We have a week of introduction basically. Day one is keep yourself out of harms way and step in to grab brush or work around the chipper with another crew member to start while we discuss what you know or don't know. After day 1 and what we learn, the pace of learning or working the new guy into...
We've met some different rock climbers and tree climbers. Either way it was a bit of an uncalled knee-jerk response to the first comment there so I apologize if that rubbed you wrong.
That second comment was the most rock climber shit I ever heard. I hope you throw your carabiners away when you drop them on the lawn from waist height. You know, microfractures.
I have some used thick skin should you find yourself butt hurt from my comments. That said, it would.likely be life...
Lol. Why are you even in this thread bruh. Why are you assuming the guy hasnt inspected until he was selling? Why are you assuming he doesnt know how to inspect it? And have you don't your good deed of letting everyone know how scared you are of used gear by going thru every thread to warn...
No I pulled desperately to get enough cover taper but I'll never go that short again. I meant to be 3+" longer but didn't account for the length lost due to getting wider at the splice throats
The Embers are definitely warmer and are not a year round pant. But there is something to be said for a cold weather work pant. I love my clogger zeros but in sub 20*F (particularly on windy days) areas with less of the chain saw protection are a fair bit colder than the rest of my pants, in...
I just realized i follow you on 3 different social media platforms i feel like your strange rope stalker.
Thanks for taking the time to update your instructions
The ability to pick a limb from under the canopy of a tree (looked like a beech tree too, of all canopies!) and bring it out to open space cannot be under appreciated
I heard this before but was hesitant to drop 5% on a boat load of jobs. Some I'm sure we will go to and find we were on the lower side when priced originally.
I appreciate everyone's responses. My personal thoughts on it were to take on what storm calls we can within reason, for a set amount of...
@deevo @ROYCE @oceans you were top of mind to ask
So we are typically booking our schedule 6 weeks out. We had a storm roll thru and we are months out. We are working out thay scheduling, mixing what is now left over non emergency storm work with regular work.
I have no idea how to manage...
Yale maxibraid is a flip line. It's not a climbing line. Again. Trying to use a rope for something it's not at all made for. No one is trying to say you're new to tree work. But someone can climb with no rope and two lanyards for 20 years, come onto treebuzz and say "why are you even using...
@Willber can't have a really tight eye with 48 strand 3 carrier ropes. And it will knot like absolute shit. And the self abraiding nature of dyneema as a Rope core make it terrible foe ddrt climbing practices. I'm beginning to believe you are not listening to anyone who knows what they are...
