    Old school v.s. New school

    I like mine medium length hurts my hips to make it too short. But if someone is gonna switch between SRT and DRT an adjustable bridge would be great. I found Richards video about it.

    There's a little device on treestuff called a Roll N lock. Buy a length of rope bridge and put the roll.n lock on the outside of your bridge plate. Stopper knot in the end like usual, zip tie the roll N lock so it stays put. Adjust it to your desired length.

    SRT removals are amazing. Once you get the hang of it, you'll never go back. I don't even spike up anymore on long ascents. Much more efficient to climb the rope. Set one good TIP and you're good to go. On some removals I don't even use spikes until spar work. It also changes the way you work a...

    Work is at an all time Low

    Get paid first, unless you want to take him to court. It's already apparent dude doesn't GAF about you. He probably won't pay you if you give him notice.

    Work is at an all time Low

    Or if you sell a big removal, I'd be happy to charge a day rate for me and my equipment to come out and play.

    Work is at an all time Low

    If I were in your shoes, I'd solely market proper pruning and do a couple jobs a week. I've had decent success selling pruning by the hour, and its good money. You'd make more in one day of pruning than 2 days working for those jackasses. And do it your way.

    Thought about it, but it wasn't original. Was going for something that hasn't been done.
