    pinto pulley safe?

    I think you'd be surprised what it can handle. Bonner is a good one to talk to about this. I seem to remember a few years ago that he was pushing some limits with it to see how it handled. Even though cheek plates provide some additional rope protection, it's still always important to take care...

    High Cost of CEUs

    If I go to 1 conference a year I end up with far more CEU's than required. I guess I don't think that's asking much at all.

    I was about to make a very similar comment to this one. Beat me to it.

    Home birthing hippies

    Shit man, it's all badass. As tough as all of us tree guys like to think we are, nothing we will ever do holds a candle to giving birth, whether it's at home, with or without drugs or by caesarean. You watch a woman bring a life into this world and it leaves you dumbfounded.

    Congrats to you and your wife Jon! Next time I'm in Portland we'll have to climb a tree while our wives swap home birthing stories.

    Help Starting A Small Business

    I love doing daily rates for large properties. More often than not, the client decides to add time if they like the quality of work. I'd love to get to a place as an industry where you simply billed for time instead of estimating.

    I understand why he uses a 90 ton crane. He'd flip anything smaller in a heartbeat.

    I love that on the front page of his website he says "Accidents do happen". Anytime you drop that disclaimer that early should be a red flag.

    I've thought about having that saw mod done. I was going to go for a 200T for an arm but then they had to come out with that dog, the 201. Gonna just have to deal with this silly old hand till a new saw comes out.

    Any RM chapter Buzzers going to the Greeley Winter Tree Care Workshop?

    This is important. Is the ham sandwich on Wonder Bread or some of that nasty hippie bread?

    Pretty much anything of the Nu-Metal, Rap/Rock variety. A genre of music we could have lived without. I love the slow-mo replay of that pick flipping in the first video. Fuck safety man, this is gonna look badass!

    The choice of music tells you everything you need to know about this guy.

    Give your home a proper look with Bootstreeservices

    I was losing it in December but I feel for you East Coasters now. I was working in a t-shirt yesterday.

    Now that's crossing the line Gu. Have you no decency?

    I hate bucket trucks.

    I'd say that's cheating, but mostly I'm jealous.

    Employee Contracts

    Yeah. I think a handbook is a good place to start, though a real pain in the ass. I've been revising one for a year as I think of things I should add, clarify, remove etc... Course, I can be a perfectionist. It's incredibly important to familiarize yourself with both state and federal labor...

    Home birthing hippies

    We had both of ours at home, the second one just a month ago. Amazing experience. My wife also has looked into becoming a midwife because she loved it so much. Sadly, with our tree service being so young, we don't really have time for her to go to school at the moment. It's crazy when you really...
