    You really should try and come of with your own material man.

    Well that estimate sucked. No big loss though. Got on the phone and lined up a nice job for tomorrow anyway. Poor old lady that was real freaked out by the storm, and real untrusting of contractors. I dropped the name of another lady in town we work for while I was doing the estimate. I guess she called to check on me and got rave reviews. Lol, "I'm such a nice young man!" Lmfao! Good news is she isn't gonna be home tomorrow, so that's always nice. Gonna try and get back to climbing after the knee thing finally... maybe bust out the geezer walker!

    That's funny. Reminds me of my backyard mechanic (ex groundman for years too) buddy. This dude ain't no prize for sure, but he's had some real beauty's over the years... I mean big azzed mechanic broads with grime under their fingernails. I mean I gotta give the guy some credit, its gotta take some serious balls to make the moves on something like that.. I mean I can only imagine the pillow talk that goes on between these silverback cuties and him.. must be priceless!! Lol.

He is a go getter, there is no stopping him.
    Thanks the Dan, that Cherry was a $1k drop. I did crush the fence though. The lateral was deader than I thought and Lee snapped it off with the Steiner. I bought a new top pipe for $11 and fixed it yesterday, along with cleanup. That neighbor got the wood and we stacked it nicely inside his fence except for the big rounds which we stacked behind the fence for him to split. He's quite happy about the way it turned out.

    I might have missed the fence if I had left the lateral limb on, but it would have been close even with a perfect drop (which I did pull off). Problem was, I didn't know for sure the wood would be good at the cut. That's why I cut the notch so high, to find good wood, and I did. Also why I used two 3 ton winches for the pull.

    Today we went back for two small Pine removals and trimming two Oaks to finish that customer up. Another $1k and the customer tipped all my men $50 each and brought out a cooler of beer when we were cleaning up. His neighbor hired us to trim two Oaks and another Cherry. We got two of those done today too and made it home just in time for the SuperBowl.

    All in all today was a great day, and the clients were thrilled with our work. Tomorrow we go back to trim the neighbor's Cherry and we are out of there. I think I'll go with my wife and Lee tomorrow for half a day and no crew costs.

    Aerialist, I am gonna say this and shut up. I have no problem with you posting your stuff elsewhere on this forum but you are in a Vietnam Vet Marine's forum and you should show enough class to move on.

    BTW, Next time do not notch the limb at all. Slow cut it and peel it slowly with the pull to give it plenty of hang time to clear obstacles. Proper rigging technique, balancing and hinging will come later, once you have learned basic hackery.
