    Cranes, trees and common usage locations

    [ QUOTE ] approximately 30% of our work sites look just like that. (big ginkgo?) [/ QUOTE ] Actually that was just a street tree. The tree we removed was a Siberian elm (I'm pretty sure that's what it was, elm of some type) I got one or two photos on my crappy cell phone I could post but I'm...

    lightning protection help

    Watch out for irrigation. If you don't place your ground leads around these types of items the lighting might dissipate into those systems. That's all I got that hasn't been said before. Oh and call your local one call to check for other services under ground. Don't want to be putting a hole...

    Rescue ?

    I'm going to say no just because knowing how to treat every situation would be insanely tough to be prepared for. I know how to get someone to the ground one way or the other. It might not look pretty but if you need to come down I'll make it happen. I've had to rescue someone on spikes...

    Bee line 10mm and Armour prus 10mm splice

    What do you mean when you say "core to core"? like an exposed 12 strand splice? Because the way the directions look the class two double braid is core to core then the cover is just kind of dealt with. I have been looking at Samson's directions because of the amsteel two and I also sent all gear...

    Bee line 10mm and Armour prus 10mm splice

    Rich told me to avoid the yellow tracer bee line. Not worth the time. But the 10mm AP to just follow regular class one directions. I want to learn the class two double braid since it's not something I do very often. I was thinking of trying some endura braid or even some of the stuff from all...

    Husqvarna Pole Saw Problem. Need Help

    Ya it doesn't sound like there is much you can do with the shaft. try giving it a tune up and looking for broken pieces inside the power head. I've used one out of a bucket and in the tree before for storm damage trees. Sometimes the extra distance is really nice. Very situational but sometimes...

    Bee line 10mm and Armour prus 10mm splice

    The bee line has a yellow tracer in it and an orange core and the AP is blue. These should be a class 2 double braid right? But I see them done with a class 1 double braid. My question is what are the measurements for the cover and core? Is just lengthening the cover enough or should the core...

    [ QUOTE ] It seems like in the USA the release date for the T536 LiXP is 2014..... And the european machines aren't approved yet for american standards...at least that's what I have heard. So you guys have to wait a little bit. I was surprised the release date is that much in between. Hope...

    Husqvarna T536 Li XP tophandle chainsaw

    Well, they had the saw there to show off but they had no idea you could buy it in the European market. I would have thought they would be in touch with the rest of the company. It's got to be bureaucratic red tape that's keeping it out of the us. I wish we could all get together and settle on...

    Tony is right. Here is Yale's. I find samson's a bit easier to read and follow. Pretty much the same thing just a little different. http://www.yalecordage.com/pdf/yale_indust_dbraid.pdf

    Husqvarna T536 Li XP tophandle chainsaw

    Man, I want one. I was at the expo today and stopped to ask when we can get them and the sales rep said at least another year. Then i mentioned that they where going to be for sale soon in Europe. They had no idea what I was talking about.

    zigzag

    yup 275 and once the thing wears out you need to buy a new one. There are no plans for a rebuild like the uni. They did say guys have had it for over a year and said it was going strong but when will it wear out? It's pretty slick but I'll stick with a hitch and a rope wrench.
