    Compact Bulldog Bone

    I think it's important to hold the idea of treating people how they wanted to be treated alongside how I want to be treated.

    How's the work flow?

    I talked to him a few years ago and he just felt he was getting better and better as he aged. Following him in our group - it was incredible to watch how proficient he is.

    Congratulations Gordon! Y'all look like proper links in an intergenerational chain, ...perhaps uncondescending to the midline attachments of life, well-adjusted, good looking without a penchant for frippery, and Buzzworthy. Puns aside, my wishes for continued success.

    I also have been appreciating them over the last five years as a contractor and as a municipal employee.

    What model battery powered saw are yall raving about?

    Which saws is it most like? Is it light and powerful enough for a reduction prune? Battery life? I've got serious love for the Milwaukee long reach lopper. No need for a ladder or bucket truck when working on young trees equates to making it easier to justify pruning them.

    What model battery powered saw are yall raving about?

    I'm a big Milwaukee fan too, but they have been inconsistent in their foray into chainsaws - the hatchets are not nearly as skinny as they should be and the tophandle is not as powerful as it should be (especially as compared to the Husky 542iXP). I've heard a first person account that the pole...

    What model battery powered saw are yall raving about?

    I don't think any battery saw is as good as the 2511t yet, for pruning... some of the smallest battery saws are very light to carry, but bog in the cut. Seems like an easy inroad for some chainsaw company looking to make a profit.

    ...and he can subordinate one of those leaders and further broaden the union angle with a cut at 12" above the union in the next cycle.

    Structural pruning

    Taking out the middle leader/s is often the best way to broaden branch union angles and provide nutrient flow to promote quicker compartmentalization of wounds. Taking off outside leaders is an Impulsive holdover of low limb lopping. Not saying that you do that - I know that you likely do it...

    Propping a tree?

    You could chop it to leverage the taper and start it on a moyogi styling. Then transplant it a few iterations later since it would still be small.

    Burning out

    Charge more, work fewer hours, consider shuttering the business. I shuttered mine and it was the right thing to do for me, at that time. In part, I was burnt out and sensitized from customer interactions. I also noted that the reason I started my business no longer applied. My new municipal...
