Forgive my ignorance but who dictates what kind of brain bucket you wear? OSHA, state ??

OSHA, I believe. I’ve only seen them on a job once, however.

I love it. Golden honey oil. Really nice and tacky.

Did you guys ever run Durex?

OHSA as well as land owner can as well. You’d be amazed what’s required in the beautiful state of Portland or as we call it Havana on the Willamette.

Yeah, Weyerhaeuser has their set of rules, but I have adopted a face screen and hi-vis clothing anyways, so never seemed like a big deal.

Yes, used to all the time, but it went up in price to $10.99 a gallon. We drive by the Napa every day right now, and they’re cheaper, so it’s working better right now.

Yeah it went up since Christiansen’s closed their doors and another company took over the brand. A few times a year Tractor Supply has a pretty good deal on B&C 6 dollars a gallon from memory.

So that’s what happened.
Napa has been pretty good, and there is also good ole Chevron 5 gallon bucket bar oil.

View attachment 184689 View attachment 184690 View attachment 184691 What do you guys know about this type of hardhat? I found it in a unit we cut near Loon Lake, OR a couple years ago.

I bet this headgear will go on it. Call them & confirm.

This is the best wearing hard hat I’ve ever worn.

I wish they were earmuff compatible.

When I was working for H&W in 2005, one of our operators on a job above Yoncalla
had two broken motor mounts on the hydraulic motor for the bar and chain. He went
through $3k worth of bars before they figured out what the problem was.

If they were 3/4 bars that’s not that many if they’re 404 then it’s a ton I’m amazed on how much cheaper the 404 bars are, last ones we bought a couple years back we’re almost 500 a piece.
