Hard hat/Bump cap.

The only thing I have heard about drilling holes in your hard hat or painting/placing decals or stickers on it, was that it was suppose to compromise the die-electric possibility's of the hat. I would think as long as you weren't by any wires, you should be ok. But the holes could compromise the strength of the hat. Thanks! Work safe....

Here's an old "Get that thing away from me!"

The way the butt swung out, if your head was a little higher it might of got you right in the chops. Thats a big ass piece, I'll give you props for that. I've never done anything with a crane.

How long does it take to go through it, Mike?

I got a kick out of watching climbers who leave stubs. When the tail of their rope hangs up on one, I stifle a giggle.

What really sucks is when your rope kinda makes a half hitch around one of those stubs and you have to go back down to get it off. I am most likely at the top of the tree already or in some awkward spot, where its a real pain to free my rope. So I try to leave no stubs. Thanks!

Great pics MB! Was it any specific type of tree..or just a dead one?

That's good fun crashing stuff down with a good bit of space like that. Quite a mess. Those are the ones that are fun to stand and watch.

Looks like some kinda Ash or maybe Silver Maple. Could be wrong.

To much Coffee and time on my hands. Big snow storm here in Michigan and I don't have nothing to do.

Wow! I wonder if that's a gated community? :alien:

Anytime out of the bucket is great. Even if it's only a small climb my attitude improves quite a bit once I put my weight on the rope. Is Master Dropcrotcher recognized by the ISA?

 

[Mike Cantolina]

Nice idea on propping up the uprooted stump aussie. I'll use that in the future.
