    Help me select a pole pruner head please

    So I’m looking for a pruning head to fit my Jameson yellow poles. I have two 4 ft and one 6ft pole that should make any combination of lengths for what I prune. I was looking at the Jameson 1.75” pruner with the double pulleys, adapter and rope as the best option to handle mostly oak pruning...

    Looking for a good reference on diseases and bugs

    Guys & gals What would you recommend for a book to help diagnose most typical diseases and bugs affecting trees and shrubs. I live in the northeast if that helps narrow it down.

    Is commercial-only work worth it?

    I've been looking at tree pruning opportunities in the commercial sector and what I've seen here in Mass is that a TON of small trees in places like Walmart, Lowes, commercial building parking lots are hugely neglected. Not only that, but they are in real bad shape from snow plows, road salt and...

    To get away from the wife - she can't follow me. Just kidding, it's actually the kids! I have always found refuge in the woods and a special respect for trees of nearly any kind. As I get older, it bring me back to my youth to go hang out in the woods and climb.

    Legends of real tree men

    Ok genius, what would you expect them to do to make a living during depression era America? Be a banker? Jump into law or medical school? All of these guys didn't have a pot to piss in so they used what they had- their brains and muscle. I'm very proud of my grandfather as he was the hardest...

    Legends of real tree men

    Great flick! my grandfather was a logger and lumberman all this life. He worked in the central Maine area though, not coastal like these guys. Cool to see what it was like for him back then. I've heard plenty of stories of these camps.

    Are cemetery trees safe?

    I think I'll definitely keep it to the daylight hours. The cemetery doesn't need any mowing maintenance since it's mostly moss so I don't think the town crew visit very often.

    Are cemetery trees safe?

    Thanx for the feedback guys! This cemetery is old and the trees are well established. It's unlikely that any families are going to still be around to visit a 100+ year old grave, but I could be wrong.. There are narrow roads all over that interweave and it's on the backside of a hill so access...

    Are cemetery trees safe?

    I was in an old cemetery yesterday and noticed all of the nice old maple and oak trees just wanting to be climbed. My question is are these trees generally safe due to all of the root disturbing activity that goes on? I'm imagining a lot of root damage from all those pesky 6 foot deep holes...

    New to gopros and editing.

    Dan Nice videos, especially the plane rescue. Thought that thing was scrap but it's great that he can reuse it. How resistant is the Scandere line to picking from your toothed ascenders? Also how's the line stretch compared to the Ivy (I think) you were using? Does it resist flattening from you...

    Communication and why it is the most critical safety factor in tree work and tree climbing in general
