    SCAM 3:1 MA and Remotely Retrievable Redirect

    Any thoughts on how to set this up remotely? I'm using a pole saw to throw a bight over a redirect, then bring that bight back to my saddle to clip into a biner. This gives the same 3:1 MA, but does involve some rope on branch friction.

    The Super Stevedor Knot

    Your "Super Stevedor" is basically a modded truckers hitch. Not complaining, just saying. Might try it out. Low & Slow.

    Stihl 661 Problem

    My new 661c does the same thing. Flooding? I just do what the manual says: put it on "run", squeeze trigger, pull cord until it starts. Takes about eight pulls.

    anyone use gecko II spikes?

    i bought the geckos II last fall & wouldn't have any other climbers. very light-weight, easy to cinch up super tight, hardly notice they're on. definite good choice.

    Saw bar for cutting curves

    I don't need a curved bar to cut curves. I've learned to sharpen chains for that Amen to that one!

    EFCO

    Stay away from it. Bought one in a pinch after I let a trunk roll over onto my Shindawa 357. The little Efco is orange, made in Italy, and severely cuts out on power. Turning it upside down for a cut is a joke. My next climbing saw will be a Stihl.
