Agreed, but that's why the arbor trolley or similar carts are so handy, you can stack that 6' high and pile it all right there by the chipper in a ready to go pile. Baby stuff like that is what cnd chippers were designed for, so that's right up my alley

I would imagine it's all smaller stuff that chips easily, i would love that, no material handling equipment needed.

Try it someday, i bet you like it!

Never wanted to try climbing?

Yup, I'm back finally, and hopefully I'll be able to finish up some of my projects to help me along as i go now that I'll be able to buy parts lol. Doing a tree job every couple weeks or so will greatly help out, and I've got a few of them lined up.

Blown up ancient silver, part of a job. Deer eating dinner off in the fields, didn't care about a saw at all, granted it was mainly a battery one tho :lol: The other tree is younger but a horrible pruning cut from at least a decade ago has led to tons of rot on one side, so much so that i think...

It definitely jerked it over, but that's also a more risky method because it can cause the tree or rigging to fail, pulling off limbs or breaking rigging (which could be fatal with a shackle or something flying around). I'm a huge fan of knowing exactly the force I'm working with, and everything...

Rig up some gin poles for him on his truck or something, even manual lifting with leverage is far better than just grunting stuff. You can use a chain fall instead of a winch for a lower cost point and sooner availability, then add a winch later as he sees how nice it is to lift and move stuff...

Man that would be so damn handy to have one of those!

What's this overkill thing you speak of? :lol:

Is that a porta john?

Man basket on a crane or simply climbing out to it for the weld?

You don't set a line and climb it on rope? Being in illinois I've never done a palm but i would have thought that was the way.

My luck i would trip and spike my head on it or something. Years ago (before i was born i think) we had an ironworker fall from height here into some rebar on a bridge job, terrible to even think about :( that's why they require those rubber end stoppers on them now, at least pad the pointy...

Did you mean rings?

And a block has a better bend radius with far less friction, allowing more of the rope to be loaded, spreading the load over more than just the end.

Blocks are better on the rope anyways, efficiency is a thing. I'm kinda surprised they haven't made a giant radius one yet, one that was actually designed to give the recommended bend radius and support the rope better, basically a non spinning pulley shape. More bulky yes but better for rigging...

That forwarder setup is so cool!!!

I always figured about 500 lbs per yard.
