  1. The Landscape model should work well, however if you find the need to work with a Kombi or Pas units with extensions or a power pruner I would suggest the Arborist model. The Arborist model can Handel 23-25 lbs and is convertible for less weight by removing the outside strut:thumbup1:. Just remember the Easy-Lift Harness can be safely used from the ground, a bucket or a scaffold. The Easy-Lift Harness can not be used from a ladder!. Work smart and safe. easy-lift guy
  2. The Pistons do wear out over time. Justin should be able to get you sorted shortly. Was the piston on the inside or outside?. easy-lift guy
  3. I would incorporate this machine as part of a anti theft program!. Just set on automatic mode/no prisoners. Glorious results! easy-lift guy
  4. I suspect the cow boys have as little regard for the law with regards to chainsaws as they would have for a shot gun. Remember don't bring a knife to a gun fight:sneaky2:. easy-lift guy
  5. Matt, I just saw the video, That race should have stopped all together with a FRONT END LOADER REMOVING THE FRAME OF ANOTHER CAR FROM A PREVIOUS CRASH!!!!!!! Insane comes to mind, and a break down of communication is surely an understatement. I hope the driver recovers and that any and all race officials face prison time. easy-lift guy
  6. Based on what statistics?. Israel is less than 1/3 the size of Cuba, and how much of that is actually dedicated to tree planting?. I would say that the number of trees planted in my State of Florida entering the 21st Century was 100 times more than a country the size of Israel, of course land mass wise Florida is at least 2 1/2 times larger:thumbup1: easy-lift guy
  7. Funny how if left alone nature has a way of evening the field, however I though this thread was about that butter flavored topping one finds at Movie Theatres! Yum, Yum:thumbup1:, Don't worry about it Monsanto will never tell:sneaky2: easy-lift guy
  8. The amount of food needed to support a very large population of birds is proportional. Like another member stated the animals go where the food is. John Dillinger was asked by reporters why he robbed banks and his reply was because that is where the money is kept, same principle just a different animal. easy-lift guy
  9. My friends wife has a kinda of beard:confused1:, that starts to explain a lot of things in his neighborhood. easy-lift guy
  10. FYI Round-Up is a Post emergent herbicide. Pre emergent herbicides kill weed seeds. When both types of products are used the results usually equal higher yield and better quality crops. People in the US that abuse both products are nearly all of the time home owners that really have no business controlling anything much less vegetative growth. Still professional pest control operators and farmers are left to blame. Way of the world this side of the Atlantic/Pacific. easy-lift guy
  11. Regrettably the plenty of folk you talk of have never really had to do with out and that is the main reason you have such a strong populations of Eastern Europeans willing and able to work. But I digress easy-lift guy

    Eddy_t your always trying to help and that is great. I nominate you for planning and development for the next APF. BTW does anyone actually know if the 2016 show will remain at the same ligation or has it been moved?. I have heard the show is going North or remaining as is:confused1:. easy-lift guy

    Although I did like the vertical banner just to the left of the tent entrance I believe an additional banner running end to end across the top entry way would better ID the tent. I can say that FR.Jones & Son tent was not only bigger but the sky lighted panels were a Hugh improvement and I also believe help to discourage any 5 finger Discounts in the process!. Thanks Steve. easy-lift guy
  15. As above, we need the weed barrier to block light (and then rot away).... very similar to using cardboard. It sounds like you are trying for total weed eradication (by chemical warfare) whereas we are quite happy to have a controllable amount of 'weed' for the critters to live on. Thus we don't have to resort to using any chemicals. It's no joke... it does work. Just ask the billions of critters that live on our farm! I now understand. The critters have more than enough to eat both dead and alive with a year round growing climate. The use of pre and post emergent herbicides is common place and when used correctly provides the desired results at a minimal cost under IPM guidelines. easy-lift guy
  16. Just curious, exactly what are you wanting the weed barrier material for?. At least over here Stateside I find the concept of weed barrier to be a money making joke since the weed seeds germinate on top of any fabric or material used to prevent germination from below the fabric. I have found that using a pre-emergent herbicide just before laying of mulch or pine straw works best and generally at a depth of 3" seems best. Follow up treatments of post-emergent herbicide maintains the beds going forward. easy-lift guy
  17. All plant material needs to have something to eat. Even after 10 years the trees root system will consume most of the food supply. I would suggest a 2-10-10 or a 2-8-8 1 Lb per foot of growth disperse 1 foot away from the trunk and 3 feet be on the drip line. We fertilize in the fall and the spring here state side. easy-lift guy
  18. Hey Jon, Kim tried the CiZZER and was still standing as was I until the end of the show. I managed fine with the large smart car for transport!. Thanks for stopping by. See you next time, easy-lift guy
  19. As usual your taste in headwear is only surpassed by the company you keep and the experiences you have shared. Thanks for stopping by my table. The show was a great success with just over 1/2 of the units available sold out. Regrettably the Sunshine I packed was spent on the afternoon of the first day, most of us know what happened for the first half of the Second day. My apologies. For all of the members and lurkers that stopped by and had a chat or to try on the ELH, Thanks. My shorter sometimes better half and I enjoyed the balance of our stay visiting friends in Bognor Regis and seeing the many sights and sounds of London. Again thanks to all. Ted,Kim
  20. How much growth has taken place in 10 years?, has the Tree been fertilized at all during this period of time? Leaves dropping this time of year makes sense with winter on its way. easy-lift guy
  21. I think it would be a great idea. Pity the APF show organizers could not have made a stronger effort with all the chips available for mudd absorption!. Will defo need to bring a pair of mudders for demoing the ELH next time. easy-lift guy
  22. Actually your correct about the fertilizer, especially if the soil Ph is off. Did not bother to mention that earlier. Until the soil Ph is correct nothing else will really matter. easy-lift guy
  23. Here in the States we have this product known as Fertilizer. It really does wonders to promote healthy growth, fruit. Perhaps try a 2-10-10. Read the bag for instructions with regards to rate of application and timing. easy-lift guy
  24. I once knew fellow colleague who was called out to give a bid on some hedge work by a female customer. When he got to the house and rang the bell the customer answered the door and was all commando and wanted more than an estimate, pronto!. My colleague was already married and explained as much to the customer. He did tell me he did not get the job, however I suspect he wont be forgetting that estimate for a long time to come. OBTW, she was a looker for sure. easy-lift guy
