Good point, I hadn't directly thought about that.

@SeanKroll , my barn for the equipment, roof and one wall to block the summer afternoon sun. Next year I'll probably add the other lean to and maybe enclose the middle for a work space, although I may build a separate structure for the shop. The only unique thing is a felt like material on the...

What model tele? I want to look up the specs on it. I got to use my forks a couple weeks ago. Eating a lil breakfast while running the tele by remote😂

💪 Gotta like some Dino 💪 Yesterday as the last part of a bigger job, we had to clear the pine straw and such from this roof and gutters.

I think strength would be compromised, an inch of pullout is bound to be most of the full diameter burry.

A slipped splice is a failed splice. It's possible it could be reset, but cutting it off and resplicing is better logic.

Right, if you were negative rigging, it sounded like you needed more height 😅 Different charts for different cranes, that specific crane you could get considerably more height at 100’, but your capacity decreases by ~40%. Most cranes have a deduct for the jib being stowed .

Does the 45127 have the jib? I see on the chart doesn't favor using it at a 100' radius, but negative rigging to pick with the crane is also powerfully slow.

X Cut is worth it, in my experience, at half the price of Stihl chain when I priced compared locally when I bought a case of 72DL. It stretches far more than Stihl chain, but my groundie handles the normal saw maintenance so it's not as big of a deal for me. I'll check Stihl pricing next...

I have 7/8", I don't use it that often, but it's nice to have. With bigger equipment comes the option for bigger pulls, if you have the situation to make it make sense and the gear to pull it off. (punny)

I noticed the same, @Brandon , any word on what happened?

I'd stick with a class 1 rope construction, poly/nylon. As long as its strong enough, it's fairly well up to you, it would seem.

Are you knotting or splicing?

You’re extremely tempted to do snow removal in an area that practically doesn’t get snow problems…. I believe that illuminates the crux of the problem.

I took it to mean burning the debris.
