I have been reading many different threads on this site for a few months now. Decided I may as well register and join in the discussions.

The attached photo illustrates my typical day of work (Jobs like this really make me appreciate my bucket truck).

Some really good people here, welcome. I enjoy reading more than posting, but there is a commonality here that does not exist many other places. Treemen are strange creatures indeed, and nobody will ever understand us better than other treemen. There has got to be a psychological flaw, or at least a mutation, common to all of us to want do this kind of work. But once you start it, there seems to be no escape from it. Some kind of adrenaline addiction, mixed with a little glory hounding crowd pleasing.
Looks like a good job in the pic.

We bought an old Ohio Edison truck (electric utility company) that used to be used to set transformers on poles. It has a material handling capacity of 450 - 2000 lbs. depending on the position of the boom.

Why someone built the roof of this car port around the trunk of this tree I will never know.

P.S. -- We didn't do the damage to the spouting you see in the picture.
