    TH website malfunction. Anyone else?

    @Brandon I have two known threads that don't load under New Posts. I'll have to check under What's New. The Official Work Pictures Thread and How'd It Go Today can be found using the Search function. When I go to those threads, I'm arriving to an old page, which makes sense. Anyone...

    Statement questions as a communication tool

    You find statement questions easy to understand? Statement questions are confusing and presuppose something to be the case as compared to an open- ended question, especially in some situations such as in loud treework environments or emotionally charged situations?

    Ford 4r100 auto trans shift kit question

    I suspect/ guessing a troublesome shift kit in my trans from old oil making it sticky. Reverse engages at startup when cold. First gear doesn't want to engage for a short period, then will engage and act normal with full power, as much as I can tell. I'm guessing the oil warms and thins a...

    What would cause a water hammer-type of forceful turning ON at one sink but not others? Is it a faucet problem?

    Sawbuck project

    I built a sawbuck from scratch. My converted (long) pallet sawbuck is on its last legs. I have been thinking of how do build it for working height, sawing, loading and unloading. I'd been lazily trying to figure a design that would allow wood to fall directly into a wheelbarrow. This one...

    Echo rear-handle electric, charger, 5AH battery, plus free extra 2.5 AH battery, $300

    https://www.homedepot.com/s/Cs-2500t?NCNI-5&skipSpellCheck=true I'm hoping that this extra battery will fit my 2500t, and if not, still seems like a good deal for a niche saw.

    Lamar dump trailers reputation?

    Anyone know anything. Seems like a mid-price dump trailer. I like that they have a 6.5x 12', 10k, in stock, locally. I can use a bit of extra room for the miniloader and stump grinder being side by side, plus I like a little extra volume. I'm thinking a buying a dump trailer will be...

    How busy are you this year compared to other years?

    We're staying busy enough without advertising. Small crew and machines. Had an out of town contract-climber in recently for 3 days. Might ask him to come down again for a couple. Might just hold onto the work. Fruit trees and dormant season pruning starts in a month, bringing annual visits...

    Closing bar rails

    I bought a rail closer tool. I closed 2 by feel. My neighbor had a digital micrometer thar I can borrow. How tight is a new Stihl 0.050 gauge bar slot? How much do drivers wear narrower over the life of a chain? I will take a chain over there to measure some time.

    Pricing milled slabs and lumber

    Curious about people's thoughts. I've got to discuss some sales with a guitar maker and custom furniture builder for figured wood. Also, I can currently cut 16'+ beams and could get another section of track to be able to cut 20'.

    Retirement/ selling biz

    How long until you all are looking at one or the other? I've likely got another 15+ years, turning 50 this summer. Less climbing/field time as time goes on.

    Hiring: Short or long-term, Climbing, Groundwork, combo, advanced or learning

    Quick lunchtime post for lurkers or someone you all may know. I've got more work than I can shake a stick at, and just had a wind storm. Been working down these big maples, and saw 2-3 tipped trees at the adjacent neighbors to the job I'm on. I have a separate room (bed, recliner, table...

    Employee compensation and responsibilities

    I am curious about wages/ compensation you pay/ have paid for ground workers, climbers, and crew leaders. Do you have people who only do aerial work ( climbing/ aerial lift) and only do ground work? Do climbers always help on the ground after climbing, or are they done when the aerial work...
