    O.C.G.D. Thread, part two

    Well, I kinda want the comparison to the Husky. I like your new one cause it's optimized for climbing, and no hook to remove. But if the Husky works better, that's what really matters.

    Thing is Sean, you can move a chunk 4 5 or 6 times heavier than you could push off by hand. especially big hardwood lumps that won’t move any other way. No need for anything but a straight through cut, put this in halfway through, chase the cut out the back, stow the saw, then lever it off with...

    A well-respected maker of solid mountaineering gear. Should hold up to the task, I would guess.

    How'd it go today?

    Final run up to a summer vacation starting Saturday. Today, a little final chipping onsite for finishing a 21 hazard tree contract for an HOA. Friday might have multiple snow-bent birches to prune. Not sure what I'll get into tomorrow. New part-time college guy went home sick yesterday in...

    Never used one, interested to hear the review. How heavy? How much power? How expensive? Looks like an ice ax handle.

    How's the splice today?

    I'll wrap these with a siezing, but that's normally how i finish them, and with a stick welder too.

    You were using a Husky previously, right? Have you used this one yet to form a preference? I've played with the idea of getting a felling lever. and I always come to "Dunno..." and drop the idea for awhile.

    I am a big fan of a little felling lever up a tree for pushing chunks off whilst ringing down. I lost my old favourite, so ordered this, specially made for a climber rather than a forestry tool used in the tree. Nice and light with a good lift. Plus a hole for carrying on the tool belt.

    How's the splice today?

    After the splicing, maybe you could hit the free little wires with a torch. A short but violent heating wouldn't affect much the cable but will blow away the single wires, like a fuse under a curent surge.

    Vicia cracca L is in bloom. We call this plant mouse peas. I wonder what you call it?

    What Non Essential Gear Do You Think Is Worth Owning?

    Ive got 2 of the 12" husky timber tongs, I dont go out collecting firewood without them, on slippery smooth bark they are wonderful compared to trying to handle them with bare hands/ gloves. Everyone who has used them has gone out and got a pair of their own after using them. I heard that...
