    He's going to put his new backhoe to work, for a good part of a day, he says, and do the final pulling with his knuckle boom.

    Knocked down a Doug fir for a friend. Wood will go to a friend of his. He wanted big logs. Wood racks were expendable, but Just missed. Lucky today.. Let Erik get some Ogre time. Dumped the butt... Rusty at double- cutting, but fit it in.

    I hear that last bit, from my forays with 40/ week, and biz on the side, and one young one.

    Justin, I realized that waiting until I had the duckets around to pay cash wasn't getting me a Wraptor. The new loader is under the philosophy of making payments or making repairs. I can't make a repair on my wrist, in house. I have used Wraptors before, at work and Zipfest. I know the increased...

    What do you think trade in value is? Loader is around 8 hours. Wraptor 5 minutes, run time. Backhoe, here I come! wooooooooo

    Paul, thanks for the discount. I put up the non elders Wraptor thread to build publicity, and maybe bring in new TH blood from people internet searching for wraptors. Are you still providing a demo unit? Might be some inclined. One of those things that until you use it, it's hard to justify...

    75', a pull of the trigger! Climbed 15' to scope this broken for for the bid from another vantage point. Bid about 3k including crane at $600-1000. Probably maybe need the jib to dangle off. If the top shifts and drops free, I am concerned it could spear downward and flip over backwards or...

    I did some London Planetrees recently with the dual filter disk respirators ($30 at Home Depot). Blew ourselves totally off with the backpack blower. Not a problem. Dust masks don't do it.

    I keep getting funny pictures added in from somewhere from Tapatalk. You can see through the buckle. Looks like a brown rot in there. A shell. I don't have a lot of faith that it will stand back up. I will climb a neighboring tree once my Wraptor arrives, and I get permission from the HOA...

    Top is about 15 degrees from vertical. This pole is 30-40' closer than the tree.

    A doozy to bid Doug-fir, buckled at the regrown, single leader jog to the right. Leaning into a cedar. Broken at 50', 120-140' tall. 46" diameter. Open truck access up to 5' from the tree. Thought is to tie into neighboring tree to inspect, possibly work of some large limbs that are not...

    Finished up for now with a job that has dragged a bit. Add ons that sorta swirled the project up a bit rather than being straight forward. Prettied the dogwood bed up, scheduled for anthracnose spraying next spring. Lawn needs de compacting and watering. Build up a bid of a soil mount over a...

    I can hire anybody I want, except a minor, without additional paperwork. I will get fined if I get found without insurance in force on the guy. A new hire also has to be put through the child-support system. Here, if you get behind no child-support payments, they pull your driver's license to...
