    Looking for some "weird" spikes for a coworker...

    I was wondering what these were. A co-worker of mine uses them and i thought they were for linesman being plastic and all, not sure if they would insulate you or not.

    Tell me something stupid you did!

    Unclipped my lanyard to send my 201 down to get gas. Got it back , finished my cuts let the saw go and it kept going all the way to the ground. Forgot to clip it back on to my harness

    Bucket trucks, what's good? Help.

    When i worked in Australia the boom trucks were amazing. They all seemed to have elevators (Tele) and or fly booms. You could get anywhere in a tree.

    trying to go srt

    Thanks Tom I think that was why I was having such a hard time in the trees. The plumb Bob idea really made a light bulb go off in my head, plus I think a saka wouldn't hurt either.

    trying to go srt

    I want to convert to srt. main reason is to reduce carpel tunnel symptoms. Love it for spar work and gaining access to prune bushy conifers but i find myself reverting to dbrt everytime i do a tree with a wide speading canopy. It just seems more productive especially if I'm advancing my tip as...

    Kask Visor and Sap

    I now run a mesh visor but i got 3 years out of my kask smoke visor. $70 over 3 years is good for me and its always on your head. Haven't tried mesh glasses but the the screen works sweet. I have the mesh kit from tree stuff that is made for the kask helmet.
