Saddle X

[Lumberjack]

Back when I was deciding which saddle, I asked the same thing about the loop. I think it was JPS that said they were and others agreed. I looked at the glide, and it seemed to be heavy enough to be used as a rear TIP, it seems to small and thick for anything else.

So yes I believe it is a rated TIP.

I like my Weaver, but it sucks that I have to add tie wraps to secure the straps.

MB,

Double locking rope snap on the lanyard?

[NickfromWI]

That's a good ideer, MB. You just tuck the straps in there to keep them outta the way?

MB,
What size is that saddle? I can only get my leg straps to the fifth hole.

You ridin' around on a chicken????

 

[Lumberjack]

HAHAHAHA... I think so... he has to use suspenders because of his lack of a backside.

Call the bayou Po'lees......Somebody done stole'd MB backside.....

Like Boudreaux and Tibedeaux says.....I went to the mirror and there my butt was.....gone.

I havent seem to have that problem. I can hang an 044 and the 200 without it slidin down. Now wouldn't that be a setup (heavy as heck) for TD.


Na... I like the 200 too much. And to think when I first started I was using an 044 with a 20" bar. Those weren't the days for sure.

Was that last week

 

[Lumberjack]

Hahahahahaha, na it was 6 months ago.

The first tree that I topped (outa 2, have since stopped I joined AS and see how they turned out) payed for the 250 that replaced the 044 for in the tree, except on big removals. Then the 200 came in mid december. Next is an 066, that would rock, and have me set for now.

I think that I have progressed way above the normal leaning curve, IMO, mostly because of AS's members keeping me thinking, and on my toes.

Thanks to all for yalls help. Now I am actually able to answer some questions here, while still needing help.

PS I got confermation today on half a mill liability insurance. That makes me smile, as now noone here has anything on me except that one year of experiance 30 times over. Some have a bucket, but not in my city.

PSS Ever notice that the more you know the more you relize you don't know? I love it!

 

[NeTree]

Carl, the liability is far more important than a bucket; and I'd rather climb and have a good chip truck than a bucket.

You're doing fine.


JMHO

 

[Lumberjack]

OH no doubt. I would get a chipper, then a crane then a bucket. I wasn't complainin, people here with buckets have no clue how to climb, exspecially on a rope.


I figure that I am doin well, a chipper would be nice tho. All in due time, all in due time.

The fact that you are working and making the money that you are is an accomplishment indeed. When I was your age all that I was concerned with was having a good time and meeting girls! Not bad thinking at the time, but I would have been far more ahead if I had been thinking along the lines that you have been!

 

[Lumberjack]

Thanks, life would suck without girls tho.


Carl

 

[NeTree]

Life would su...

aw nevermind...

 

[kurtztree]

Thanks guys for the info some things I wasn't thinking of when I looked at it. But it is still better than my saddle I'm currently using which is about ten years old. Do the leg straps irritate your legs in the back if you dont have the bosun seat? Or that strap that goes on the underside of your butt for a seat like the weaver 1040

 

[NeTree]

I find the leg straps on my weaver more comfy than either a bosun seat or butt-strap. But everyone has their preferance.
