:big-love: That's an awesome work, both by figuring the complex shape of each part and by the skill needed to carve them so precisely.:big-not-worthy:

About 0.05mm so 2 thousands, average measured with a digital caliper, not a micrometer. I guess it's called a slide fit.

The second main bearing on my chipper's rotor didn't want to let go, and consequently, the puller changed a bit its chape. Chinesium, but still, that's a lot of force applied and no move at all. The new bearings were delivered today, so I had no remorse to cut out the stubborn bearing with the...

His equipment has improved. He has a decent saddle, new climbing boots, spurs and a bike's helmet (funny but efficient). No climb line yet, so he appears limited in some moves, but still, he's amazing. I have a huge respect for him.

Maybe as a non destructive proof testing or you pull on the splice at a convenient value to settle it and get it ready for use.

The other day, I was listening some modernized old style of music and I came across this one. I know nothing about the original piece where this song come from, but the characters have some resemblance with two figures making the news since a good while. It made me laugh.

You make the scale, that was a monster. Poor tree, the top is as bad as the trunk.

I took apart my baby chipper to replace the main bearings and other things. They are worn out and the rotor is touching the side plates of the cutting chamber. Press fit and rust on the shaft make a good workout to remove the bearings. One done, but I feared to break the puller. It turns out...

It can be useful if you want to have an accurate value instead of guessing when rigging or pulling stuff in tree work. There are circonstances when we come close to the limite with the gear (close or even a bit more...). The scale may help to stay reasonable and not overload the gear or the...

So few sound wood is left. Damned fungi. If it wasn't this storm, it would be the next one, or even just crumbling apart from his own weight. It's so sad when these ancestors come down.

I never said that practice isn't needed. Where did you got that? Stop making your own version of what other people said. I'm impressed by how often you misunderstand the meanings in the exchanges. I didn't invented it, you just said this in the post 788: So, this knot certainly doesn't qualify...

You don't have access here with the 6x6 ?

No, I didn't miss the point. What I say is that no matter your pertinent info in between, "super safe" has nothing to do with "a lot of things could go wrong". Practice all you want, if something could go wrong, you can be sure that this will go wrong, just add time, repetitions and a variety of...

Weather keeps changing continuously. Not only day to day but by hours. Sunny, cloudy rainy, cold, hot... Not matter the clothes you wear, you are wrong. Silly.

In conclusion, "a lot of things could go wrong", but it is "super safe". Seriously ?

i thought about using two poles to prune the limb's tips (or dead wood near the tip), one is the pole saw and the other has a grab/pull hook. But operating the pole saw with only one hand would be a pain, borderline impractical. Beside the weight itself, the leverage differential between 20'...

So, I was wrong in guessing the respectives diameters for the holes' implantation. The pump's mount is bigger than I thought at first. This sounds pretty solid now. I guess you used threaded inserts in the plate to bolt on the pump's mount. I'm not familiar with these components. Nice milling...

Big surprise yesterday morning in my garden, I saw a fox sunbathing on an old pile of chips. Big surprise because that's far from a wild area, more like a relatively dense urban environment with fence walls almost everywhere. I saw previously foxes time to time but only in the country nearby...

I guess that's an hydraulique pump, so the unbalance can be discarded. Probably not a bent shaft nor a bad bearing. It would be nice to have a pic of the other parts and some measurements because it's hard to tell what goes where with certainty ( perspective and different pics) and the system...

Negative point : He set a couple of very high cuts, probably to make the trees fit in the landscape ( fence or whatever). It's a fail because the tree on the left ( on the front from the lay's point of view) barberchaired its stump instead of its trunk, so, the fallen tree wrecked the same area...
