My favorite of the year.

Big dead white oak removal. I'm probably 60' up and just dropped the 35' top. Just enjoying the view before tying off and coming down to drop the spar.View attachment 209259

That's where wood gets heavy. I think you would have been fine without cutting the notch for the strap to bite into. When you lift like that the strap really gets stressed working itself into the notch, strength is diminished and it wears it out fast. If you are gonna cut a notch for that purpose make sure its wide enough to nicely accomadate the rigging, round it off a little, the corners are sharp with 9k.

here's a few fun pics

Sawdust cloud with a 460

660 Mag and Rock Exotica original rigging plate

Dead oak removal, growing over primary lines on one side and over 3 phase on another side

oak removal over a 3 story house, and they were framing a deck under this tree while I was removing it! lol

me and my ten year old in a large bur oak -- I got her to climb up to 65' in this tree, and she knows her knots -- she's still working on footlocking http://i1122.photobucket.com/albums/l525/iustinian5000/climbinglex4-1.jpg

yeah I was a little nervous about the strap slipping off (didn't think about leaving a few good stubs there) so I made the notch. thanks for the tip Dan

Good thing they added the handgun option to the package, its got to be much easier to use than the Chinese made 2x4 they used to supply. I guess you only need one at that range but how many bullets does it come with?

I've had no luck with mine. I'm sure there is an app or something to do it. I just download them on to my home computer and then upload from there.

You could try an app called tapa talk. Or just do like arborpro said. I am sure there is an even easier way than tapatalk that I just have yet to figure out. I think the I4s is amazing.

 

[thepheniox]

Tapatalk for sure. Easy peasy.
