    Broke two rules and paid the price.

    I wish you a solid and speedy recovery. Do you happen to have the chaps still, or a picture of of them after the incident?

    TCIA WTF?

    There is another side to this: How was the AI article received by those who read TCIA and are not aware of, or participate in these style of online forums? The target audience is not us after all. Was it a success? Did they also get the ick from the AI generated reporting format? Wonder if...

    Rope grab recommendations for rigging

    Thinking outside the box a bit with this suggestion but what about repurposing a foot ascender like the Notch/Harken Jet step? Might have to get creative with how to attach a pulley to it but as far as easy on/off, gentle interface camming devices, I don't see how it wouldn't work.

    Possible damage from impact of felling a large tree close to a house.

    Check for underground utilities like gas, water, fiber optic, sewer etc. I've had limbs pierced 2' deep and puncture a water line before.

    Wtb mini porti

    I misspoke here. Good catch. I confused my fiber details. I meant to say it has a poor, relatively speaking, melting point.

    Wtb mini porti

    Careful with that. Amsteel is hmpe fibers. They don't handle shock loads or abrasion well. It's meant for steady static loads to get its strength. Shock load it and it'll bust before polyester line will.

    Rope Runner Vertec Limited Edition

    Brah, this is all well and good but for someone who was as involved in the heart of the industry as you, to utterly stiff other positive contributers in the industry, via this very forum, via this very type of sales post, we absolutely deserve to know the details, and resolutions to those...

    Am I going a little overboard with this?

    You're initial question is asking others opinion on if you are going overboard. You even acknowledge that this might be anxious behavior. You could have framed the question as "Is black knot harmful to people?" but you asked about your behavior around it and then shared tons of details about...

    Sounds about right. I think the drums are are in the $900-$1000 range.

    Am I going a little overboard with this?

    If you want to hedge your bets, look into using alkylate 2 cycle fuel. ASPEN is the og alkylate fuel and now Stihl offers their motomix as well. Don't quote me on this but I think these are the only two alkylate premixes you can get in the states. I use ASPEN all the time. Good stuff. I think...

    Am I going a little overboard with this?

    I have never once thought, or heard about black knot being harmful to humans. But in that vein, if you are this worried about black knot or someone else eating a sandwich with dirty hands, you better not research what's in the 2-cycle exhaust of your chainsaw that you are huffing a foot from...
