    What's on your mind? TCI Magazine wants to know

    From a production standpoint I’ll stick with time consuming. Lol But your sentiment is basically my point as to why it’s a good thing to know. Knowing the simplicity of just a rope makes for a valuable skill no doubt.

    What's on your mind? TCI Magazine wants to know

    I’d bet Notch would lobby pretty hard against this. Personally I think every tree person should learn how to natty rig. Just like the taught line hitch and hip thrusting, outdated and time consuming but may save your bacon one day.

    trees and spirits and stuff

    Fruit tree holding on by a thread, client wants to get another year out of it. Thoughts?

    A secure footing is key. Maybe not so much permanent but heavy. Probably wouldn’t take more than a five gallon bucket of concrete for this apple. My father in law had a boxelder that had a prop, cradle style not thru bolt, that fell out in some wind events. He poured a footing and cemented it in.

    I think karma is an extension of the golden rule in a way. Not so much as a law of existence but a law of inherent kindness that is uniquely human. Most would rather be kind than not and some, well, not so much and that’s where karma gets used. Like that southern saying here “bless your heart “...

    trees and spirits and stuff

    I don’t know if trees have “spirits” but I do know they have a presence and age so maybe that is why people have an aversion to them. Idk.

    Love tree work. Not the tree business.

    I’m glad I’m not the only one who hates the business side of tree work.

    A spray bottle that lasts?

    I’ve used grease before but stopped because of the mess. Somehow that ends up on my pants and dog more than a few squirts of FF every month or so. The grease lasts a long time, significantly more than the FF but my dog isn’t greasy.

    A spray bottle that lasts?

    I use the FF spray rig, it has hoses to reach the tight spots inside doors and frame rails. I buy it by the five gallon bucket and keep it in the heated shop. That has worked for me.
