On an another tree, they nearly ran up our legs.

Needs that song, move bitch! get out the way!

OMG that squirrel 🐿️!!!! Best slo mo ever! :lol::lol::lol::lol:

Was it a brand new chain or a chain that is cutting like an absolute razor?

Wedges aren’t that effective in trees with large canopy spreads. You might get the log to tip but the back weight can balance out a lot of wedge. My SOP for big pull trees is to cut some of the back weight off first. They had the gear on site it wouldn’t have taken that much more time to rig...

Multi-prong approach. I have wedged some big trees. A bottle jack, if you don't have a real tree jack is a whole lotta 'go over there" with plenty of tight wedges. I've only jacked big trees with Silvey jacks. He called for more rope force which went from whole lotta (insufficient) pull to...

The monster thin steel wedges they used to tip the redwoods before jacks. I’m not dumb enough to think you could wedge a tree with essentially cedar. I’ve tried euc and it doesn’t hold up.

Or rent it. Or take the bosses gear out for a side job......

I doubt that they are brand new. Just saying... Easy to get a new truck and vehicle wrap, hi-viz and PPE'd out and look pro with minimal experience. Easy to have the same reliable equipment for a long time if you aren't breaking or losing it, if you bought quality, and have it look...

Congratulations on the progress!

I made good progress on the tractor today, despite frozen fingers. One of the battery nuts was seized, I've never seen that before. Now the stud just spins in the battery.

The trick that can be hard for some operators on the ascendant side of experience is actually realizing when they are wading into dangerous waters. Without that, the "rethink and do whatever needs doing" that @Mick! speaks of will be hard to stumble unto. Like @davidwyby's grandpa says, "they...
