    Replying to a Post

    Similar to your post and this one, but this way you know I replied and anyone looking can see exactly what I was referring to.

    Replying to a Post

    I don’t know that I ever really read all of a quoted text the first time through reading the reply, it’s just there if I need context. Or if it’s from farther up the thread, you can jump back to the quote to see what was going on there. I remember back when embedded pictures were controversial...

    Replying to a Post

    He was big on that, but it seems easy and sensible. No, but it’s easier to follow the conversation if others can see what you’re referencing. None of it is a declaration, just an observation. @cory responded to one of my posts today, I wouldn’t have known if I didn’t see it. If that...

    Replying to a Post

    Butch wasn't a fan of people using the reply function in threads... I'm sure he had his reasons, but in general, IMO, I think it's better to use them than to not. On other forums, it's customary to use the reply function even if it's just the last post in the thread. Aside from making it...

    The Official Work Pictures Thread

    I meant to post these pictures as well: Definitely a learning curve for me as I've never done board things (skate board, snow board, wake board)... but nothing crazy to get a basic competency conveying myself in public. There are people who can do gymnastics on them, I'm decidedly not...

    The Official Work Pictures Thread

    I’ve had this tab open since Tuesday on my phone, was going to make a longer video but haven’t made the time. Monday I put 3-4 miles on it driving from my house to the barn, then between the two jobs we did Monday. It was handy being able to leave the guys working and be able to move the MRT...

    Why high octane?

    Tree felling vids

    😂 I know him, he has a buddy that does most of the filming and editing. Our Manitous are the same max capacity but mine has an extra section of boom giving it an extra 13’ of height and 14’ of reach. Mine also weighs 8300lb more to accommodate that longer boom and I assume I have decently...

    Fixing a customers mess

    Mitigation work is mitigation work, regardless of how the situation was created. Predictable outcomes are usually fairly easy to come by, even if some of those outcomes are less favorable. When selling the job, those projected outcomes should be reviewed for acceptability... and part of that...

    Climbing the tree vs climbing a rope in the tree

    I haven't practically climbed for production in years, but I much prefer a high tie in. Based on that, I'd usually climb to the top, set my false crotch, then come down and go to work. The Wraptor made that much easier. These days if we can't get it with the telehandler, we have a 92' lift...

    Official Jobber Thread

    I'm grandfathered in at $39/month, so I doubt I'll be moving. It does what I need, plus a lot more I don't. You can easily export client contact info, the rest of the info is exportable but not as clean to import elsewhere I think.

    What's wrong with the forum lately?

    It's resolved. Most old school forums are dying, it's not limited to the House. Online forums were the social media of two decades ago. Now people like quicker turnaround and less effort. Youtube longer form content was a thing but now most social media is short form content Facebook...

    What's wrong with the forum lately?

    I have more, but @ it’s easier than an email and link.
