I went very close to a disaster. One of my two ratchet straps holding my baby chipper broke on a sharp edge. The chipper backed a bit on my trailer ( not much because it's a tight fit), popped loose the flimsy locks and the tail gate fell on the road. I didn't heard a thing, beside the...

Very hot here too. Yesterday; it was still 98°F at 18:00. A thunderstorm came during the night and cooled down the air a bit in the morning but that didn't last long. I had to stop several times due to overheating. Monday will be even hotter.

Then, I guess that I'm a little on the stubborn side. :D On the other hand, I move quite slowly on the rope, so I usually have enough time to react and not put myself in a dire situation. The first beard's hair stuck in the descender in quite a while is my remainder that's about time to trim...

Indeed, but it's ballsy to tow that with this truck.:dude: I'm sure the local officiers would agree that the numbers aren't in your favor here. I even doubt that I could drag only the trailer alone with my van.:D

It's fascinating to see how the flight mode engages right on when the time comes. No training, even no previous try, just go ! :dude: Comparing that to the struggle lived by the human baby to just stand upright.

RE the stump grinder flip: it was secured before the crash, there are still two chains hooked at the front and and a binder lays on the trailer's back. Something may have broken.

For sure in turning and maneuvering, but even the straight path?

Just a minor offense to the flag's color, but that'll do it! :D

What amazes me is that the engine is still running. Usually, this sort of event brings the apocalypse inside (youtube data sourced).

Or just huge safety factor, depending on the possible bad conditions of use, like rubbing, sharp edges? Likely the opposite, but still severe usage related : I had a neighbor working for the rail road company at a trial area for fret. They had ropes cut in relative short length to pull the...

Me too, since a good bunch of days, just a little rain last evening and night.

No no, it's still the same side. Look that relatively to the front blade.

Better safe than Sorry. Without the black line as a guy, I'd say that the primary lean will win as soon as the trunk will begin to move substantially. So I guess that the landing area would be about where is the pallet of hollow concret blocs in the case of a slow pull or a natural fall. I...

I know that you said it's fine, but i can't avoid to feel a pain inside when I see that landing.:blob6::crazy::D I'd like to have a guess of the impact force sustained by the trailer. There's surely a formula to find that but I don't know it.

A messy tree entangled in a messy wire work. What a mess! By my favorite amazing Vietnamese climber.:big-not-worthy: I promise that I will not complain anymore about what i got on the job sites.
