    Not much to qualify for tree work. Made this go away with the 2511 for a friend. Started on trailer load of oak logs into firewood.

    Basic Insurance

    Y'all might plug "liability" into the search function...there are multiple threads on the subject. Not to dissuade anyone from giving you input, not at all.

    Basic Insurance

    My friend who works for a tree company here in NC asked me to get liability insurance so he can use me when he needs me and pay me as an independent contractor instead of hourly on their companies. Is liability all I need when doing tree work? What liability would experienced climbers...

    File guides

    I use JB Holdway’s idea of using a golf ball as a file handle. Works great.

    File guides

    I’m talking about the generic one that comes in any sharpening set you see on Amazon…. I can hand file…. Well I think I can I just want to see how my chain compares to one used with the guide…. And I just flat out can’t file the little 1/4” pico stuff on my pole saw so there’s that.

    How'd it go today?

    Possibly just frostnip. Right thumb and index are tingling. In more exciting news, I had to run the mill for a few minutes yesterday. It looks like that ball bearing in the belt tensioner was making all the racket. :dance: A pretty easy fix, other than the shroud making it difficult to put...

    File guides

    Spiral cut files removed the need to twist, I believe. A properly tensioned or tight- for- sharpening chain is important.

    Italian made Oregon 511A. Looks like I have three thin grinding wheels (smaller pitch chain), one medium wheel ( I think it was sized for 73LP) and a new raker wheel still in cardboard.

    How'd it go today?

    It did get up to 7.8 by the time I got the fuel filters changed on the skid steer so my mother could feed the cows. I may never feel some of my finger tips again.

    Brilliant! Laying a tree down gently

    Hello again! Very nice showing, ty. i have been able to trick that out a small number of times all the way, but did use back cut; just to a very thick hinge. And did have to sneak into the batter's box a number of times to alleviate stall. Really want smooth flow, no stall to build internal...

    How'd it go today?

    It was a pic posting test. I needed the most random pic I had and well what’s more random than an ear of corn on a tree forum?
