    DMM Harness

    Youre a lucky man, it’s the ride of a lifetime. I traded mine for a BDB years ago, probably should’ve just bought a bone. Hoping to stumble upon another someday like I did with the first. @Steve Connally if he doesn’t take it, I would jump on with nostalgic excitement. Still praying someone...

    Tree Work Vehicles

    You’re probably correct, and now that you say that, ‘87 seems wildly ridiculous. Even more so for a truck from the U.P. Its 2024 - that would be close to 40! I am absolutely not much into the vehicle side of things ‘97 might be it. I will double check tomorrow. Mainly wanted to showcase the...

    Tree Work Vehicles

    Funny you say that - my brother runs the ground and would get throat irritation and feel pretty crummy after larger ash jobs. He had been wearing a mask while chipping for awhile apparently. Strangely the 2 year employee said he has no problems, never wears a mask. We just put a few buffs and...

    Tree Work Vehicles

    Our ancient international - ‘87 I think? Got it cheap from a landscape guy up in the U.P. Absolutely will not ever go above 55mph for anything. Guy chopped the top off the chip box off which we still complain about regularly. Complete with built-in automatic midsummer Sauna, for when we need it...

    Chainsaw and handsaw left/right

    I’ve had a medical professional, a massage therapist, and yoga instructor comment unprompted on extreme offset of my body from right to left. I.e I can grab both hands behind my back from my right side but not even close on left side. Not much to be done there with chainsaw usage but as I’ve...

    Tree Work Vehicles

    There’s a retired ground worker around me who subcontracts similarly, mainly for companies. He does well and can probably do the work as long as he can drive and climb the ladder. Tight setup sir.

    Compact Bulldog Bone

    I guess i have to refresh my mental library, haven’t seen that in awhile. But man I say again, neat device - that is actually exactly what I hoped for. would love to see it brought to the public! I’d go for it for sure!

    Compact Bulldog Bone

    Would love both on one side for easy one handed descent/positioning and whatnot but I also have not done anything with twin ropes anyway. it sure is neat! Seems way specialty but would love to see something like that available

    Compact Bulldog Bone

    I had a rec climb yesterday using two systems that got me thinking about TRT again as well but have yet to experiment. Logistical nightmare in a short wide silver maple - would have loved to be able to manipulate two lines from the same point of friction like I’ve seen on some of woodenhand’s...

    “No Add-Ons” damn, wisdom, put that on my tombstone I used to be quite the cyclist, I’ve fantasized about this a few times. Had no idea, what a guy.

    Saddle setup (picture thread)

    I fiddled with adjustable bridges in my early days and it just seemed pointless. Fiddled again a couple years later and it still didn’t seem right. Decided to try again after looking at the Kinisi but I couldn’t get over the fact you can’t let it out under load. Tom Dunlap enlightened me about...

    DMM Harness

    Backpads are as wide (or tall?) as the price tag on everything these days it seems. my s.light is still good for a little while yet. I got it for a cool $300 or some shit. Golden era. Maybe MB2.0 is next unless dmm does indeed come out with a toned down version as rumored.

    GRCS for sale

    The dangers of bias. I would guess the differences in devices might match the differences in locations and situations of the debaters here… or maybe, the differences in situations of every tree worker here are so great we can never neutrally convey why we choose the tools we do. I feel bad...
