Today I did the biggest removal I've done in quite a while. A huge oak that had been pruned and pruned over the years until the first limb on the tree was over 50' up. I was only able to reach 3 limbs from the bucket. I ended up climbing the thing, rigging out 6-7 big leads one at a time, then swinging down into the bucket to grab the leads and crane them to the front yard. I also had to plywood highway my way in across 100' of perfect lawn, set up partially under a smaller oak and I had to crane down every last piece of trunk as well. All the wood was set to the side as far in front of the truck as I could reach, then I had to set up again in the front yard to load the trailer. Trailer has the heaviest load I've ever put on it. I think I stripped the tongue jack unhooking the trailer in front of my house, but it was after 6pm and I have no place to dump it until tomorrow.

I'm tired.
 
The bath room looks good B .You can spend more on bathrooms and kitchens than the whole rest of the house .40 square feet of tile is not cheap but try for 800 like I just finished in Dec .

In other news I got my big thyratron tubes to repair my Monarch lathe .With some luck I'll have by baby in new shoes come afternoon next .:D
 
Lordy, I hope it was more like kachingkachingkachingkachingkachingkachingkachingkachingkachingkachingkachingkachingkachingkaching. :D
 
finally back from setting up sound for a concert tomorrow. what a pita. Ancient 32 channel board with wires plugged into every orifice, no one knows what they go to, no one around who has run the system before,:what: controls that don't do what they are supposed to because someone decided to patch something into something else. :|:took 5 hours to get any sound to come out of the main speakers, two out of four band members showed, so I get to run a full sound check tomorrow just before the concert.:roll:
 
Helped my dad put a new tub in, my arm is fine, but my bad knee has been killing my the last 2 days. Got an rts on the handle I sent out to cut 4 fun, I gonna resend it tomorrow, but right now I'm self medicating with a bottle of scotch and a half dozen vicodon.
