    The Stihl MS 150T C-E

    To bad, cause you're missing out on a great little saw. 2,5 kgs compared to 4 kgs, thats quite a bit. It's not fast, but it gets the job done, and did I mention that its light... Another tool in the box, is just what it is. It's not gonna replace your 200t, but it is a great suplement in some...

    Tom Dunlop, Buzz Tyrant?

    Of course you can complain about moderators. There might be some forum rule that states that you cant, but the forum (at least comercial ones like AS) are dependant on users. So banning to many users is kind of like peeing in your pants to stay warm. Not good in the long term. Smarter listening...

    Tom Dunlop, Buzz Tyrant?

    Yea, that would make me feel better. I generally dislike it when people with power tries to change history :-D As for starting my own forum, I belive thats been done before. I'm to lazy, so I prefer just to voice my opinion.

    Tom Dunlop, Buzz Tyrant?

    Strange how all these american forums makes you feel like you were in China or North Korea. Make sure you don't type anything offensive, or break a rule, or they will come and get you. Did anyone besides me notice how the morderator on the "A Safer More Efficient Tree Industry Future?" recieved...

    Black Friday sale?

    I find it amusing and annoying with all the cencoring this site executes. My first guess would have been that this site was hosted in China.... Maybe one of the reasones there are less arborist posting in the comercial treeforum. Sure turns me off at least when you cant quote an other treeforum...

    how to do limb walking with nothing above to tie into?

    They we're both takedowns, so spikes are in the game. Just walk all the way up. Stay on top of the rainbow and you'll move fast, have an exciting time (always reminds me of long runouts on slabs when rockclimbing) but if you slipp, you will slipp quite a bit. Double wrap the lanyard arround...

    Rope Wrench

    The wrench is fine, but the Hitch Hiker is definatly the way to go, in my opinion, allthough I've only had it for a weeks time so far.

    spools of chain

    Go to your local Stihl dealer and get him to order whatever reel you need. My personal opinion is that the Stihl chains hold up longer than other makes, allthough they probably are more expencive. As for a reel for the 200's I've never bothered, as I only use them aloft in the trees and the...
