    Hydrophobic soil

    My experience at my house this season was the first waterings seemed like it was beading up and sheet draining off the crusty/hard soil surface…. Eventually, second time around there would be some decent soil penetration achieved, it just took some patience…. Slow and low flow is key. It’s...

    More crud to fuel the existential dread…

    @evo sorry about the link… yes pretty much, but more from grow at home kits, and improper disposal.

    TCIA Tailgate Safety Manual.

    One thing I liked about the TCIA book, is you could submit for CEUs if memory serves well(?). I’ll look into this for sure as well. Thanks for the tip.

    More crud to fuel the existential dread…

    What started as a gourmet mushroom may be turning into a large-scale unintended biological invasion with potentially serious consequences for forest fungal communities and the ecosystem. Worth paying attention to….. especially for any of us working in the trees. White rot…. There’s the quick and...

    helmet with mesh visor

    I buy my protos when they come on sale from any number of the suppliers….. usually 20-25% off…. To me it’s worth the investment as you can buy/replace all the integrated components…

    Question on life support carabiners with auto locking bypass feature

    For me, I love the chunky steel snaps found on most steel core lanyards…. There are enough reports of those ISC snaps opening or failing without all three actions being intentionally engaged that it makes me question how much we should rely on “compliance” alone. At the end of the day, we’re...

    Maintenance… daily or when needed?

    @richellulu you should check yourself for lumps on a regular basis.

    Question on life support carabiners with auto locking bypass feature

    @Phil ”It has a feature that prevents auto locking....” I think that statement isn’t entirely accurate. When the gate is opened, then closed, it is in the locked position. Ultimately, your decision to remove these from service for new climbers is yours to make, and I wouldn’t fault you for...

    Just like any other triple action gate.

    That is correct. Thankyou for articulating it in a way I could not.

    Question on life support carabiners with auto locking bypass feature

    I like these biners. They automatically lock when gate is snapped closed. Never been a concern for me. Makes life just a little easier when setting up hitch based systems. Not a deal breaker one way or the other for me. Send me your ORCAs if you don’t like them.

    Stump Cut Troubles

    @Dan Thornton just for a data point: How does the saw cut everywhere else leading up to the stump cut? I think @Bart_ and @Reach nailed it though.
