The pinto is rated to 50 kn which is somewhere in the range of 10,000 lbs. In michigan I'm not dealing with things that big. My work zones are tight, the trees are not that big. A 100 foot tree is as big as we get. The weak point in my rigging is usually the tree.

It's not going to come to a complete stop with a groundy holding it by his hands. But it's rated to 50 kn. The sling is what you want it to be. 108 lbs is tiny.

Hmm, I have one of the harken one way ratcheting pulleys. It doesn't seem as durable as the pinto it also doesn't have as much holding power as the wrench. But that is a good option as well. If you don't feel comfortable using a wrench in your rigging than that's fine. I have used figure...

This set up works very well for lighter in tree rigging. A porta wrap isn't necessary and you can handle fairly descent weight with out being worried about ripping your hands up. You can cut and lower and not need a ground guy except to untie. I have been finding this combo very usefull

Yes, pruning is my main focus as I have a hard time competing with the removal hacks around here. I do a fair bit of removals though and much to my surprise I am picking up the 150 right off the bat. As I get into the bigger wood ill switch to the 200. Its nice having a right sized tool...

Wow, haven't cut too much eucalyptus, sure your chin is sharp? Maybe similar to dead black locust. Either way, I find the narrow kerf means you need less power. The spark arrester removal made a big difference on this saw. I am seriously really impressed. I was surprised by the price but...

Ms 150 all day

We have one 150 and a 200 and a 201. me and my climber fight over who gets to take the 150 up in the tree. Worth every penny and more

Since I got the 150, my 200 and 201 have been resting. Pruning, and removals, those saws feel like boat anchors. The 150 is so light and it cuts fast and strong. I didn't think I would like it so much. It's nice because the 200 and 201 stay rested, clean and sharp until they are really...

I hate velocity for climbing but love it for all around light rigging. It's my favorite for everything until I start into the big stuff.
