    Small Jobs

    And that is frequently the way it is. I try to hold to a $400 minimum on small jobs and make it clear that it will have to work in with some other days job. And I notice that people rarely do not have other work that should be done and could be done at the same time. Upsell? For people that...

    Burning out

    One thing I've been meaning to post in this thread is the book The E-Myth (Entrepreneurial Myth). Basically that most people thinking they are entrepreneurs are just people that have created a job for themselves as opposed to working for others. The goal brought forth is to use systems to...

    That goofy dork looking guy Nick from Tree Stuff can shove it.

    I have seen some video of people who witnessed Americans coming together after 9/11 in NYC and going above and beyond to get a stranger back to her family etc. When we're done bickering we're pretty incredible I think.

    Surprisingly strong cutting action and long battery life on the Milwaukee extendable pruner - a tad heavy.

    Hedge trimmer recommendations

    Not sure about now but in the past I've noticed finding different results by using different browsers, by doing a Google search rather than starting in TreeBuzz search function, and then of course by switching up word combos and choices.

    What model battery powered saw are yall raving about?

    Anytime you can borrow and try a model of saw before you buy I think it's a great idea. We all have our different focuses and alternate methods of working. I just spent a couple of days with Brian Bixler who used to post on the Buzz all the time. He said his Omme lift goes out on about every...

    Fuel and Oil bottles

    Ebay EU has some really nice piggyback containers. Plastic is far thicker, spouts more functional, seal well.

    How's the work flow?

    Same, from 6 to 8 weeks out since Covid, even though I would have liked to be only 2 weeks out, to now current and shy of work. I will start calling clients which I prefer not to do. And most of my work is with moneyed clients. People are on edge.

    What model battery powered saw are yall raving about?

    Yes. Which I believe is a 542i. And if you like light weight when it suits the Echo 2500t is great for mostly 3 inch and sub cuts.

    Dump trailer and Powerhorse Chipper

    Not me. Oceans did I think. I have a 6 inch chipper. I would think your idea could have an eager market with available $$$ being the only hinderance.

    Dump trailer and Powerhorse Chipper

    If you asked Bandit to build you that smaller chipper/dump trailer unit I suspect they would.

    Dump trailer and Powerhorse Chipper

    If you wanted to stick with that trailer... load spreading hitch? I've seen them crank down a load sharing hitch enough to remove the back tires from a pickup. https://www.etrailer.com/dept-pg-Weight_Distribution_Hitch.aspx

    That goofy dork looking guy Nick from Tree Stuff can shove it.

    This sounds like a terrifying worst case senerio to me. As an alternative possibility think of how quickly manufacturing was ramped up for WWII.

    Today....

    The battery is sometimes sold with a blower as a kit almost as cheap as battery alone. (Blower is weak compared to a Husky batt blower.) At $215 or anything sub $300 I would buy another saw kit to get the additional battery.

    That goofy dork looking guy Nick from Tree Stuff can shove it.

    Seems like you got a good conversation going. If you ever want a topic to have more engagement and be taken more seriously I would suggest leaving out personal dispersion and just go for the business aspects. I believe you can go back and change your headline/topic if you agree.
