    Stihl MS150T

    Anyone used this saw yet? Looks like a great lightweight saw for deadwooding and pruning trees. I use my silky a lot in the tree, but would love to have a really light saw to bring with me. My 192T was a faithful companion for almost 6 years and though not comparable with the 200T it served its...

    Palolo Valley pines & Rainbow Euc

    Some footage from this last week. The pines were pretty straight forward, I lost all the footage from the day before we did a banyan over the same house and had to setup a cool floating TIP between the top of one of the pines and another tree way up the hill and crank the banyan branches up to...

    Diamond Head Monkeypod with Hitch Hiker

    Here's a short vid from yesterday pruning a monkeypod with the hitch hiker. Once I got the HH dialed in correctly (the right direction on the wraps) it runs very smooth. After using all day I definitely am loving this new tool. Thanks Paul! jp:D <iframe width="560" height="315"...

    Ford Aft-Axle Steel Fuel Tanks

    I'm posting this here to hopefully save some potential headaches and $ for housers down the road. Apparently Ford installed steel after axle tanks in their F450/550 vehicles from about 99-2010. They used a metallic liner on the inside of the fuel tank. This liner was supposed to prevent rust...

    Oio Pine Video

    Looking to buy ms660?

    I've got to step it up and buy a bigger saw, it's long overdue. Been borrowing big saws from friends when the need arises. Figured I would buy a new one at the local stihl dealer here but the prices in HI are ridiculous. Anyone have a used 660 they'd consider parting with? I know this is a long...

    Rope wrench revelations....

    I've been following all the SRT hype for a couple years now but never really got into actually working a tree SRT. For long ascents I'd either Rads or frogwalk up and then switch to DRT. Well I finally decided to give the rope wrench a real try and have been using it pretty regularly for the...

    mini loaders

    I'm going to be looking at buying a mini loader in the next year, I don't know anything about them (in terms of what brands are good, what size/type engines to get) except I know I will want to get a BMG from NordicDave to fit on the loader. My goal is to get a dump trailer and a mini to feet...

    Guide to Plant Appraisals

    Anyone have this book? I actually was going to buy to get ready to re-take BCMA but the book is over $100 and even more than that on Amazon. I was hoping to maybe pay shipping to borrow for a few weeks to get ready for the exam or if anyone has an older copy they want to sell? I did lousy on the...

    200T?

    Anyone know where I can pickup a 200T? We can't get any at any of the dealers here in HI, knowing Stihl that may be the case across the country. If anyone has an extra one they'd part with :lol:. Just casting a line, thanks! jp:D
