    Fu*%face Von Clownstick

    Move to Detroit. There's plenty of tree work here and plenty of fight too. This city will never be conquered by fascism after what it's been through and risen from. You can work with us!

    Work Photos

    Everyone makes mistakes, it's how you respond that matters and that's a pretty good response! I did almost exactly the same thing this Spring with a chunk of Norway that got away from me and smashed the fascia on a garage. Luckily it was going to be painted and remodeled soon and I did a...

    Hiring a climber/ employee from out of area

    I think it's pretty normal for a human to have increasing fear at greater heights. It is unusual to have the same fear at 15' that you would at 180'. The feeling of being surrounded by a canopy is also reassuring at any height. I think that may be a bigger factor actually. I am more comfy in...

    Velcroed Tops, Spiderman and Treeson

    The amount of product placement in the first two minutes put me off watching the rest. I'm sure it was interesting but I don't have the patience

    Bolting or cable splitting tree

    The presence or absence of decay is also a huge factor in this decision in my opinion. Absent decay, Sugar Maple is super hard and strong wood.

    Bolting or cable splitting tree

    Rod down low, cable up high, end weight reduction prior to cable installation.

    Cobra Cabling

    Not to get too far in the weeds on this but my brain just works this way. If you were to do a loop splice but instead make it a figure 8, the added friction from additional contact area would take load off the splice. The price of both a loop and figure 8 is more potential for wear on the...

    Cobra Cabling

    Why not just switch to a static cable? You can always replace it if it gets too snug. That way you don't have to worry. As for the loop, it would have a higher breaking strength than the standard way of installing it I would think so that's a plus.

    Cable Bracing

    We usually charge around $800 for a 3/8" cable that is in the 15' or longer range. Usually it is rolled into a package price that includes end weight reduction on the limb(s) in question so that is rarely the total price. If it is a short run and/or smaller cable the price can be as low as $300

    F250 Dump Thoughts

    We have an '01 F350 crew cab with a 7.3 and a dump insert like yours @Keeth and it pulls a Bandit 250XP and a full box of chips with no problem. The weeble wobble is real though with the dump insert. The 7.3 is just a next level motor.

    Got alot to sell

    My uncle is in Rose City. If you are able to take a picture of everything along with a list of what's there it would really help me to know if a trip is in order. I'm in Detroit. You could PM me that stuff or post it in the thread, either way!

    Compact Bulldog Bone

    I appreciate the background info for context. I myself am of Irish descent(last name is Delaney) so there's a good bit of what you describe that resonates with me. I was speaking about your YouTube presence when referencing image. I would challenge your statement about there being no emotion...

    Compact Bulldog Bone

    No worries. It's a holiday weekend here in the states and we're doing some backyard camping here in Detroit. We've probably both got better things to do haha

    Compact Bulldog Bone

    I was not being sarcastic. As for needing to be told the problem in order to help, you're the one who has a problem with the way the BDB exists in the world, not me, so that is for you to express and potentially help address, or just act self-righteous about if that's what suits you. As for...

    Compact Bulldog Bone

    I have a great idea @Reg. Since you've made it clear that your input on the BDB is offered as help, why don't you borrow one from a Buzzer here and spend a couple hours using it and trying to find problems or ways to improve it? I bet Gordon may even send you one as a tester. If you spent as...
