Isn't that just a Sugoi with a hand guard. I have both sizes of the Sugoi and like the bigger one. I use the Tsurugi for the really tight crotches.

Sometimes I get to aggressive with it, mainly on the pole saw with the Zubat blade, it either binds or gets pinched, bends and snaps. Never had a problem with Sugoi or Hayauchi on the pole saw. -I couldn't live without coms. I use the Sena 20s for my whole crew, also Trials and Enduro and...

Along with the Fiskers pruning stick (awesome) step up to the Sugoi handsaw. I started with the Zubat, but it's too small and fragile for most stuff in the tree. The Sugoi is bigger and more aggressive teeth to get through branches quicker. If you climb SRT, get a Croll ascender and the Petzl...

I use a cordless dremmel with a cutoff wheel. Works great, small, light, and easy to work with in the tree. http://www.remodelaholic.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/10/dremel-rotarty-tool-8220_hero_thumb.jpg

When you say you tie a running bowline to a 2'x2' log to pull into the crown to jam in a crotch a "pseudo grapple", why dont you simply tie the standing line to the base of the tree above you felling notch? The line runs up the tree to the crotch back down and you pull with that line.

-Woodworkingboy Wow, you really got me thinking about what you said. I usually put myself in the others shoes regarding noise, and I try not to work too early, but you are right with this lady. I never thought about migraines or mitigating circumstances. I just thought, "what a cranky lady...

That reminds me of a job I did on this last 4th of July. It was a wednesday, we were doing a half dead cottonwood removal in the backyard of a house, and a lady living in the apartment complex starts yelling at me. She's standing on the second floor of her apartment staring up at me. I killed...

Ive had a couple nick, and when they broke (always the black string) I simply brought it to home slepot and they said go grab another one. No paper work, no hassles, home slepot honored the lifetime gurantee! I tried to replace the black string with zing it, only its held in place with a...

Hahaha! Haven't laughed that hard in a while! I really lost it when you had to keep moving the tail out of your face to see what you were doing. I thought you wouldn't be able to get everything in the bag, and that you might come down with her tail still sticking out! Good vid!

UPDATE! Got it figured out. Man this one really bugged me and took almost 4 hours of research to figure it out. The problem was Kermes Scale and Botryosphaeria. Oak Tip Flagging — This summer you may have noticed that many black and pin oak trees had brown leaves at the tips of their...

Seeking the help of the extension sounds like the best idea, I will call them to see what samples I need to gather. The oak is planted in a fertilized lawn area, and he did recently fertilize.

Remove infected trees Trees that are infected with or have died from oak wilt should be removed and properly treated to prevent development of spore mats. These treatments include debarking, chipping or splitting, and drying the wood. Covering dead wood with plastic, burying the edges for 6...

No one else has any input? Guess I'll give the client the bad news. On a side note, I read that to prevent furthur spread of the disease, I need to wait until the tree is completely dead before I remove it, and furthur that I should trench around the tree at the dripline of the canopy to...

Crap... I didn't think it was in Colorado yet. I did do a cross section and a peel, and saw the brown circle in the cross section and the stripes in the peel. I'll give it another couple of days to see what everyone else has to say. Thanks Willie.

Hey guys, I really need your help with this one. Client calls me and says that over the last week, leaves on his oak tree started dying and falling off. I think this is Oak Wilt, but I am not sure. I treated the tree with Imidichloprid for aphids about a month ago. The tree is a Black Oak...

I wish I could wear gloves. Anytime I have tried with either nitrile or atlas, my hands sweat so much that my hands slip out of the gloves. I simply can't keep them on.

There is a sticker on it that says "Heddon Japan." After doing a bunch of research, it looks like the parts were made in Japan and then assembled here in America. My grandpa gave this reel to me when I was a kid, and he had it for some time before that. I haven't been able to find this...

Yup, sure does.

Did some digging around and found mine that I used to use when I first started. Interesting that your attachment point to the rod is on the flat side of the reel. With the throwline attached, I would simply click the ring of the throwbag into the carabiner.

I simply used zipties to mount it to the spine of the carabiner, works great.
