Great! Where are you working? There is a brazillion things to learn from folks here, past and present. Post me pics. I use the New Posts button under What's New. Look for the Welcome New Member's Thread. The official "Welcome New Members" thread! -...

Awesome, it's my dream job. Chunked down a spar Tuesday and if I had known about your tip I would've been much more efficient and saved some effort. So much knowledge on this forum, very grateful for everyone that posts and I hope to contribute something soon.

Clean those cuts.

Hackery Apparently canker doesn’t discriminate between species of tree. Hopefully it does between flora and fauna.

What is your climate like? Wet winter's aren't an issue. Lush, irrigated lawns in summer are. How's tree-ing going? I'm SouthSoundTree on the Buzz.

Awesome method, thank you sharing this wisdom!

My first mats ever were black, I was so pumped up to show care for the lawn area but of course upon removal there were alot of nice 4x8 brown patches....Doh!!! :dude: 🤷‍♂️ :lol:

greenhouse white wash, perhaps.

I have no experience with mats, black or otherwise...but a sheet of black plastic will scorch a lawn in very little time, I have learned to my chagrin.

I've seen white burn a lawn. Anyway black is way better than nothing

yes, i like that technique, fast and easier on the body.

More rain. Keeping it saturated.

The squeals on the last clip were because the land dropped away towards a cabin. One of the lumps I knocked off rolled that way and wedged in between the trees and was a bugger to cut up. Hence the delight after we built a little catchers mitt to keep the log off the floor and rolling sideways.

Not posted in this thread for a while. Climbed and dismantled a decent sized spruce today. Had Haakon out with us helping in the ground. Surprisingly sound timber as at that size they are often decayed round these parts.

White paint? Or some white powder that might work it's way in and not wear off like paint would?

Tough question. I assume reflective tint on windows on top of IR absorbing coating, and either face mask or a face shield with the same coatings, but then you stand out just by wearing weird stuff. Light altering coatings on licence plates is probably illegal. Get enough people riled up against...

I've done it a tiny bit, above 45⁰ north latitude when it was in the 70s. Then, I mitigated.

I’ve used black mats for years, never once burnt a lawn.
