thanks norm the better timber looks pretty cool ill have to try that one out. ive never used a knuckle boom before and it seems like there is a lot u can do with one. on removals i would like to try taking bigger sections of the tree off with the KB and spider leg setup. does anyone have any...
the city i work for just bought a new knuckleboom. i was wondering what diameter and length amsteel you guys are using? also what type of eyelet and what knots for rigging are being used? thanks
Re: hydraulic pole saw scabbard *DELETED*
this post is going nowhere. the reason i ask is i just started
a new job and all the older guys use them. im not relly to fond of them and thought that the saw scabbard would be a good
way to store them when not in use.
thanks for the input guys. i personally use the running bowline because its faster to tie and untie. and yeah its being used to tie off branches to be lowered. i cant tell a guy thats worked for the city for 33 years what knots to use. being a newbie that is.
hey i just recently moved to the west coast for municipal work
and my lead worker is using a timber hitch as a rigging knot
should i be concerned or can it be used in rigging branches down.i just think of it as a inferior knot. thanks
Looks like your company is doing a lot of good out there. I work for the city of Milwaukee and the work gets pretty boring from time to time. All my family lives in Ventura so thats why im trying to get out there. Have you heard of any other jobs in area?
Just wondering if anyone applied for this job. I applied and have an interview next month. Also wondering if anyone has any input on how they treat their workers or how the day to day is. Thanks.
cool, thanks for the input guys. sounds like the BFII is the way to go. one other question, does anyone know if the micro mouse pulley would work on the bridge of the BFII
