    Two leaners - tapered hinge/wedges

    You are right...Burnham has gotten on to me -- errr, suggested -- the same thing before. It does have some bodacious dogs on it, need to be sure I'm using them whenever possible. Thanks.

    Two leaners - tapered hinge/wedges

    Thanks, Squisher, but it is a win-win. The feedback I get is excellent...I give as much detail as I can so that y'all can dissect it as you have time...kind of learning on-line.

    Two leaners - tapered hinge/wedges

    I took these two down Saturday...both had a lean towards the street (and the power lines), maybe 15 degrees (a swag mainly). The drop zone was perpendicular to the lean, bordered on the left by some pines along the street and on the right by a car that the owner said couldn't be moved.
