    Well done. Great way to educate homeowners and people alike on what questions to ask and credentials to look for and to separate the professionals from the fly by nights. Of course there's still the ones who take the gamble with the cheapest price and to them I say good luck. Nice job mark. P.s...

    Vents in chip truck dump box

    So far the only thing the vents are good for is making a mess on the ground on either side by the front of the chip box. Don't like em and don't want them there.

    Are there limits to the new paradigm?

    I like when you redirect once or several Times you have the redundancy of back up tie In points and of course the consistent friction of your hitch. I find it the most beneficial in pin oaks (with tight unpruned canopy's) and wide spreading silver maples but run the wrench every chance I get.

    climbing live trees with spikes

    It shouldn't if you're a competent climber. In my opinion mutilating a tree with spikes while trimming :eek: is not the same as pruning a tree without gaffs.
