    Bid that tree!

    2hrs no rake looks right to me, scots pine has crazy fiber. Always wild how a limb will hold on and on vs other conifers.

    Work Photos

    @evo Do you have suggestions on bolting small stems like that when frozen? Have a split tree lilac and small j maple that clients sent photos of from the last storm, wait till spring or bolt now?

    Why Is It So Expensive to Cut Down a Tree?

    Rich clients can swing the increase, but maybe not the average person. SP500 has about doubled in last 5 yrs for those of means who have large sums in equities, you don't pay tax on unsold stock but can leverage it. Adjusted numbers from neat graph $1.25 is $12.99/hr $6,900 is $71,680/yr...

    Happy New Year

    Maybe I need to give them another go... Kidding, they hate me, but glad they work for you. Happy New Year, wishing everyone the grit and energy to show kindness to themselves and others, as well as the oomph to stand up to those that don't.

    Wtb 4x4 chip truck

    Love the square bodies, worth paying a quality tech or that era aficionado to look it over. Could get expensive quickly at that age. Crispy brake/coolant/trans lines and couplers, mouse eaten wiring, color/smell of exhaust and how quick it clears, cycle to start for glow plugs, boot conditions...

    Wtb 4x4 chip truck

    I have a '04 6.0 from VA which I had studded/deleted/head gasket etc before bringing it home. Few issues here and there (diesel anything is crazy expensive), had no-start after it was hot this Fall and had new HPOP and stand pipes put in. FICM and glow plugs a bit ago. Actually really like it...

    Wtb 4x4 chip truck

    2020 was many yrs of rampant cost increase, $150/hr mechanic now vs $100 then, my mini was $28k then and $40k now! I'll give them a call though, got another quote for a Voth ~$20k just the box and hoist.

    Wtb 4x4 chip truck

    Any one have one to sell or leads? New with chip body is ~$80-100k, got a quote for a 9' aluminum chip box ~$28k installed. Cab and chassis gas f500 is $55-60k or so. Love the short wb for our area. Treetrader etc have 20yr old trucks for $30k, man I hate vehicle decisions vs equipment!
