    An nk b&c for my 2511 and a PrisonBlues hickory shirt... I'm hoping for a performance boost from the b&c and the shirt is a replacement for my work shirt. Maybe... I could end up liking it too much to beatup at work. I rarely buy new clothes. Most of my stuff comes from the thriftshop, but I...

    I keep my helmet in a cat food bag hanging in the back cab of the truck. The bag's mainly to keep sun off of it when it's not being used. The only time I notice the helmet smelling bad is when I've bagged it without drying it sufficiently. My main goal in washing is to get the crusty salt off...

    No real way around that. I wash mine roughly quarterly, with the four times clustered tighter around the warm weather season. I use water, and Dr Bronner soap to wash it. Massage into the textiles, especially the sweat band. Rinse and air dry thoroughly. When you're finished wearing the helmet...

    Speaking of which, I need to wash my helmet. Outside looks good enough, but the suspension could use a good cleaning. Maybe I'll do that today.

    It would be a little fiddly, but you could hitch a ring above the unit for a cradle throw. Might even be able to put a ring on the unit itself, but that would be somewhat destructive.

    I noticed that also. I cradle throw 90%+ of the time, and I wasn't excited seeing their solution, but it isn't something I've ever tried, so I reserved judgement. Glad to hear it worked well for you.

    I tried this once on a locust. It didn't work. The slot the throwline was in was too deep, and rope wouldn't ride up.

    I'll be interested in hearing what you think of it. If it works as indicated, that's something I'd like to get.

    I like the honkin' big bumper. It's a nice platform that can turn into anything you like. Once I was done pissing myself off by beating my legs on it, I think I could get a lot of use out of it. The winch is icing on the cake.

    :^D You may be right. I have a bunch of trees dropped that need to be dealt with chipper or not. It would be great to be able to deal with the chippables, but if not, they still should be piled somewhere, and the stems moved. Good weather's coming to an end. It'll be awful here shortly.

    What a $500 box looks like... That's twice what I paid for my pc, and it does all kinds of shit. The only job the box has is to say "Spark now!". Debating on driving up Sunday to install it. Weekends are already short. Dunno if I want to ruin half of it by getting pissed off. I may wait til...

    I got that much cause it's so cheap($321 shipped with coupon). My immediate desire was 200' for light rigging, but I feel that with it's low price, light weight, and low bulk, I'll find a lot of other uses for it, and it's right there to grab as needed.

    Went out for firewood, and it was like jul came around for one more shot! I'm posting here cause I think it all qualifies as "gear". The salmiakki from @stig is for getting your head right to get into a tree with a running saw :^D Stig sent me the salmiakki after the first shipment went...

    Thanks Knotty! I'll keep these guys in mind when I need a new work saw. I recently bought a used Corona folder. It cuts well, but when the time comes to replace the blade, it costs more than the whole tool. That's ridiculous. I'll get the one you got, and save some money. The Corona's just as...
