Never heard of them.

Is there enough money in the job for you to buy enough to reach the height you must, so you can then report back? Seems they might make climbing in the Kilt more comfortable...:msp_tongue:

LOL wear pants when climbing lol...........just in case wind blows

its ok if it is a Kevlar kilt and he doesn't go comando
 
One man crummy ....caught fire today.. it was interesting.. the air filter box was a melt mass of hot plastic. along with some wiring. a few buckets of muddy water and it was out. so fixed a few wires put the air cleaner back on it, after I extracted it from what was left of the air box. checked everything over and off I went for the woods.. Now this job I am/was on has a steep bank along side a creek. Someone years ago cut a road into this bank ..and through about 10' of shale. This is the ONLY road onto this piece. So I am riding along on one man crummy until I get to that bank cut... and what o I see.. the lower half of the cut is GONE the creek is 10' wider and where the road came down to th creek is now vertical face of shale 8' high or so.


So with the last load of timber left to stand as I cant really get to it (not without bringing in an excavator) I am done with this one and on to the next. I spoke with the LO and happy so all is good. I will go back mid summer after the monsoon season has passed and cleanup the landing.

4 inches of rain in two days.. Total time of rainfall....3 hours... thats a lot of water.
 
I've been on a banking that gave way ....the landrover got mangled well actually after we deragged it off the hill and the shop got it they only replaced the body lol everything else was ok n bends or dings......I may add that I didn't ride the whole drop ....I got out bout 1/4 way down lol


I'm always real wary of bankings now
 
Hey hey! What are you trouble makers up to now???

13 pole trailer loads hauled and 1 1/2 loads on the deck for 2moro! The other crew got 4 loads out this week! Guess I won the log off again! Yeah!
 
I will be back in bit...we are supposed to get 4 to 5 inches of rain tonight and I have to clear a culvert out. Don't be starting no trouble with RM before I get back... just sayin' :hmm3grin2orange:

Not fair!

Forget porting your current saws, don't even THINK of stepping up to 660 power. Perhaps a 441 would help even the score? That other crew needs a break...

Plus..., with the way you backbar the back cuts, less powerful saws will help save serious injury to your ankles...
