    BMG Giant 254's

    Hey guys, if you haven't seen them check out the new Giant BMG Edition loaders Top Notch Equipment is selling. Probably the best compact articulating loader on the market right now for tree work. No plastic panels like the Avants had, and with the dual tire option, you can fit through a 36" gate...

    TCI's Effer 655 Knuckle Boom

    Its called a shelf cut. It creates a little ledge for the piece to kind of sit on so it doesn't roll or tip too much as it settles in the rigging. Just makes for a smoother pick.

    TCI's Effer 655 Knuckle Boom

    Yep, Dad still has the family business going. Dayton is only 2 hours away from home and we work 4 day weeks, so often times I'll go back home to KY if Dad is busy and work with him Friday-Sunday.

    Whats up TreeBuzz!! Long time no talk! Man, its been awhile and a lot has changed, both here and for me! After a lot of traveling, I ended up taking a full time position here at Tree Care Inc and I couldn't be happier. Working with this knuckle boom crane is bad ass! We're back to making videos...

    Anyone done a Grapple/Chipper Truck Combo?

    FYI, Royal Truck should be avoided at all costs. Not a good company to deal with at all. The stuff they do to a truck is unreal. We have a first hand account of it, and a good friend had a buddy that worked for them that told us some horror stories. Our chip truck had a bondoed hood, needed a...

    Can a chipper wear out or work too hard?

    You're right and wrong Tom. Chipping everything possible is faster. But the bigger the wood, the more wear and tear on the chipper. You're gonna be going through knives faster, putting strain on not only the engine, but the radiator as well, which is the big one imo. That radiator will be...

    Dump Trailer with Mini Skid Ramps

    Give Top Notch Equipment a call, they go through Midsota but Dave is a great guy to deal with and sells a lot of the trailers with the platform on the front for the mini.

    Looking for a new stump grinder

    Re: Dingo/Toro STX 38 How long did it take on the big stump? I've used a STX26, not impressed by any means.

    Dump Trailer with Mini Skid Ramps

    What are you looking for exactly? A dump trailer with a platform on the front to store a mini on? Or just a dump trailer with ramps? Midsota makes both, to your specs. Very happy with the trailer they made me so far.

    dangerous trees 6

    I love how your camera man said at the end 'like a charm, unless it rolled into the street.' Why didn't you secure the trunk when you made the release cut? What made you so sure it would remain standing after the release cut was made? If the trunk had failed, and since you had no other safety...

    [ QUOTE ] Danger....where you been? [/ QUOTE ] Been busy with work. Its just Dad, bro, and I, but we've been busier than the last few years and a lot more productive with some recent equipment purchases. I drop in from time to time and try to post when I can.

    Pruning a 350 year old tree

    [ QUOTE ] So what I saw was an old hollow linden fully exposed in an open field, I would say the tree was extremely prone to failure. Not having laid eyes on this tree in person I'm only assuming that the failure point would be the butress or lower trunk. By putting a bunch of cables in the...
