    Nice. Practical reading material to boot! easy-lift guy

    There have been many threads about the Arb Trolly on this site and probably hundreds of replies. The quality of the product is very good and the solid rubber tyres were a vast improvement over the original wheels. Although I do not own an AT I would recommend one at any time simply because it makes sense and working harder is truly over rated. easy-lift guy

    Please don't set yourself up for a severe allergic reaction again. Do you carry and Epi-pen while your outside working or even in general? If you don't and tried that experiment on yourself and had a stronger reaction, there's a good chance you would be at room temp by now. Learn the genius species of the silk oak and stay away from these types of trees in the future at all cost. Take care easy-lift guy

    Very true, the strongly worded email will really scare them in to stopping what their doing:sneaky2: easy-lift guy

    All of our national parks have large volumes of traffic. Not year round, not 24 hours of every day. Nothing short of closing the parks to visitors could possibly prevent the claimed damage to the trees and surrounding vegetation. I do not believe for a minute that collecting money in order to expose or name persons will help or matter. The National Parks Service of the USA does the best job it can to preserve and protect the parks and visitors. Could there be improvements, of course. A single person soliciting funds by electronic means on an international forum may be a novel way of collecting $$$, however I am not buying into the methods of how to stop or prevent this aledge problem in the first place. Although the OP may be very passionate about what he thinks he is attempting to accomplish bottom line is that nearly all of the national parks have been here in one way or another before man arrived and will be here long after man has left. easy-lift guy

    That will be the next fund me account!, stay tuned it can only get more ridiculous with every reply. easy-lift guy

    Burl poaching, right got it. Shut down all of the parks ASAP. Triple razor wire around every single tree. Post unarmed persons around all of these areas in order to explain to the people responsible what they are doing is wrong and convince them that they should stop or they will be told again, and again. easy-lift guy

    Tell you what. Condensing my reply may be right up there with assuming things you know nothing or less about. Try not to read to much into my opinion and or making claims that I support illegal burl poaching, what ever that is:confused1: I do not support the destruction of pretty much any eco system so please stop stating as much in your reply. easy-lift guy

    OK, So based on your response perhaps every natural wonder or museum should be better off closed to the public. Nothing short of that will insure the preservation of said items or locations into perpetuity. Unless your plan involves permanent incarceration of these persons shaming them into some sort of guilt complex may have the same result as pounding salt. easy-lift guy

    I have read over this thread, reviewed the links. I really don't think what ever your attempting to accomplish means anything:confused1: Maybe it's just me but based on some of the other responses maybe not. The links I read seem more like spam. Your analogy that I quoted nearly makes as much sense as your request to donate money to accomplish what exactly I am not sure of. If you knew anything about the legal system in the UK and or how the police handle theft of property, you could have chosen another way to attempt to relate your point or cause. easy-lift guy

    Chris, in SW Florida we have sand instead of soil. The water table in some areas can be as shallow as 3' and generally trees don't like wet feet. The root systems have no where to go except in some cases just inches below the surface and also at the surface level. Driveways and sidewalks are usually the first to go and depending on how close people plant trees to foundations houses are next. Only rookies would plant trees so close to homes like shown in the pictures. Problem is code requirements force builders and developers to plant X number of trees per parcel and usually no exceptions are granted. The results speak volumes when it comes to the mental midgets calling the shots. easy-lift guy

    Looks like it may be from the same family. I believe this tree is still pretty useless for ones landscape, at least here in Florida. easy-lift guy

    That is a silk oak tree. Very common in Florida. Dirty, brittle and having a shallow root system that will be doing enough damage to the foundation of the house in the picture. You could not pay me to have a tree like that in my yard and I never planted one for any of my customers. Wood is good for smoke. Other than that nothing wrong with it at all. I would not be surprised if that picture was in Florida based on the housing and other landscape material surround the tree. easy-lift guy

    Agreed, just how deep the pockets are with them folks is anyone's guess:confused1:. I was told by a reliable source that the government was actually floating bonds for the first time in the countries history to off set the reduction in oil revenues. 2016 will prove to be another one of those years for the history books with lots of asterisks for many dates! easy-lift guy

    I heard on the news today that by years end 1/2 of the US fracking companies would be out of business. I believe that if the house of Saudi is unable to control all of the fracking industry the gamble to once again regain their monolopy will be in serious jeopardy. Only so many dollars stock piled and when they run out of funds the native population may have to actually have to work to earn a living or face such a reduction in their lifestyles that a revolt may ensue against the government. easy-lift guy

    Reads like it would or could also be a business expense or deduction?, as well as a great resource. easy-lift guy

    Someone is having a pissing contest against someone else. Just make sure if you do get called egg that you wipe that seat clean before you conduct any additional paperwork, just to be safe!. easy-lift guy

    Thanks, Jon. The baby Ospreys are hatching around the neighborhood so the parents will once again have their beeks and tallons full of food to feed the next youngins. Just the cycle of life. I can only hope the red tide starts to subside in order for this next generation to have a better chance. easy-lift guy

    Dear members, Sadly I must report the passing of Free Bird this past Wednesday along with another osprey that I was unaware of recovered 1 mile apart. The rescuer who's name was actually Bruce told me that he believed the two were related. It seems that this is very common with the Osprey species. The toxic levels can and will get the better of these fine animals. I am very sad to say the least and Kim does not know yet. I am sure we did our best to help extend what life he had left. Nature plays no favorites and our winged friends our here for so much less time than most can ever understand or appreciate. Take care easy-lift guy

    To be even more fair, try shipping anything out of the US on a pallet that is not specific and your shipment will never leave the first terminal. Your order will be reloaded on another approved pallet and you will be charged accordingly and that same shipment may very well end up delayed as well making the customer at the receiving end upset. The pallet police are that tough because the risk of shipping invasive insects or other items is very real and we have some really bad insects here stateside that I wouldn't want to share with my customers. easy-lift guy

    Greetings and Welcome from the Sunshine State. easy-lift guy
  24. easy-lift guy
    That would depend on weather it went by air or sea. I can also tell you that the type of pallet being used is critical. Wrong type of pallet over to Europe or anywhere else and the pallet police can make your life as a shipper very sad. I believe EU pallets should meet your needs. easy-lift guy

    Jonsie may be able to assist you with some shipping company's. easy-lift guy
