    The best throwline?

    Agreed on the green dynaglide and 12 to 14 oz. Weights.it's my go to line providing it cooperates and doesn't get lets just say stuck,tangled,snagged, or just plane mangled. Of course all my doing.

    Am I Crazy?

    Crane Rules...

    Jeez, tie your hands behind your back, blind fold you, oh and then bind your feet to your hands. Seems like it should be time and material on the high side. Wonder if our standards would satisfy the needs of the higher ups? Good luck with that one.:estudioso:

    Slings, spider legs and such, must they be tagged and rated?

    I learned crane work in trees with nylon eye n eye slings and then moved to dead eye slings and there's no going back.

    Chainsaw Repair Service - TreeStuff.com

    Nice! I know if this works out I have no problem sending my stuff out because the shops we use suck, don't know or find all that's wrong with the saw, and don't fix everything at one time. Also take entirely too long to give them back.

    JOBMAN Workwear

    Agreed, I think it was explained well and you weren't just blown off. Unfortunately it's hard to find people that want to work let alone work hard. Whole nother story.

    Voorhees Nj storm recovery

    Wow, bunch of Lazys. Doubt they have to much work. Not sure if it's out of their area of travel either but have you tried Yoos tree experts my first or I believe the company is Ryan bansky tree service maybe. Yoos is a good friend of mine but not sure about the travel worth a shot though. Good luck

    Tree motion saddle overnight storage

    Tossed in my geAr bag with everything else except uncovered sharp objects. If I'm to dainty with it my luck is I'd ruin it by trying to save it. Murphy's law in my world.

    Watch out for those ash

    Access from neighbors yard even if a fence has to come down? Definitely agree on craning the lift in the back yard or even a monster crane just for the radius.

    Watch out for those ash

    X2. I say don't try to be a hero. Sometimes you'll only get one shot at it and nobody wants to make or get that phone call.

    Welcome Rock Exotica

    :frenetico:Tic toc tic toc tic toc, ok I'm starting to lose the little bit of sanity that I can muster on a daily basis so people believe I'm semi normal. I can be patient but not when something would seem to make life a lot easier rather than worrying about breaking it.:frio:and so I wait:popcorn:
