    Here we go, docs gonna throw some screws in my knee and reattach my mcl tomorrow. Already have plans for a custom knee brace that'll fit over my carbon geckos. Can't wait for the day when I'm walkin through the hospital with my spikes in hand, or a carbon fiber knee for that matter. I hope...

    "many of our actions apply so much force that the reactions happen fast and violent. too fast to comprehend. I always try to run a worst possible outcome scenario in my head before I apply a lot of force to an object." So...

    Thanks for the kind words and good advice fellas. If the incident was filmed and on Axe-men, I would have spiked the tv ratings. After the stem knocked me on my ass, the winch line lifted one end of the log up about 8' or so, got hung up again, and of course I was directly underneath the...

    What is up with poplars lately! Monday we were winching a couple trees out of a river to prevent them from potential bridge wash out, one of which was an eastern cottonwood. The chipper winch was backed to a steep bank, poison ivy galore, boulders slicker than frogs hair. One guy across...

    This is the best therapy I have ever had, thanks everyone. I thought about strategically placing a gargantuous fake dong on the rear bumper to make his commute home a little confusing and interesting.

    Hey Levi, just some young punk gettin off to a little bullying (won't let him bring me down.) I've been on the job for a couple months and he has been there for four years and is 8 years younger than me. I learned recently that one other person (I suspect more) walked off the job beacause of...

    For the most part I've been self employed since 1998. I recently joined a reputable tree service in hopes to learn and grow as an employee. The amount of work we can accomplish in a day is incredible. Our lead climber was born to be in trees and is a pleasure to work with (makes me want to...

    Tree worker pulled into chipper

    Nothing seems slow our lead climber down, broken nose, blown knees, but this was worthy of him saying "go a little slower."

    Tree worker pulled into chipper

    Last Friday during our safety meeting our lead climber revealed some wicked rope burn around his neck, looked like he was hanged. Anyway apparently Hobbs was runnin really fast and he felt something brush his back and without enough reaction time it wrapped around his neck. Didn't see it...

    Thank you woodpecker.

    The P. woodpeckers have been hammerin trees like crazy in my neighborhood, long winter, I know I was bangin my head waiting for it to end. Sounds like the majority of them have a vendetta against monkeyloves porch. If I had my way Guy my town would be littered with habitat trees with bat condos.

    Thank you woodpecker.

    I really want to drop it in the water and tension it with a boat, (fun factor) I'm confident I can steer it in the right direction. Maybe I can film it for ya'll. Highline hmm.. possibly, its pretty tall I'll take another look that would be fun too, theres another resinosa bout 15' next to it...

    Thank you woodpecker.

    Pileated woodpecker unveiled an underlying problem. I was going to cut and chunk this one down last fall and thankfully the job was put on hold. Are there laws that say you can't drop a tree into water? Obviously I would quarden off the target zone. Some holes are 2' long and other smaller...

    what's in your rigging bags?! Show em up !

    Hey Treetop, the amsteel on the winch is, if I remember correctly 1/4" , 7,700# break strength, 4,000# winching. I will replace it w/larger diameter soon, I can't seem to get my brain to trust such thin line. The truck hoist has a 1,000# rating. I hoist my wood splitter no problem, granite...
