    Milwaukee telescoping polesaw

    I just picked this thing up, my first milwaukee power tool, and first impressions are great. I've only used it on one job and I believe it cuts faster than my stihl ht131 did. I originally planned to pick up the quick connect version of the saw and I found a video showing the performance...

    mini grapples.

    Who here runs a grapple rake style grapple for a mini skidsteer? What brand do you have? Pros and cons? I bought a cheap one just to see if I liked it. It works great for my business 85-90% of the time. I also have a BMG for when it won't work or if the BMG will do a certain job better...

    Stump clean up efficiency

    I have recently been getting several stump clean up jobs. Almost all stumps that are ground out (by a subcontractor) are left as a no clean up. If the customer requests a price for clean up the sub would always handle it. Recently he's decided to not clean up anymore as he is retired and...

    Cabling this Birch tree

    A customer has a Birch tree that saw a significant load in January during an ice storm. He has asked me about cabling the tree back to the other leads. Upon inspection the trunk does have damage where it started to fail. Minimal risk, it's near a home but out of reach. I would definitely...

    Frozen mini skids

    We've had some fluctuating temperatures this winter (7° two days ago and a high of 45° today) and it's led to mud building up in the tracks at the shop on warmer days, then it's freezing solid on cold mornings. One day it caused the track idlers to freeze and that put the tracks in a bind...

    Buckeye hinging

    I've got a Buckeye tree to remove with some backlean and limb weight over a fence and deck, and near a home. It's not a large tree and I have plenty of pulling power to overcome the lean, but I'm not sure I've ever felled a Buckeye before. What kind of hinge wood should I expect at the...

    A no dangle grapple

    There are old threads on here but nothing has been added to them in recent years pertaining a preferred mini skid grapple. I currently have a knock around bmg and I do like it, however after owning it 5-6 years I am wondering about buying a different style to compliment it. The BMG is great...

    teupen tc69a hydro fluid

    Posting for a friend, but he's looking to change the hydro filter after some erratic behavior from the lift. The lift was working correctly and suddenly started doing 2-3 movements when he only called for one. Many suggestions on what could possibly be the problem, stuck solenoids...

    Dirty Graphix

    I have a new bobcat mt100 with only 40 hrs that is already seeing quite a bit of damage to the decals. It's not really an issue but I'd like to keep the machine looking nice without replacing decals monthly. I ran across this business online. Has anyone used them for a vinyl wrap on...

    Lightweight ring and ring rigging sling. Thoughts?

    Im going to try this sling out for lightweight rigging, any concerns that I haven't thought of? The material list is listed below, apart from electrical tape which is just used to tidy things up. The Delta link is used as a single side midline attachable, so the midway point of the rope...

    Petzl Grillion

    Just passing this along to anyone who recently bought one. The rope was installed backwards in the device, causing it to not perform correctly Sent from my SM-S908U1 using Tapatalk

    CMI ropejack

    I've owned a rope jack for probably 7 years now. Great piece of equipment for a quick mechanical pull especially if your mini skid is already busy with another task or if you need it up in the tree. After several years of use, my handle was slightly bent which didn't affect its use and...

    WTB non working sena smh10 pod

    Just need the pod (battery pack/Bluetooth portion) either a non working one or an unused one that you're ready to part with for cheap. I am looking to run a few tests/experiments with one and would rather not destroy one of my set that I use in the process. Thanks. Sent from my SM-S908U1...

    Fallen Hawk

    I'll start by saying I know nothing about these Hawks in general or what type of Hawks these are. We've had hawks around our home for a number of years and despite being a chicken owner, and losing a few to them, I've always enjoyed watching the Hawks. Last year I noticed they built a nest in...

    Growth on limb

    I spent yesterday afternoon building a loft bed for my daughter and decided it'd be a nice touch to build the ladder out of limbs. This was a spur of the moment decision, so I went out and grabbed random limbs from the debris pile, not even sure what the species is. We woke up this...
