    Bandit Chipper possible options - and why.

    I'll post into this thread later but just heard of one more option I didn't even know was a possibility - Cory shared 3rd feed wheel motor. If you have a chipper built this info can make your chipper so much more useful.

    Camp in Old Growth?

    Not an endorsement - I just happened on this. I know people do this against rules. But, this is possibly legit. Thought someone would be interested.

    Giants Rising

    A fantastic documentary about the redwoods. Worth a google search and watching for when and where you can see it. My wife and I went to a showing in Sonoma CA with the Director and others speaking afterwards.

Once filled near the bottom first it closed a crack between the bearing housing and the dust cover which now allowed...

    Fall arrest harness for dummies.

    My neighbor bought two harnesses for me at garage sales sure that I could use them for something. Well meaning but WRONG. Free for cost of shipping to people that could use them on a rescue dummy. One shows a lot of dirt and is marked XXL or something (if it matters). One looks pretty new...

    Insurance rider - employee vehicle.

    Anytime an employee is using their vehicle to do business for your company or driving from the shop to job site (covid safety measure) - there's a separate rider for that. It is cheap.

    People can be out of sorts.....

    I consider myself a student of human nature. It has been eye opening to watch people react to things in ways that are not in keeping with their usual ways of being. One of the ways I enjoy thinking of our motivations as humans is through a model called The Six Human Needs. It states that the...

    Insurance for Class V Truck

    Hartford had us illegally under insured this last year, 300K instead of required 750K for a commercial truck in CA. Anyone know of a good company to check prices with? @chiselbit ?

    Write off trucks on income tax???

    Am having trouble searching TreeBuzz archives on both my computer and phone right now so I apologize if this has been written about before. My tax guy is focused on writing off mileage on my 2018 Ram 5500 hooklift truck. I didn't mind that on my 1990 pick up that was paid off forever ago, it...

    Self Loading Short Logger

    Is anyone aware of one 2010 or newer, preferably a Pete, preferably a beefed up frame and suspension? A friend of mine just had his time run out for his older unit being on the road according to CA emission standards.

    Stihl HT 101 and 131

    They have changed models a while back. Went from a round front tube to a squarish tube for one thing. I mostly bend my front tubes and drive shafts. On the round tubes I can put it in a crotch and gently bend it back bit by bit and get months more life out of it. The new square tubes look to...

    Replacement heater core - Aluminum

    Don't do it. I let my mechanic put one in because, 'there would be less issues with electrolysis.' There is also less heat, like 40% less or so. Not workable.
