine and quickie configuration up to my isolated TIP. I ascended all the way...

    I have to admit I stopped wearing mine after 3 months - I just couldn't get used to my rope dangling where I draw my handsaw. I keep my handsaw near where I keep my chainsaw as my muscle memory keeps ass my life support away from that storage area. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Major Decision

    I know it's tough Steve because you want to become independent as quick as possible - but I would recommend building your small business credit for two years to get better rates. You could get the independence you want so dearly only to be under water, sunk, and worse off than before in just a...
