A wire gate at 30 kn ? Damn am I behind on things

You think that's something? Did you see the double-wire-gates that Treestuff was offering last April? Clip from the left or the right.

 

[flushcut]

That thing was bad ass! I tried to order a few but they were out of stock.

 

[treebilly]

Yeah they were out of stock when I tried to order as well. You would think that they would have a surplus for such a high demand item.

 

[flushcut]

Right!

[sawman]

nice little dump
I been keeping my eye out for one
there hard to get a deal on one

 

[CurSedVoyce]

Few and far between here. I have another coming. But this was a good deal. Just been gone through and repainted.

 

[CurSedVoyce]

Also, I'll redo the stake sides with milled ponderosa instead of plywood.

that will look awesome
your buddys got a new mill coming?

 

[CurSedVoyce]

He purchased a Lucas Mill that we can set up on site and mill out logs with. So we will be able to cut 8X8s 20 foot long and then transport.

 

[flushcut]

Nice purchases! That dump trailer is a game changer.

 

[CurSedVoyce]

Moar.....

 

[MasterBlaster]

You need more red straps!!!

 

[CurSedVoyce]

Why yes, yes I did
Should be more things acquired over the weekend and beginning next week...
Let Mike take over my Hitch Hiker so I bought a #2 to play with.
Three climbers are going to be busy over the next two weeks.
Dave (thattreeguy) will be acquired at the airport Sunday.
Needed enough stuff to possibly be running 3 zip lines at once. Let along all the lowering and such.
Quite the little BBQ we will be putting together on the beetle kill trees.

 

[Mick!]

I know this beetle kill thing is bad......but it's been pretty good for business though, right?

 

[treesmith]

Stephen, what carabiners do you use for zipping?

I use these...http://www.wesspur.com/images/treegear/car306-500.gif

Just wondered if there was a better alternative.

 

[pantheraba]

The bark beetle kill in CA just made CNN television...they are saying it is the worst tree kill on record, over 22 million killed. Per the Governor to the Dept. of Agriculture: "In a letter to the Department of Agriculture, Brown adds that the state is “facing the worst epidemic of tree mortality in modern history.”"
