    Also I understand you can’t compare 70’ of stick to 70’ of knuckle. Knuckle is way advantageous in many situations

    That looks awesome. You would much rather have this than a 17 ton stick crane with the same reach but a much bigger chart, I’m assuming?

    Chain organization

    I am even considering color coded ziploc baggies. I feel all these boxes take up unnecessary amounts of space

    Chain organization

    Oh cool, thanks. I have been trying to find something like this: https://www.amazon.com/Semi-Rigid-Assorted-Better-Office-Products/dp/B07MVRYH4V/ref=mp_s_a_1_55?keywords=pencil+box&qid=1579987724&sr=8-55 Not sure how they’ll hold up or even if all the chains will fit. I keep them organized in...

    Chipper Falling Apart

    He tore down the engine and realized the oil pump was out of balance. No more shaking. Eight months after initial repair I think I just might have a working chipper :)

    Chipper Falling Apart

    Yeah all of the mounts seem to be tight. It originally needed to be rebuilt because someone had put the wrong bolt to hold in the pulley on the crankshaft. That pulley fell off and tore up the crankshaft. It looks like the shaking was happening because he put the same pulley back on there and...

    What do you mean it’s not the same as when you bought it?

    Chipper Falling Apart

    Perkins/Cat 3054c. I know people say these engines are junk but I had zero problems with it the first two years I owned it, I might only need it for another couple of years

    Chipper Falling Apart

    It is rattling from the engine though, the disc is consistent with what it used to sound like. I have heard people had a bunch of stuff break off of dingos because the idle was set too low from the factory.

    Chipper Falling Apart

    I just paid a lot of money to have my bandit 250xp engine rebuilt in June then had to put it back in the shop shortly after to get the injection pump rebuilt. I feel like I have barely got to use it till these past two months. Even when I first got it back with the engine rebuild I couldn’t help...

    Im new to the business, but never climbed before. Any advice?

    I don’t know if that is fair to say. I do agree it is a very good show and I personally am a fan. However I know of people that will never get into it simply because fantasy is not their thing. In your OPINION it is the best show but to say it IS the best show is not right. How could you even...

    That drink you made looks tasty. What flavor is it? I want to start drinking but I have trouble with the taste of alcohol. MASH is my moms favorite show I have never really watched so I don’t know how I like it. One old show I really like is “The Andy Griffith Show” I watch it every week.

    Would you use collateral for a loan?

    Would that be cheaper to put a gas engine in there? It seems like super custom work and redoing everythinggg on the chipper. Even though the engine is much cheaper don’t you think the whole project would end up being about the same? So I think the engine is a 3054c 130hp Perkins/Caterpillar 2500...

    Would you use collateral for a loan?

    For a new engine it will be $15-$21k. For a 2008 bandit 250xp. My bank account has more than that in it but is it wise to spend almost all my money on this? Dealer will give me $5k for my chipper as it sits.

    Would you use collateral for a loan?

    Yeah that is the one thing I am worried about... I feel the emergency fund would be the best. If I got hurt I am the only climber. I only have ground workers working for me. Even if I could get the insurance that would cover the cost of the chipper what would my ground guys be doing? I feel like...
