    With a couple boom rebuild it made us feel more at ease. Everything boom wise is brand new. I don’t even want to say how much they put into it. We have a 38 ton and we are probably going to sell it. I like the kbooms but i just feel the productivity with our crew is much higher with the stick crane.

    Ha yea he is wrong, definitely needs a cdl. My crane doesn’t require a plate because the permit is considered the registration. Most of the permits will be auto issued so it’s pretty quick to get one. Maybe an hour or so.

    Haha i still have the shirt I got you from you too!! Yes it’s a daily permit but most of our jobs are close so the permits are pretty reasonable.

    Hi Cory, We purchased it from shawmut, came from a tree company. They did a complete boom overhaul prior to our purchase of it so everything boom wise is brand new. Yup we are still a small crew, just 4 of us. We do a lot of trees haha. EAB is still hitting us hard so it’s going to be fantastic...

    After a 13 week wait our new chip truck is finally done. Kenworth t440 with a 20x8x8 body built by timberland trucks. Hope it gets delivered by mid week!

    Thanks Corey! We are very excited. The 23 was nice but we were always pushing it to the max. We were able to get a very good deal on this one so the upgrade cost wasn’t huge. Can’t wait to put it to work next week.

    Best lube for bucket/basket axle

    I use lube-a-boom on our crane and bucket. They have a spray lube too. Works fantastic.

    Did this Pin Oak yesterday. Went pretty quickly. Tree was down, brush was chipped, wood was loaded, and crane was out there by 12:45.

    It’s actually a 2007 peterbilt with a cat c16, 18spd, and 625hp. It’s a monster! I would love a rear mount swing cab next but the crane company we rent from has such good rates and awesome operators it’s going to be hard for us to spend that kind of money to upgrade. Our crane in the grand...

    We just got the log truck a couple months ago but it’s really nice having both. I haul for a couple other companies around us so it’s a pretty good money maker. The crane is great too, it’s always nice being able to use it whenever possible. I honestly don’t think i could give up either one...

    Paul the bucket just makes it so fast. I’m always waiting at the next pick to set the rigging and it makes those big trunk pics a lot nicer!
