Adjustable piston stop

Checking out Arlington Garden in Pasadena. Look at the burls on this Peruvian Pepper tree!!

Good question. When climbing with TreeCareLA crews we would sometimes stop on the way back to the shop (usually if Oscar is on that crew) and climb avocados in parks to harvest and some of them are loaded with fruit and are not yet 30 feet tall.

Back in Pasadena. East coast arb at a disadvantage out here, not knowing the local tree species. What can you left coast types tell me about what might be happening in the neighbor’s avocado tree?

I use a combination of Rock-O and DMM Ultra-O carabiners. They open in opposite initial movement directions which keeps me aware and alert.

3/4” Marine plywood comes in 5’ x 10’ sheets. I built several chip boxes using it and it holds up well.

Trump meeting with Orban right after he met with Putin - so an intermediary. Apparently the lot of them are hell bent on destroying NATO. And this rundown on the stated goals of the 2025 Project includes their stated policy of deregulating big business and dismantling the EPA - wouldn’t be long...

We had a spare trailer full of tires: tractor to small auto size, that we would stack to about four or five feet tall and then place plywood over - dropped massive trunks across drives that way with no damage. Now with the crane there are years of vine growth over that trailer out back of the farm.

Happy 4th to all who didn’t have to take the 5th about the 6th!

2 3/4 yrs old and foot 2/3rds the length of mine, and 40+ pounds - he is going to be a big boy!

Sunscreen applied, hat on head, ready to go to the zoo.

Cloud watching. Chilling. Lots of chasing each other around. Trip to the nearby park to play on the jungle gym and slides. Also a visit to the Iron Hill Museum where his mother when she was 8 years old won the competition to name the taxidermy bear (“Blackberry”). A nice hike through the iron...

Four of the five children and two of the four grandchildren here - the fun (joyful bedlam) began yesterday and continues unabated!

Set your email filter to automatically drop anll the TS emails into a separate folder. No need to even look at it, but if and when you need something you’ll be able to quickly see if there is a current sale/coupon code available.

Got back to a routine after trip to Oregon. Got an email from the president of the Portland turners club that hosted the symposium. After having flown home for the symposium he had flown back to New Jersey to continue his trip around the states, having left his pickup and gooseneck travel...

I made my adjustable lanyards out of three strand for years, with a ramshead prussik for adjusting them.

I thought it was mainly haulback that runs slow over bridge…

I started on Manila with a tautline hitch back in 1974-1975, and tightening it and rolling back the part of your tail as it crept was just part of your day. It wasn’t until about the mid 1980s that we got our first synthetic ropes, settling in 1987 on New England Safety Blue but still on a...

Been so tired lately that I wonder if they make home deliveries!
