The Official Work Pictures Thread

[Merle Nelson]

Busted. How do you post pictures from a Galaxy phone?

 

[stig]

Man, that would be cool Tom, thanks for the offer.

Remember, I would be working for free, so no yelling unless I really have it coming!

In that case. it would be worth it to pay you something!

 

[BIGTWIG]

Merle, I circled the button to upload pictures. Then select "from computer" then "upload file(s)"
I can post some for you as well. Works on my iPhone at least.




Jim, no need to yell with the sena headsets.
Just constant belittling....



Kidding of course

 

[Jed]

Rich/Ray/Sean... Nice work.

Stephen: Holy Smoke.

Deva: Did the rehab part suck for you?

Sean: Steel toe? Man, when you're as dumb as I am a full suit of armor will just get you electrocuted.

Speaking of dumb... here is one of my bad influences. I made him put his bucket harness on once I realized he wasn't wearing it. That pig's 120'x21" dbh.



Here's my splint-handed stob I had to fall for a guy earlier in the week. Cut from both sides.

 

[Bodean]

Gimped up and still taking cracking photos Jed.

The rehab....was checking in with Kaiser every two weeks doing strength and range of motion evaluations. Do your homework and excercises....Took about 12 months for all the swelling to go down...good as a 40 yr old left thumb.

I tore some intercostal muscles wrestling a water barrel a week or so ago. Hurts like hell to do much of anything.

 

[MasterBlaster]

Damn! Was it for the Championship and the belt?

 

[mastermind7864]

I was just in a hurry.....

 

[MasterBlaster]

Yea, that's when shit happens! Heal up!

Couple of pictures the guy I was grafting for today managed to take.

We removed a Dead Cedar last week at this care home and today was a mature Cedar to take out. Tree had a fair bit of decay at the base and a couple of old wounds mid way up the trunk. But of a tangled mess but got her done in decent time. But of a lean and a bit of a breeze so I smashed about 7 limbs off then went down to give the lads a hand. Then the rest of the green and down again. Then the stem to felling height.

Most of the limbs were fairly long and end weighted. Just used the coos bay, or my version of it at least. Basically undercut on 45 degrees for both sides and then fast cutting from the top to join them up. Pop! And down they float. Also had a run out with the rebuilt, ported and dual muffled 660. She is getting better with every tank!

[MasterBlaster]

I wanna arm wrestle your groundie!

 

[squisher]

I wanna hire that groundy! And I don't even have a business anymore.

 

[biggun]

Butch, that kid is an animal. I know who I would bet on

Harry is 23 and about 20 stone. He trains and competes in strongman stuff, strong as an Ox and he just keeps going. In his world he doesn't have time for cardio work. He just doesn't stop at work and when you say to have 5 mins he say he will keep on as it is his cardio training.

He can overhead press about 140kg, and clean and jerk the same in log format.


He has already had 2 hernia operations mind. Lifting heavy shit comes with a price sometimes...

 

[cory]

Wow!!!

Holy chit, 280lbs!! He's in an elite class

 

[MasterBlaster]

It's okay... I promise I won't hurt him!

 

[mastermind7864]

Not badly anyway.

 

[biggun]

Wow!!!

Holy chit, 280lbs!! He's in an elite class

Is that his belly or what he can press... Lol.

I think in all honesty even he knows that it would hard for him to win major strongman events as his arse is too close to the floor.

Most of the champs are 6'4" plus.

 

[Limbrat]

Great pics Rich. Better be nice to Harry

 

[treebilly]

Finished up two large pin oak removals this morning. Eating lunch trying to decide if I do a deadwood on a sugar maple or I go next door to start another big ass pin oak removal. The nerve pain from the shingles is pretty bad today so I might supervise the dead wood.

 

[MasterBlaster]

Can that be milled?

 

[pantheraba]

Great pictures, Biggun and Rich...a hinge Jed should approve of...

 

[Mick!]

Some class work going on there.
That's a big fella Rich.
I can't stand it when people carry on when we've stopped for a brew, means I can't relax.
Mind you I wouldn't tell him to stop!

 

[MasterBlaster]

 

[treebilly]

Can that be milled?

Some of it. Pin oak only goes for pallet boards around here. Does good for trailer decking as well. That smaller stuff will just be hauled off by the log truck and dropped for firewood close to the mill.

Jed would only approve of one hinge. Damn near cut the one side off of one of them.
I decided to supervise the trim and mentally prepare for the oak

 

[Limbrat]

Big tree Rich, looks like collateral damage on that pretty lawn was very minimal. Nice job.
