    Double-Tied when Spurring Conifers

    Good thread. Where I work the norm is to ascend on a wire core and limb on the way up. Most of the guys don't even tie in twice thinking the wire core is saw proof or some thing... I've found that the only way to keep up with these guys and remain safe is to choke with a biner SRT and clip in...

    Is lanyard use different in SRWP

    Im going SRT these days more often than not and I have a 20ft lanyard I Daisy. It is sweet because it works like a mini dbrt system when I need it. I also use a 3to1 on the climb line but I'm still new to climbing and I'm trying to not be lazy and get into better work positions. The other day I...

    vermeer bc2000?

    I can't say anything about the 2000 but we run a 2015 1800xl and it bogs down like crazy on the bigger stuff. Seems like I'm waiting for rpms to pick up or reversing the feed rollers trying to unjam the thing. I used to work for a company that used an 18" bandit that would chip non stop being...

    Tree Motion Light

    Im with pfanner man on the back being high and tight but love my legs loose especially on spurs with lower d-rings. Just two days ago i had a stihl 362 hanging from my harness. No slip at all.

    Bidding Line clearance

    I used to do line clearance in Australia. We used to have a third party(company) go do the scoping/ bid work then contract out the work. They used to drive around in Utes and do estimates on the work. We were usually paid by the span( power pole to power pole) and expected to do 6 spans a day...

    Re-hosing a boom truck

    Thanks heaps for the advice. Just replacing the one hose and how tight it was trying to pull it threw with the fitting on was a nightmare so i think the coupling idea is ruled out. When i removed the broken hose i tied some throw line to it so i had something to 're route the hose but still...
