    Stephen has a few. I hate them. They do work though... Regardless, B, thanks for your input, it's always appreciated!

    Gaffed my rope the other day, and that cost me about 25ft of my Tachyon. The local Ace had Sampson Vortex on sale. Got 200ft for $163. No shipping, no waiting, great deal. Gonna have to buy another rope bag though, coiling rope at the end of the day, when your arms and hands are shot is total 🐂...

    Before and after, (with LTNI {Local Telephone Network Interface} in view) plus a rare shot of the whole crew! Maybe not perfect, but everyone is in the shot! Smooth, like butter, sweet like candy. There's nothing like a crew that just fits together.

    Crammed the back of my left hand on a stub, full force after it slipped off the pull start. After that, I guess my vagina started bleeding... Luckily I bitched out at just the right time...?

    Mrs.NewBooty is my 500i. Stephen ain't that pretty. He also has no ass to speak of. Pics from last week. What he lacks in ass, he makes up for in brass balls and pure skill.

    Before, at the start of the job yesterday morning, and the after is today. Was a good day. Frank's wife joined us, and that's always nice. That woman could out work many men that I know. She rakes like the mess offends her, and she keeps the tidiest burn piles, bar none. Also, she is a...

    Yeah, you or I, but David is a ground pounder. He might make things horizontal, but he don't get vertical.

    Those are sketchy. Terminate with extreme prejudice. Hack away with a pole saw to get that dead out of there before you walk in.

    Oh hey, before I forget, @Maximalist thanks for the video, I do appreciate the effort involved, even if I'm gonna keep doing my thing my way. Still, like many here, and as I have said before, I'd love to spend some time working with you and share a meal. You are obviously a true professional...

    Spent many hours running one myself. The old Macs with auxiliary oilers are about the only saws that last in the shag bark cedars back home. I think an Echo with auxiliary oiler would work well too, but I've yet to try, and don't plan on dealing with those crap trees anytime soon, they don't...

    My little brother's old Mac. No antivibe, no problem, in fact when she's running properly, she kinda fun to use. That said, Ms.NewBooty has the stock suspension that everyone gripes about being too soft, and I'm not going to change it. Definitely need bigger dogs though.

    Yeah, I let the saw swing quite a bit, at least if there's room. Where I hook my saw leash to my harness is about center of my back, so if the saw is dangling, the load on me is symmetrical, rather than the saw pulling on one hip or the other. Less fatigue means a higher safety margin and higher...

    What about blue diesel? Is that even a thing anymore? Dad used to call it "fleet fuel". If I recall, it was commercial use only, kinda like the pink stuff is off highway only.

    Yall see this stud? You can tell lookin at him he clanks when he walks, without the harness. Also, I see a fellow Unicender user, what's your pro/con list for it, sir?

    Charge him a day rate and lace it out. Prep it to be climbed in the future, because he will want it.

    When I say nit-picking... one little clump of mistletoe, and yeah that dead spike. Not much else came out of that tree. Honestly, we'd do well to make a visit in the spring, for easier deadwooding. With these blue oaks, it's kinda hard to tell dead from dormant right now. Got my throw line...
