No my ladder, I’m a keen advocate of the new ladder technology.

Roger B has/ had a 40' ladder that was really helpful, but a beast. I helped him and another climber strip a 170' sequoia. Taking the Stairs was a win on that tree, for sure.

That one is a triple extension, but normally I just take 2 pieces (as in the photo) as it’s a bit cumbersome otherwise.
The sight of ladders in my work photos has drawn some amused comments from some peeps (not you Sean, none taken)
Saves me energy scrabbling up the first 15ft, what’s not to like?

I doubt it but who knows?
He said he wanted it cut to 50cm and left, they often ask us to cut it into halves and quarters, the answer is no.
Job is good value for him anyway so a deals a deal.

Mick, is it still the trend to stack firewood in longer lengths? 50cm sounds about right. Are the called billets?
The three winters I spent in the Alps that seemed to be the norm, that and a sheet of corrugated iron on top.

Its
But if it means leaving it on site and the 395 is cutting nicely, I don’t get into details.
It’s normal to leave it in 1meter, easier for the tractor mounted splitter.

Come to think of it they were around 3 foot... so a metre it is then

It’s tough on your own, I always think 100 quid for a guy on the deck is money well spent.
Agreed. Buzzing up firewood into an unstacked pile is basically zero work

I’m sure I will to some degree. In the back of my head I know it’s not a good move financially but I’m so done with employees and my wife says she doesn’t want to live with tree guy paul any more.

Haha!!! It’s “nice guy Paul,” from here on out.
Kinda monster pics there Paul!!
Kyle: Yer a man dude. That Singlejack show really starts to wear on a guy. Well done.
Funny thing: I did this lightning struck Fir today, and when I went to fall the stob, I just ran into nothing but rot on my face cut, And since it was not a very critical shot, I just kept plowing all the way to a short backstrap, to try to find some wood for some kind of a hinge. A beaver show. My man Luke in the shots.

I think he meant pine seeds?Man, you got Oaks on the brain Stephen.
It's like all of these old-timers: I always ask, "Why do you want me to cut down this Fir tree?" "Oh, I'm just sick of all the Pinecones." Ignoramuses.🙄
Found those pictures of pines ready to fall over (we felled them before they did) planting the oaks. These were ponderosa. Grey pines just happen sooner due to shorter life span.
