    So, I’m hoping to get some more thoughts on this topic. We recently hired a young, excellent climber. He’s got all his own gear. We’re thinking we will replace what he wears out and also give him a yearly stipend to buy whatever climbing gear he wants. What’s a reasonable number? $500? $1,000?

    Roe v Wade overturned

    Yes, God is a “He” and he created us male and female. There’s no confusion in Scripture on this fact.

    Roe v Wade overturned

    Chicago has some of the strictest firearms laws in the country, there probably wasn’t a law abiding citizen there with a firearm.

    Phone Case

    It’s not sealed. It will get wood chips inside it if you have it on you while you’re working. It is water resistant but certainly not waterproof, it’s made of real wood. The screen protector is like any you would buy, it is not integrated into the case. Bottom line, it’s a beautiful case that...

    If you’ve ever wanted a really nice phone case made of wood, I can’t recommend this company enough. I’ve been using their cases for years and love them! Their customer service is also outstanding! I’ve attached a pic of my current case made from a Maple burl. https://www.carved.com/

    Roe v Wade overturned

    I’m not sure I would agree that “The majority of the book can simply be read and understood as written.” “The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom.” Proverbs 1:7 Those who don’t have a relationship with Jesus are not capable of understanding spiritual truth because they are spiritually...

    Do you ever call a job off if you’re not feeling it mentally?

    Absolutely! Just did this Tuesday. Sent one of my guys to dump a load of chips. When he came back he told me he found out that his dad was life flighted to a hospital and was in critical condition. I was already short handed for the day and we just shut down early and came back the next day to...

    You can read the official timeline of events here. Despite what the media says, the Capitol Police we’re offered National Guard troops. Initially the Capitol Police chief doesn’t think he will need them and declines the offer. The very next day he receives more intelligence and determines he...

    These days most areas you can rent a mini skid steer. You could factor the rental cost into your quotes and just try it out on a few jobs.

    How would you prune this tree

    The only time we charge a fee for quoting work is if they are far away or if they’re an HOA. We charge HOA’s $250 to come quote their trees because they are so difficult to work for.

    How would you go about choosing an entirely new location to work as a climber?

    I would be cautious making a drastic move in climate. You will have to re-learn all the new tree species. Holding wood tendencies, wound wood formation, pest infestations, fungal infections…it’s almost like starting all over in your career in my opinion.

    Estimates With Visual Tree Removal Map

    We use ArborGold. It allows me to keep a plant inventory and track the work we do on the property. It’s fantastic for the apartment complexes we work for.

    How would you prune this tree

    Most of the people who contact me find me on the ISA website and are expecting to pay a fee. I still always have some who don’t want to pay which is fine. I communicate very clearly that if they just want me to quote work then I’ll do that for free. If they want me to give my opinion on their...

    New Bandit chipper pricing,,???

    We ordered a new Kabota mini-excavator last fall. Took delivery in March. We could’ve turned around and sold it for $15,000 more if we wanted. We also locked in our order for a new Merlo in April, the very next week the price went up $6,000…
