    That seems very accurately put, Justin.

    Insect and bites

    We used to do a lot of Giant hogsweed removal, so last time we ordered a pallet of goods from Bailey's, we included two machetes. Richard claims that if you drill them full of holes they'll be light enough to use on Giant Hogsweed. We never got into those nasty weeds with them, so now they are...

    Really? We agreed to train two climbers for one of the major companies here about 5 years ago. They pass a lot of work to us when they are busy and I have had a real good working and personal relationship with the woman in charge for years. So we figured there was nothing to lose by teaching...

    I uess I must be doing it wrong. I use an angle grinder with a rubber back plate and a 150 grit sanding whatzamacallit. Zip-zip-zip-zip, done!

    Nope, I'm lazy when it comes to stumping. We'll do the small ones in gardens, anything bigger, we let those other guys at. As long as I got plenty of work, I'll rather do almost anything else than grind stumps.

    That is how we do it. Anything up to 1½ foot diameter, we'll do ourself, bigger than that we sub it out to a company that has a 138 HP Vermeer grinder. Neither of us enjoy hanging on the Bandit all day, chewing away at a big stump.

    For that price, I wouldn't even grind that stump. Unless it was part of a package deal with a lot of other stumps. You'd do better to find some one to subcontract stumping for you.

    Just to nit pick a little. The umlaut ¨ is not used in Danish, so it should be either hå hå hå or hæ hæ hæ .

    Jose, my man. I've never questioned you about anything. I've tried to tell you in a friendly way ( Or at least what passes for friendly in my neck of the woods) to turn down your act a few notches. Mostly for your own sake, since it doesn't matter a whit to me if you get yourself kicked out of...

    Might be some cultural difference in that. I, as a Dane, constantly have to watch myself here, since I'm used to be able to take the piss on people in the worst way without them being upset about it. Danes are notoriously the people who can take the most in being made fun off/ ridiculed...

    As for the warranty on Stihl products, you get 2 years here, except on the pro saws, where it is one.They have to comply with local regulations. Since I could wear a limbing saw out in a year in my pulping days, no wonder they don't give a 2 year warranty on them. A good dealer is worth more...

    Jose, I think most of us have been in that situation. Smarts like hell, but it is one of the hazards of this job. Just be thankful that you didn't hit a nest while up in a tree. That is a BAD situation.
