Well played. When can I pre-order?

Treestuff is now accepting “pre-orders” let them hold your $500 and maybe get one in April.

I think the astranauts call that “extra vehicular activity” EVA

No human beings hurt. Big property damage for insurance I am sure.

Can it live to lift again? 1,300 construction workers were evacuated until the structural integrity of the building was assured.

The window opening looks like 30 feet above the elevated rooftop.

Had a small crane accident at work yesterday. No injuries, thankfully! I don’t know all the details and I am being intentionally not specific about the location. Let’s just say a tall tower under construction and a walk behind crane setting windows. Somehow the crane tipped or rolled out the...

I tried used rope once also. I appreciate your descriptions which evoke my experience. One image I used for extracting the core was “like Velcro…” I will never do that again unless it was some great emergency! It’s hard for me to imagine an urgent situation that I could not deal with using...
