I have 150 and a shorter 50. I use a Milwaukee tool bag that a large saw/drill set came in. Works great. I need a bull rope now! I love gear and sure this will never end... My wife says I am obsessed. But the below around the house is much nicer now!

Awesome! Cool pics. Enjoyed this thread.

I will add this small piece of advice. Where you have the straps hooked to each otherr, add a few wraps of electrical tape to hold them together if you get any slack during the felling process. Learned that years ago , I always wrap my hooks( if they do not have latches) with a wrap of tape to...

Speller feller? You in Asheville? If so we need to get together. Got plenty of trees for you to climb!

Thanks, I looked at that post but got sidetracked on the first link , should have came back and read the whole post. Blacksmith, I live near Asheville.

Loved the video! I WANT one of those mini skidders!

Spinoff from my other thread. Besides wrapping the trunk or other methods for lanyards, let's talk about the first cut. Taking the top out. Seems that would be where to start... Went through all my books and they talk about the different felling cuts and cuts for working down the spar. Bit none...

Would love to see a video of that double. Impressive....most impressive....

Sweet! Zip lines are fascinating!

Fully loaded with gear I am 250-260. Little heavy for some of those spurs. Since this is more of a "recreational Arborist" endeavor, I just need to be comfortable for about an hour or so. I did some adjusting to the pads and straps and we took down 2 trees today. Basically just gaffed up about...

Flip line on the bridge when you start chunking down the spar?

Very good question! Tree splitting below the cut? If you are spiked in and on the flip line?
