The Official Work Pictures Thread

[Mick!]

I liked the first neighborhood, the second, not so much.

 

[Bermy]

Not a work pic...while on an outing with the garden club, Monterey cypress being gradually removed by HO

Gary, nice job with the re-direct pull line!

I did a similar thing recently, except we were trying to pull a tree back up. There was nothing to anchor to in the desired direction, and even the fence was a bit shaky, so we beefed it up temporarily.

 

[Grendel]

This is a neverendingly cool thread. . . couple quick dead Jack Pines this afternoon.

 

[Limbrat]

Fi, that is an awesome looking pic! Really "cool" shots there Sam, I can't imagine it being that cold right now. I see you switching back and forth between the 540 and the TC, do you have a favorite?

 

[Grendel]

I don't even know what to say about those two saws Ray. . . The 540 fits me a little better, and the 201 just has some ethereal appeal that I can't really pin down. I like them both quite a bit. No real game changing performance difference between the two. . .

A pic for Butch!

 

[Grendel]

OMG, the stubs! My eyes!! hahaha

 

[MasterBlaster]

Jeebus kee-rice!

Nice fence reinforcement there, Bob!

 

[pantheraba]

hahaha...first comment Butch ever threw MY way was, "NO stubs"...I used to leave them because I was a poor climber. He was (and is) right...NO Stubs!!!

bstewert..."Where's the beef?" Cool bracing on that fence...good trick there.

Fi, that is a mutant tree!!

I love it!!!!!!!!

 

[PCTREE]

Some ballsy shots there next to all those ladders and such!

Couple shots mostly for Willie to show him the roll out mats we use. Poured rain yesterday and a big storm blew through. Had to remove this pine top off the house. Drove on the wet grass with crane and you can hardly tell, wish my alturnas were 4'

 

[Levi]

Those mats are awesome, never seen that before.

 

[Limbrat]

Awesome shots Paul, having the crane has to be a huge game changer.

 

[PCTREE]

Ive never seen any roll-outs like that before either, they work well and are quick to deploy. I take the crane on a lot of driveways I wouldn't otherwise.

Yes the crane is a total game changer, we make way more money and I get to ride my mountain bike in the afternoons as Im not exhausted . Best $65K Ive spent. I tell everybody its my retirement , I retired into the crane

 

[CurSedVoyce]

Awesome!
I was trying to do a job on mats like that, your idea. We needed to get the excavator on a leach field. Lady wouldn't buy it. Oh well..... the logs are still there not my logs, not my problem

 

[BOTS]

deadwooding 2 pondos and black oak pruning as well...I got 3 oaks trimmed with one high pondo TIP...nice big swing into oak and then a redirect up at top of oak... I know, whats not to like about SRT



Bruce (goose) getting out mistletoe

 

[Grendel]

Nothing, there is nothing not to like about SRT.

 

[sotc]

Sweet Paul, I gotta look at that on the big screen when I get home!
Retirement, that's funny, I hate writing reports and have been thinking a crane retirement job sounds better than consulting!

 

[treebilly]

I thought that deadwooding a pondo meant a removal out there.
Paul I love those roll out mats. I might need to get some specs on those if you're willing to share that. I could possibly be "retiring " in a year or so.
NO STUBS!!!
Great pics everyone.

 

[pantheraba]

That could be an interesting T-shirt....

NO Stubs!!!

 

[Bodean]

That stub picture is just ridiculous.

 

[Limbrat]

Butch will toss and turn all night with that picture stuck in his head.

 

[MasterBlaster]

The torture pole!

 

[CurSedVoyce]

Makes me hurt looking at it.
