    Round Files

    The cheap ones don’t last, the Stihl files seem to hold up well over time though. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Acer sp.

    Their leaves can vary, that 3 loved one seems to be far more pronouned than the on in the back. The seeds are what define it for me, I’m not familiar with other maples that have such a close angle on the samaras. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    What I just learned could save you hours of agony, or the life of your expensive saws!

    The 372 changed a lot over its life. The oldest were real tanks. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Mini skid winch

    I feel like they would slide or tip too easily. It’s pretty hard to get the perfect combo of versatility and mobility (able to get through narrow gates). I think the best option would be an additional mount to go on instead of a grapple bucket or branch manager. It’s really easy to switch out...

    Battery Powered vs. Gas Pole Saw for lift use

    I always carry a manual pole saw in the mobile lift with me, 8’ extension. Powered saws seem to bulky to store effectively on a boom/basket. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Smaller top handle recommendation needed

    Yeah, I had expected $650. I don’t know what is done to it. $850 eats to much into my MS462 money. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Smaller top handle recommendation needed

    I emailed the Saw King about his west coast 2511’s. They are $875 if anybody is curious, shipping included I believe. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Stihl MS 261 CM

    Because I haven’t gotten around to buying a ported 261. The 241 ported can handle all things the 261 can do stock except for running an 18” bar, and that’s what the 362 is for. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Stihl MS 261 CM

    Widely regarded as a great Saw, especially the version 2. I would own one but I use the 241 and 362 Saw plan. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Building teams in tree work

    I’ve spent 14 years leading people and I’ve realized that there is no solution that fits everybody. Different people need different leadership styles to maximize their effectiveness. But the longer a group stays together the more similar their ideal leadership style becomes. Providing purpose...

    Tracked Lift 72' ... thoughts?

    I don’t think the hydraulics have a design flaw, but like all things assembled by humans, mistakes can happen. All these track lifts are trying to get a niche slice of the market. They all have pros and cons. I have flown tuepen and nifty lifts as well. This lift has no dead mans switch, which...

    Tracked Lift 72' ... thoughts?

    The hydraulics leaks usually were loose fittings, quick re tighten, but on one occasion we had to replace an o-ring. The vibration in the machine has caused a few small bolts to fall out that hold the fairings on. On our newest machine I blue loctited all the external bolts, an hour of work. The...

    Tracked Lift 72' ... thoughts?

    We have 3 of them, they are great. Have had a few issues with leaking hydraulics, but almost all quick fixes. One had a remote go bad and it was replaced by track lift. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Stihl 661 Problem

    It’s so much better than hand tuning. Saws are always tuned for conditions and there’s no need to whip out the tuning screw driver. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
