    Adjustable Crane Slings.

    But the sticks are usually gone by the time I get to trunk wood. I was just thinking a rubber wedge with a tether can be tied to the slide and reused and always on hand.

    Adjustable Crane Slings.

    Oh my are those sexy! :love: Another thought I just had is making a long taper rubber wedge on a tether for jamming the slide in place while you set it. Maybe easier maybe not. But those chokers are nice!

    Adjustable Crane Slings.

    I use what ever the crane guy comes with. Mostly 2 long eye and eye and a short eye and eye for the top and chains for the big wood. 3 grand seems steep for stable braid slings.

    Before ‘SPAM’

    SPAM isn’t bad it’s just not good. I used to pack that on extended camping trips as a treat of “fresh” meat. Hawaiians seem to love it.

    F250 Dump Thoughts

    Those might be amazing as a leaf vac setup, but chips will overload these trucks quickly.

    Shop, garage, parking, etc.

    I sold my stump grinder last year and I am better off for it. I have found two guys that are cheap so they can deal with all that nonsense. But 1000’ is damn near every customer I’ve ever had. The farm runoff is by far more of an issue than a 20” stump grind 900’ from a lake IMO.

    Speaking of permits: You now need a ground disturbance permit for stump grinding within 1000’ of a body of water. It was 35’ last year. I think it’s because of all the new construction going on and a money grab by the county.

    Dealing with different types of people in business

    A lot of the reasons listed are exactly why I don’t advertise heavily, word of mouth referrals are golden.

    But faster breakdown and after a year or two I’ll till them in. I have plans to grow some tree in the future for resale.

    Well, the farm is zones A1 prime AG so I’m a mushroom farmer not a contractor with outdoor storage.

    I’ve got 6.5 acres with a house and a 42x70’ pole shed. House rental and horse pasture rental pays for it all and I use about two acres for logs and chips, chips get spread not piled.

    Small Jobs

    No way am I rolling all that for $400 minimum. Fuel cost, insurances, man hours, taxes, consumables… naw! $400 are the sub one hour with chipper or no clean up jobs or the “ just flop it for me and I’ll do the clean up” jobs.

    Small Jobs

    Small jobs get the “I’m really sorry but I have to charge my minimum of $400”. At $400 I don’t mind doing five polesaw cuts and hauling brush to the burn pile. Also scheduling a few minimum jobs pays pretty well.
