I googled this and it said they grow to 75 or 100 feet. Is there a miniature variety?

I have a customer that wants a privacy screen along about 300 feet of fence. The fence is under the power line and they own only 10 feet away from the power lines. It's about 18-20 feet vertically to the power lines. We are in the Kansas City area. I was thinking Cedars and or forsythias but...

Wow! Time to get out of the socialist republic of California.

What are the odds you'll get discovered? 1 in 100. If you get discovered what are the odds you'll have to actually pay the fine....get a lawyer etc. I'd say don't worry about it. It's the equivalent of self insuring.

At that price for an operator and crane why would you want to own it?

Thanks I don't know you OD but have learned much from your posts. It's common sense real world experience that you've graciously passed to others. Just a few more things we won't have to learn in the school of Hard Knocks. Thank you

You're probably ahead to have her move in with you and ask about more hours at repairing saws or hit the street looking for other work. I don't know your situation though so this may not apply.

patterns Folks who lie like that will continue to do so. I would not buy it unless you are a mechanic or take it to one to list the repairs and the price.

They know whether they admit it or not They know that there's a possibility of this happening under a power line. That doesn't make it right but it's reality.

Nice Guy Thank you for the contact. Nice guy on the phone. He didn't have any work going now that he wanted a sub on. What terms should I look for in a deal. I have been on the phone and am getting people wanting to pay me 20-60 cents a yard for removing hangers from an area. Others want...

Thanks I think everyone is right. I am making a choice and taking a risk by repairing it myself.

We spent 3 weeks in Sikeston, MO doing residential storm work. We are now looking for someone to sub under for a Fema Contract. We have 2 bucket trucks and a lightning loader. Any thoughts are appreciated. PM me if you have work available.

Great information Wow! just a wealth of knowledge here. Thanks for all the replies. I'll call first thing then check on the repairs. I would rather pay a few hundred than spend 2 days ordering stuff and figuring out how to do this. But I am willing if that's what it takes. Thanks

This is just the index. How do I get the book? I am missing something here?

Asplundh trucks Asplundh ran these in all their trucks of this age. I realize people are down on them but seriously a family with that much money certainly makes good financial decisions. It was in their best interest to run a 366 or they wouldn't have done it.

conductivity You are probably right. I don't intend to get near them but If i decide to or when i sel the truck someday it'd be nice to keep it right.........I didn't price another bucket but i am assuming 8-1500 on that.

Labman Thanks I will try it. I know that others are probably correct about changing the dielectric properties. However, If I am going to work on it myself this has to be better than my other options.

Thoughts Would it work to take some 1/2 by 4 strap and weld a square to stiffen the bucket. This would be between the bucket liner and the bucket itself on the inside. Would the liner protect me in the event of contacting a high voltage line?

Thanks I appreciate all the responses. Guess I'll do some calling around and see where they sell those.

I have an Altec LRIV with a bucket that is cracked at the corners on the top. It has a liner in it but it is an odd sensation when you get in it it sort of flexes...not down but forward and backwards if it is in the cradle. Anyone know of a fix for this? Thanks
