New Tree Gear Box

did you make a top cover too?

Not yet, I am going make one next week.

1rst, I like it! Nice and organized. I'm not a neat freak but I like to know where my stuff is and I can't stand it when guys leave Mtn Dew bottles, wrappers and bunch of crap laying around the floorboard or side bins.

2nd, Really like that chainsaw stand. I've only got three saws but that would free up one of my shevles and look cool too. I"m gonna have to copy off ya.


3rd, She is the cutest little thing. That little smile is priceless. She kinda reminds me of one of my son's little friends. She'll come over and drop a grape popcicle on the floor or something like that, and I just can't get mad at her. "That's ok honey, grape stains are fine"

That saw stand is for the saws that are gassed and currently in use, the rest are stored in a separate rack above my garage door, sharp, filters clean, and ran out of gas. This way I can just walk in the garage and grab and go.

My girl is a little angle, I'll vouch for that.

Nice work on the box man, but I would find out who put that ugly helmet with the H on it in your box and beat the crap out of them.

Dang. That's the first thing that hit my mind when I looked at the picture too. LOL!

Not stihlomatic, he couldn't be biased, lol. I meant to ask you nails, how you like that pacific kevlar? I see murphy and DK rock them but they weigh more than the vertex. My vertex vent is hot as hell but lighter than the kevlar, how's that one on releasing heat?

I like it, it's a really tough helmet. Sometimes I headbutt things just cause I can with this thing, but I've been known to do that cap or not. I don't wear anything under it when it's hot and it seems to do OK, but like any helmet they do hold a certain amount of heat in. When I hit the ground, I'm throwing it off and getting a drink.

The higher decible muffs are heavy anyway, so together you have maximum ear and head protection at the expense of a bit of weight. I guess it depends on how sensitive your neck is to extra weight. I'm used to wearing a helmet twice as heavy 40 hrs a weak, so it does me fine.

Don't make em' like that anymore, welcome to the forum Nitris. Get that 372 up in your sig line when you get some time.

Nice work with the treadplate Nails. Love alloy for boxes and you cant beat having all the tools on site when you want em and where you want em.

One small negative I see. Rope manufacturers recommend you store fuel and rope seperately to avoid contamination in an enclosed space. I seperated my saws from my other gear for that very reason. Is a divider and vent something you could include to limit this issue?

Yeah, I suppose you could. Our other trailer has a sectioned off area just for ropes, I planned on hanging mine across one of the bars, as long as there isn't direct contact and the unit isn't completely sealed, I don't see it being an issue.

Yes it is! Well, one of them anyway, lol. I went into the archives to find a pic of the NitroBeav and his pickup.

Here's a shot of the flask toting, deer slaying, firewood cuttin', Nskizwood.

[treemandan]

Yes Dan, then I'm going over to Taco Johns to lift some trees out front. Apparently the last crew got run off by some pedofile taking pictures of them.

For real though, yeah it'll be in the 'yota, or on my skidsteer trailer behind Big Red, the ol' 78. Fact is, it's in the Taco right now, just got back from a job and have another to hammer out myself in the morning. Nice Spruce, strip, top, chunk, cap stump, eat.
