    The New Notch Equipment Brand - For arborists by arborists

    Truth. Nothing like a midnight run back into town to the Walmart to get white rain. We did make an air powered one with a butterfly valve back in the day. Too much time, too many spare parts and too much fun to have. Not out of the air powered gun but we Use to shoot nuts and bolts wrapped...

    This is the Akimbo

    Show off them splices

    Second bury was a little tougher. I had had a loop runner girthed to a support pole in the basement. I had a biner clipped onto that. I clipped the biner around the cordage and milked by hand, starting with the biner at the first slice while pulling the cordage around the biner and then holding...

    8mm Armor-Prus. 34mm DMM ring. First attempt. Didn't have to cut anything :bailando:. First attempt at whiplock. I need more practice there for sure. 14" from throats to the bend. Ended up shorter than I had figured, by an inch either side, maybe I didn't account for the bend. That's ok, I...

    Anybody used both Jameson Blue and Yellow Poles

    I've used the one from Sherrill Tree. It's not terrible but not worth the price. Edit: Never mind. I was talking about Sherrills telescopic pole saw.

    Damnit. I forgot this was here and after seeing one at Gordon's house, I "need" one. That said, I've got an idea for mine, so I'll have to have it special ordered when I get it.
