thanks fellas. its nice to be home and get'n a little honey on the stinger.
sounds like tman needs a nap. by the way i showed her that post you made. you are her new favorite on Asite. lol
and i guess i dont need to worry about grip'n it and rip'n it anymore.
Just don't show her any of your posts. Yeah I am feeling the high of exhaustion and first thing I hope to rig up an ash and pull it up and off. Got tons of pics coming but now my regular work is being put back by major hazzard trees from this storm. It nuts baby! I got a huge stand of locust with blown over stalks. I am taking em all out! I want to save the wood to make fence post.
Man I just met a hot mama, she was a single parent and I tried to give her a break and I did but she has some nasty silver maples about to let loose. Her son and his buddies wanted to give it a go on the 75 foot norway all cracked up and hanging over the house and wire. He thinks he wants all that wood! I will do what I can. But anyway, this mama was smoking, so hot I melted! And she knew it.
So the last few days and nights have been a welcome challenge but there is much more to come. I have been running around with both trucks driving across other peoples yards without asking for acess or to set up the winch for some nice pulls I have been making with my new stable braids and pulleys. I just hook the portawrap to the winch up sometimes so I can lower off the truck after a lift. One thing to mention is a PRUSSICK( a big one) should be used before the low pulley as a failsafe.
I was going to 1/2 16 strand for my good light duty pulley rope but the guys at Main line Mower had 200 feet of 1/2 stable rated around 10 K. That is what I have for my 3/4 200 foot bullrope, its twice as strong and the feel is nice. I don't put it in crotches AND they don't carry whipping line at that store. I wonder how those climbers around there keep the ends from unravelling. I would take a guess and say tape but that would have me vomiting from laughing to dam hard.
So what, maybe I should get some rest before I bogart a way in and a tree to set a pulley in so I can get this tree of this " guy who lives on a golf course" 's luxo mini mansion... by myself, by 9 am? I will take pics but if I mess up real bad don't count on seeing them.
