I joined the treehouse a few weeks ago and have posted some and met a few of you already. That being said, my name is Chris. I've been climbing full time for just over 3 years and currently climb/run a crew for one of the big tree companies. Grew up in Maine but moved down to Maryland about 5...

Here's a few of my observations about the article: -two of the 8 or 9 pictures in the article show a Safebloc with an improper sling (some kind of tubular webbing sling, not the 3/4" t-rex sling that was described as being used in the article), one of which shows a failure in the sling. This...

I don't do any of the bidding or writing up contracts, I'm just the crew leader. Its definitely a good lesson for the future though. TreeMuggs, did you get any pictures of where the lead broke out?

Thanks for putting that video up, I think we all benefit from seeing stuff like this, especially as a reminder to listen to our gut.

Is the Carlton pretty comparable to the Bandit 250 and the Morbark 13?

Wish I could go for a drum chipper, I'm on a limited budget right now and most used 990s are $20k and above. I'm looking in the $10k-13k range. The 990 is a nice chipper though. Gerry Beranek mentioned the TH in his interview on youtube. I've browsed through the threads a few times over the...

Which engine did/does your 13 have? I've heard the John Deere is the one to get. As far as diameter capacity, the bigger the better so thats good to hear about the Morbark. Thanks everyone for the welcome

Hey everyone, I'm newbie to the treehouse but after looking at some of the threads I already feel comfortable asking for advice. There's clearly a lot of experience here but without the pretentiousness you find other places. I'm looking into buying a chipper in the 12" range for weekend tree...
