  1. Todays tree. 2 hr with cleanup.
  2. I am in the same boat as you. My truck on the freeway is the same, a boat anchor. My plan this summer is to fabricate an aluminum shell to drop into the dump part of my truck. I am going to use 3/16" (5mm?) because it gets loaded with wood along with chips. Since your guys trucks are so small over there, 3mm seems suitable. Ever think about a tarp top? I am going to run a heavy duty truck tarp top. Lowering the height of the top and raising the tailgate will compensate for the height lowering. Just something to consider from an American.
  3. Nice trailer!
  4. Nice job. You take some big pieces! Got more balls than I do.
  5. Bought it from the dealer Aerial Lift of Connecticut.
  6. Good to see someone else enjoying there Woodsman. I am in love with mine. How is your holding up so far, mine has low hours so its hard to tell.
  7. The 019T is the only saw I'm glad had ever gotten stolen. I've never tryed the 192, I just cant see past the plastic dawgs!
  8. I use these, have 3, 8' (found on road), 10', 16'. You have these over there?
  9. Those things weigh a ton. Do you guys have orchard ladders over there?
  10. I beleive fid lengths are 11x the diamter of the rope being used. http://www.machovec.com/rope/splicing/splicing.htm Go to that site, and scroll to the bottem. It shows fid lengths for all diameter ropes.
  11. They don't offer instructions for loopies, again, only Whoopies. Loopies are silly, 2 backsplices and bury 2 fid length into itself. Not much more for instruction than that.
  12. Thats a Whoopie.
  13. No prob.
  14. Whata life.
  15. Loopies are no brainers, I'll go snap a pic. Pretty freaking simple!
  16. Ya, don't you have one to look off for referance? If you want a pic I'll go take one.
  17. I don't think there is anywhere online that shows how to make a loopie. I made mine blind. Just bury 2 fids length, and make your backsplices. Pretty simple.
  18. 200T 14" MS460 20", also have 32" bar for it Wanting a 361 with a 18", loved that saw at my old job.
  19. Wrist size and bigger please. I always tie so if the smaller limb fails , I will still be attatched to the main trunk and slide down to the next limb.
  20. I take before and after pics of all my jobs. Haven't had a problem yet but they are stored just in case.
  21. At least ya got the front wheel weights. Wouldn't wanna flip over with to big of a load on back!
  22. This is the family dog. Nothing like being in a bad mood and seeing her tail wag, puts a smile on my face right quick.
