Suddenly my pics won’t upload anymore. Anyone else having this problem?

I’m looking for a grinder, rg50 or bigger or something comparable. Also looking for a bucket. Under cdl, chip box, diesel. Looking for quality on both. Been seeing a lot of crap out there.

...years of tree work I feel like I need to write up something to educate home owners who are having tree work done. Mainly that I can’t float the f*ing tree out to an abandoned lot where we process it. Sometimes even when you rig things down and use mats and try to be as easy on the ground s...

I don’t work on my saws (yet) . I take them to a local saw shop but I’m beginning to get aggravated with them. It seems like saws last about 2 years before I end up putting so much money into them ( and lost time) that it’s more worth it to just buy a new saw. I’ve talked to several other...

We did a job the other week and the home owner made this sweet video. <iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/Z_mNd265WQU" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen></iframe>

Recently someone gave me a action cam and a bunch of attachments for mounting but none of them seem to work well on my proto. I’m interested to see how others have theirs mounted and more importantly how you maintain the correct viewing angle. I know they tighten down but I would think it would...

I got to hang with my neighbor the other day. He’s got a little 5 horse bandsaw mill. We did a few black walnut logs and a couple cherry. Now in a year or two I might be able to use it.

A client of mine has a beautiful dawn redwood about 19’ from his house. The tree is 36”dbh or so and maybe 60’ tall. He is of course worried about roots busting up the foundation. I may have convinced him not to remove the tree and instead install a root barrier. I have never installed one...

So I found a guy who can split bulk firewood pretty cheaply so I decided to sell wood this winter. I?ve been reading what other guys do for loading it and a surprising amount of people load by hand. Even people with equipment. This has also been my experience with other companies that I?ve...

I recently got everyone new proto helmets with the sena coms. It hasn?t been that long but I?m not sure if I ever want to work without them now. Especially since we got the mini our days have become a lot noisier. The safety aspect is great of course but I?m excited about what it does for...

I mostly go on the treehouse from my phone. How is it that one would post a video?

I went to crane school this week with one of my employees. Not to operate but to learn the latest techniques and check out some iron. It was pretty cool. One of the few places where you have actual field experience. Riding the crane, setting straps, cutting, all of it. We were using the quantum...

Are there any toro reps on this forum? Id like to hear what you have to say about this. I bought a brand new dingo tx1000 this year. It's a great machine but not without its problems . There seems to be a design flaw either in the tracks or in how the tracks are held on the machine or both. I...

I am once again looking into Getting a mini. Ive been renting it for a week at a time several times already this year so I might as well buy the thing. Definitely want the articulating grapple for it. What do you guys think of the one that tree stuff sells? Any recommendations?

A customer of mine has a Yucca plant about 3' high that has fallen over. I don't know much about this particular plant. I'm gonna try to stand it back up and prop it. How hardy are these things. Any suggestions on what to use for props? Do you think Yucca's are likely to root back it or should I...

I was training my nephew to run the mini the other day. He did really well. I stood behind him most of the time but I had to let him do a little on his own. He is the only boy in the family right now. All if the cousins and siblings are girls. He was bursting with excitement to work with me...

I did some work for a guy recently clearing a bunch of trees to make room for a giant star he was having made. A local weldingredients shop built it, local electrician's wired the lights, local lineman set some poles to hang it from and then my buddy and I came back to set the rigging for it...

I set up a sweet zip line the other day for a sycamore over a bunch of wires. Had a good video too but it accidentally got erased. So here is a diagram of what I did. I've done simple versions before but this was my first time being more technical about it. The control line and pull line were...

I climbed what I can only guess was a dead maple the other day. No room to drop it or bomb anything out but there was a nearby tree to rig things to. Most of the bark had fallen off and it had a lot of cracks. What I thought was interesting though was it would pop and expand a little as I would...

Climbing comp is in 2 weeks. I've been footlocking once a day for a week. Usually after work when I'm already tired. I was terrible at first but now I can do fifty feet in a minute. 2 more weeks of practice and I should do alright. I won't be able to do 20 seconds like I've seen other people do...
