I used to go over the shoulder but have recently adopted the method of running it through a carabiner that is clipped to a buff on my neck. Doesn't fall off my shoulder or give me a rope burn if I'm really trying to hustle.

Rock-N-Rescue/Rock-N-Arbor have affordable rope bags that are Made in USA. They started making hardware too(carabiners etc.) that is looking great both in strength, finish, and price. They are my new favorite place to shop for such things. Edit: Almost forgot they are running a 20% off...

As others said timber framers. Other stick framers will use them to gang cut everything from rafters to floor joists to speed up production.

Sassafras smells so good when cutting it. Makes for an interesting smoking wood. Almost a root beer like aftertaste in the meat.

Nice crotch!

I need one of those for my simington. I was skeptical of the plastic one from the day it arrived and would rather preemptively replace it than wait for it to wear out. Going to send you a PM good sir.

On the hunt for a service manual and IPL for the mighty lil 2511t please and thank yous

The thornless honeys are ornamental hybrids I believe. This is the OG honey locust in the wild ...

Haven't used those new wood and metal diablo blades yet, but was eyeballing them the other day. Their demo demons have been the most durable in dirty wood that I have found so far though. The wood/metal blade looks like it will last longer, but cut slower. It was also considerably more...

Might want to check over at treebuzz.com too.

Don't have any experience with 12 strand, but have worked with 16 strand safety blue a bunch. It has a far more durable cover than my 24 strand ropes. I think the real issue with the mechanicals is how they apply friction and grab with different rope types. Rope wrench may even be an issue if...

Rock Exotica doesn't actually list a side load break strength in the UIM for their swivels. They do show this though. Implying that the device will fail under the SWL in those scenarios. ... you must always have a backup-never trust a life to a single tool. I still do with my carabiners...

People love their mechanicals these days. I rock hitch cord/hitchclimber/rope wrench setups. I always thought I'd want to upgrade to a mechanical like an akimbo when it came out, but have since thought different. The only way my hitch will fail is if it is beyond its service life or I cut it...

Thank you sir!

Any chance you have a scanner? I'd love a copy of that to load up in photoshop and make myself a custom 6401/7910 sticker.

Greetings dolmar lovers. Figured this might be of interest to someone who likes to collect and/or restore... https://www.arboristsite.com/community/threads/dolmar-cx107-taifun.347540/

I'd of probably never bought the gransfors maul if I had the x27 as well. I do however feel that would have been a terrible mistake as the gransfors is a far superior splitter in my opinion.

That is truly sad news. Time to start stocking up on some spare parts.

Simple... dolmar/makita 64/73/79xx series. Priced right, smooth, reliable, and easy to work on.

I had a saw I pieced back together and put a new ngk plug on. It kept flooding and I kept trying different things. Had me pulling my hair out and feeling like I was beating my head against a wall. Put another new ngk plug in it and it has been running perfect ever since. Worth a try. I know I...
