You missed out self employed climbing arborist which is what I am, so I did not vote.

 

[Sprig]

Lol, ya missed out on the "What is your profession and why do ya need saws" thread, (and me not voting), there is a ton of variety out there (on here), I don't think a poll like this will fly as it leaves out soooo many folks, its a real mixed bag o' nuts imho (and fun too)! :monkey:
(and good luck on this poll, thinking of doing one on 'Sock colors & materials' or 'Whats yer fave snack in the woods?' or 'Best TP to take with ya?', something really deep, myself, DOH!, givin' away my ideas agin! )

This one's tough. Do heat with wood, do log part time, do have a few acres(farm a little of it) and do like chainsaws.

I would then logically vote Tree Company Owner with less than 5 employees as you are your own boss and have no staff .

Perhaps if you consider the word company in the context of Tree Business Owner it might assist your peripheral vision. :hmm3grin2orange:

[Jonsered2095]

I voted Part time self employed trimmer and loggers as closest to the truth I think.



This poll should put below into numbers. :Eye: :Eye:

Whats your profession, and why do you need your saw?

Me three.

why do you need your saw?

Some excellent days I don't; Wednesday I took 4.5 hours to prune a 113' pecan. No chain saw needed; sharp silky took care of them all.

What Guy said.

I am self employed arborist w/o certification, own my own LLC with no employees.

I dislike the phrase "tree trimmer" because it narrows the perceived scope of my knowledge, though it does describe the majority of my billable hours.

If one brakes trim and prune up so that trim entails work that does not conform with the natural growth habits of the trees, I still have to say I trim more for my clientel the I prune.

Then too, I am a killer of unwanted healthy trees more often then not too...

In it's best days, it could contain an elephant. But its still stout. At least you know where to drag them. I got the GPS coordinates added just last week - trail is 20 minutes from here.
