    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...

    Clarity of responses and readability in debates within threads

    I've notice that when a post is not including a quoted post, nor immediately following the quote being responded to, nor mentioning someone's name, that it is hard to follow who is addressing which point. I know I'm guilty of not being clear and proofreading. Sometimes I am awake in the...

    Take your time up there, folks. Local climber fell.

    I got word the other day from a local tree guy that his good buddy, the climber on their team, dropped 60', crushed ankles, emergency back surgery, and in recovery at Harborview Trauma in Seattle. Happened spitting distance from my house...I'm on 49th just off the main peninsula road, this...

    Drone recommendations

    I'm interested primarily for video for hooking up and backing up trailers on my own. I have a lot of tight and winding driveways with poor visibility. I want to be able to inspect trees and TIPs. Recreational use beyond that is fun, too. Around $500 or less is ideal. I'm happy under...
