Do you even agree the decision to cable's a lifelong commitment Guy? Should a proven durable support system be replaced with an inferior and highly flammable system? Jomo

That ain't what their YouTube installation shows for "proper" Branch Savior tensioning. Quite the opposite in fact, or they wouldn't be using mechanical advantage to tension their system "properly". http://youtu.be/LXdLs_TANG8 Jomo

I certainly salute n give props to the lads at Morbark Guy. Such clever caring lads..... Jomo

Wisdom is knowing when you're not needed, and acknowledging when both tree and owner are better off without you charging them for this n that, unless warranted by a genuine defect. I often wonder if we cause more tree problems than we solve? Planting unneeded time bombs in client trees ain't...
