    Spiral grain

    What do you know? Observe? Consider about spiral grain? I saw a conifer near Mt. St. Helens, laying in Coldwater lake, fallen post-explosion. There was a cavity on the side. There was straight grain inside with a shell of spiral on the outside. Beware stumpshot and spiral grain.

    Eppel Epple hook pics

    I think someone recently asked for pics. I happened across it, thinning or gear from the truck. Are three different hooks in the truck too many hooks?

    Tree video drama

    It's weird. I just saw another "oh, I shoulda..." video by the same YTer who had screwed up many jobs. Poor judgment and unprepared. "Shoulda put a rope in it" instead of trying to push a big top...seems like "I shoulda been prepared with wedges and pounder and not relied on groundworkers to...

    Morbark TW-280PHB chipper

    I see that @flyingmosstreen has this chipper, too. I ran a pile of brush through my newly aquired demo machine with 46 hours of use. So far, so good. More machine-feedable than I would have guessed. Powerful at 59hp. Compact and lightweight.

    Light 14 or 16" narrow kerf bar for 200t or 201t

    Any recommendations? I have a good moderate hour 200t with a stock (heavy) b/c. Might buy a new 201 if they can be economically upgraded with drum, bar and chain. Is an .043 clutch drum available for a 200t? Mostly cutting softwood. I'm getting accustomed to 1/4" in 193t and 2511t.

    Skylining micro-chipper into forested work site...ideas.

    Not sure on nomenclature. Thoughts on wire rope or 5/8" stable braid as a skyline. If like to move the 450 pound chipper about 75' across the forest. Tall trees are around. Headed downhill to work site, then back up to the road at the end. I could probably reduce the weight by 100 pounds...

    Mini and micro chippers

    I have a Lot of tight access jobs where chips can stay onsite. My miniloader has 15 gpm flow IIRC, powered by a 32hp Diesel. I'm curious about Mini-loader chippers. I'm also considering a Eliet or similar. Thanks for any input.
