The Official Work Pictures Thread

I'm telling you - the coolvest works. It's nothing but money in the bank, production wise.

 

[Ian Harrison]

I don't think in all my time working in the UK I have ever needed a coolvest it has never been that hot here. Just a glug of water and your away again

It's a steamy oven down here on the bayou. No fun at all...

It was in the 80's yesterday but not humid. I just about roasted to death. I can't take the heat. I think I'll try to stay in the garage as much as possible this summer. I have fans and no direct sun.

 

[Limbrat]

Yep, scorching here too. 109 on the heat index

 

[Luckydad]

And you can work in the rain too !!

Great picture!!! Now...hep a fella out here. That pull line angle looks like it is from another tree? Or the side of a hill? Whazzup wit that?

 

[Ian Harrison]

It was at most 70 here today and that is a sunny day. It will only get to about 80/85 at the very hottest here so that's why we don't need them. A bit different to when I was in florida last week on holiday.

The fun storm work for tomorrow. The broken limbs on this silver maple are just at my maximum reach with the boom. There is actually five broken and another six with severe stress cracks. All are right around where the thing was topped before. This tree's base takes up half the space between the house and garage. Oh what fun to think about tonight.

 

[CurSedVoyce]

Holy McShitty broken crap.

Sleeping on it. I find it works some.
Few from the last two days. It was 92 in the shade for the broken leads clean up that we started just at the heat of the day

The tips had landed on the primary and caught the grass on fire:eek:
Worse than that was the HO telling me he broke out his garden hose to put it out.

Back to kill the rest friday

Did a deadwood chase over a newly installed greenhouse worrying the dead pieces would go crashing at first touch.

Gird your loins, brother!!!

My boss bid on trimming it five years ago. I was there for the bid as I would've been the only guy to do it. I recommended end wieght reduction plus cabling a few of the more lateral sections. The company that got it hit whatever they could with the bucket and also elevated the hell out of it. I might not be a CA but I'm pretty sure this pic shows what happens.
PS-- will hopefully have my cert by winter. Just gotta find some study time.

?? Was this directed to me?

 

[MasterBlaster]

Yes. It means "prepare for trouble!"

No big deal. ;>)

A couple of pictures of the Elm timber we did the other day.

Hopefully it will be good weather here tomorrow for round two.
