This little 4 man tree company i worked for during the summers in high school, the owner always listened to rap and had some 12" subs in the bucket truck and and chip truck and it bumped LOUD, i wonder what people thought when we pulled up to a job bumpin' and rattlin' **** off their walls with some Too Short or 2LiveCrew

I love a can
I love a bucket
If it got a hole
I'd be sure to ****et

Starting off this season's bonze of the month:

 

[DR. P. Proteus]

After a tiring day of starting with a bran-newbie I putzed around and got ready to take the new hire up to Peabody's hill in the morning. Going to give it one last go up there getting settled from the winter storms. We'll be splitting some of the trees up there for next season's wood through-out this year. I just want to finish the damn storm damage for now. JESUS!

The new guy was good. We messed around, I went through the equipment and general duties, I climbed one tallish tree to cut out broken limbs, even took him on a quick estimate. I sent him packing with enough to do a taughtline, the guy is interested and seems to be actually paying attention and understanding. It was a lot for one day.

Right. Sounds pretty legit. That's only like 2 months worth of payments (out of the 60 months remaining) on yours. Just thinking out loud again..

No good vids on this phone as it's old hat to me now but you pretty much just proved my point by asking for one. You obviously have no clue what they are capable of. Its almost like you're running out of things to not comprehend in this industry. The **** you've been doing the past forty years?

you know dimwit this biz is all about the purchases you make and what tf you do with them. A winch on a chipper is such a non issue (grapple, maybe). And while I am at it...buying a grapple truck instead of a crane that you can pick a tree with...well...just plain dumb is all I can say. Is dumb politically correct to say? I coulda said tard, but chose not to.

I have this uprooted mulberry I have to do. I have to rig a little ATV winch to my chipper to do it, just the set-up on this job would be nice with a chipper winch.

Having a winch on the chipper expedites crane work by a good margin. It's much quicker to clip onto the crane cable with the winch line and pull the piece in to the tray. Also, when working in areas that you cannot bring the chipper into, and the crane cannot reach, it can be a life saver hauling brush out, especially if we're fighting lite that day and we leave the dingo at the shop. It's certainly a useful device to have in the arsenal.

yeah....if you don't have a crane...or a Dingo,pickup or just about anything else with a pulley hook up I suppose.

I got them from my uncle in law. He said the 58g SHOULD run fine, although he hasn't run it in years, it was his grandfathers and it's possible it's all original. If nothing else it'll be a sweet wall hanger. He's not sure why the 038 isn't running, but I'm willing to bet it just needs a cleaning and a pull cord. He got a couple new saws and has no interest in the old ones. Even if I have to put a new engine in it it'll be worth it. He has a history of breaking something simple like a pull cord then letting it sit for a long time, then when he needs a saw he buys one in a pinch.

to each his own but I'd find lots of other neat gear to buy with that 3,4,5,6, $k I thinkin. I just don't see it, esp. if a rookie like blakes has to have one to get his self all moist.
