    Fellow buzzer has passed

    So sad and shocked to get this news. I spoke to Cameron a few times about his crane and working with his crew during sandy. He always came across as a genuine person and professional. I'm sure many will be reeling with this for some time and reminds us all just how fragile life is. My thoughts...

    Arbor-Jet Injection Question

    [ QUOTE ] If all you have is the Quickjet, then just do the entire procedure for each site (including infusion/injection), one at a time. [/ QUOTE ] This is the normal approach that I take, despite some difficulty with certain species we have seen some improvements visually in the crown...

    Arbor-Jet Injection Question

    I've got the ArborJet system (QuickJet) and we've been using it to treat several pest issues on common trees here in Hawaii. However, I'm noticing a challenge with uptake of the formula especially in Banyan species (I believe because of the latex and sap flow that develops once you drill into...

    What is the salary range for climbers?

    If you are doing the same thing you were doing in the 90's and making the same amount of money, I would say the problem isn't with the economy or a need to print more money, the problem is you. Times don't need a changing.... you need a changing. Adapting is crucial as the economy and the...

    what makes you the most money.

    I was amazed at the increase in profits that came with a larger chipper, a truck that could hold a large load of chips (reduces travel time in a congested area) and a mini skid. I'm all about doing fine pruning work and being a minimalist, but if you're in it to make a profitable operation I...

    Schoolyard Rigging

    Excellent vid that was fun. I could tell there wasn't as much room as it looked to run those pieces, I would have probably had the ground guy hold them up some to prevent tapping the roof. jp

    Chainsaw Climbing Pants

    You should check out the new Stein chainsaw pants (I believe they are called Krieger). I just got a pair a few months ago and I really like. I've been wearing them in Hawaii and they've been okay in the humid weather. jp

    Brush Bandit-1290XP=Bad Engine

    Jesse what do you mean the engine went? Did it blow a piston rod? Score the cylinder? I would think the cost of those machines it would be worth having the engine rebuilt. What type of engine is in the machine? jp
