    Seeking input on a total crown reduction job

    In my experience reducing red maples that much in the first dose will make too large of cuts. This will lead to lots of sprouting, but if you pollard that's fine. If the client want to maintain a structure and shape that is natural I try to keep my first does cuts under 1.5 in. And give It a...

    Ascent line

    I used HTP for over a year footlocking, rope walker, and rope wrench. It was great for rope walking, but it was a bit too heavy for FL.

    looking for a new rope bag

    Friction Savers....PulleySaver

    I tried the mini cobra insert but it isn't stiff enough. Granted I was using hollow braid, but even with the added stiffness of double braid I don't think it would work.

    Friction Savers....PulleySaver

    This is my best attempt. Tachyon with polymer insert in the eye. Quick release snap from a horse lead. 8mm OP spliced on the rig. I will probably never splice 8mm again. Its just way too hard, but Treestuff didn't have the spacers when I got my pinto. Also after trying a true pulley saver I am...

    Best Tree Book

    I own a lot ot tree books, and have cleaned out several used bookstores in my search for new ones. That being said Donald Culross Pettie is the best mix of ID, history, and lore I have found. I love the drawings so much I have them as a tattoo. I have the eastern and western and combined...
