Remember what you stated Sept 2017?:
"OK...this has had its life. It only takes about three replies for the clubs to come out.
Get off divisive politics with no goal of discussion. Only to create a reaction
Bob Wulkowicz had a wonderful way of describing this behavior.
He called it a 'Fart on...
Come on @Tom Dunlap. It's doubtful that anyone listens to this nut, but, I remember you censoring Treevet. The Senate Hearing Committee isn't going to call you to DC, but it does look like you're picking sides.
Nah...just mental flips. At light speed---makes himself dizzy; then we are cursed with the aftermath as it spews out here on this thread's endless pages.
Thanks @Levi.CO for dragging me into this mess. I have not been on the buzz in a month....when I logged on this afternoon, I saw that you mentioned me on pg 17. So I dutifully read the entire thread. I went through & liked many of the posts by @hseII , @Bucknut , @JD3000 & a few others. Overall...
This winter caught us a little by surprise... The last three have been fairly mild. But, so far we've burned a lot of wood this winter. So, I'm splitting the stuff small and stacking it in such a way, so as to maximize drying potential. It's a fun way for them to learn to structure things, real...
Sorry for the derail/rant.....
I took ballroom dance, golf, scuba (got PADI cert. out of the deal), etc. Didn't take tree climbing....took that Kindergarten through ~9th.....then, other interests came along.....
Ah,....higher education: the sacred cow of our current society. Where the professors and faculty are paid off in ever increasing salary and benefits, and the students are conned out of more and more money---increasingly without a job to show for it when the diploma finally rolls around...
Done right because------it's more about where the rigging point is in relation to the tip-tie. The distance & angle between the two were the "bad actors" in this scenario.
And--as has already been pointed out: this wasn't truly 'tip' tied.
*Like the thread, btw. Thanks Daniel.
This is very interesting! I am soon to be in the market for a bucket truck. See lots of them with the Terex name----and they look sharp....NOT so much anymore.
Seems to me like a rep would be poking around this forum and chime in with some winning, salesman-speak about how good their product...
My observations are that money is usually the wedge that drives apart relationships---marriage being no exception.
Fast growth requires large debt....large debt stresses the average individual out.....when the bumps in the road come (and they will come), the wheels fall off the wagon, so to speak
Is that a highway barrier wall in the picture behind the tree? If so, just fell it so that the tops break over the wall--then the road crew will have the clean up job. Charge her $100 :D
*oh, you might want to get out of there pretty quick too--after you drop it--those state police have fast...
Seems like you've found a pretty crazy place to work. Dangerous too!
In no way am I trying to split hairs---but, since you brought it up, there is one point I feel like commenting on:
I always start the notch cut with the bottom cut. In cases where precise direction is key, I want that gunning...
