Just seen an ad online for arborist training seminar. A class to prepare yourself for the test.
$125.00 to prep for a $200+ pass fail test.

Great money maker but I wouldn't feel comfortable profiting off ignorance.

Little crane axadent, my crane and my fault. O and in my back yard. A bit of miscamunation between me and my son about what we were doing after a long day and over it went. Truck frame got bent a bit but nothing we can't fix. No one got hurt and that's all that matters.

What exactly happened?

 

[gorman]

What exactly happene

I was telling him what to do instead of letting him do what he knew. We we're moving the chipper truck top from the rear on the crane, it was only a few feet and I was in a hurry and told him not to worry with the front outriggrrs just use the rear. After that I told him to boom over the side as now I wanted to put the basket on the back, I forgot about the front outriggrrs he tried to put down when we started. The ground collapsed under the rear outriggrrs and the weigh of the boom took it over. No pick was on the hook.

Damn that sucks.

Finished up a 2 willow removal today. Big ugly wood hauled off. Two pieces standing on end filled the 16' bed of the truck. Gonna have to shove them over the hill to rot away.

Thanks guys. My crappy day dont seem so crappy any more. I still gotta go buy a bar for my 192. The tip finally came apart. Sucks about your crane Oak. I have nightmares about that ****. Literal nightmares.

 

[TaoTreeClimber]

And then I see Juniors pics and think he flipped a crane. My PTSD therapist is gonna have a field day with this nonsense.

Is this one of those Australian jobs? The one where all you have to do is cut the stump and the tree falls straight down (up??? )

Man you roll in style... is that grapple on the truck how is it on hot asphalt and grass?

 

[luckydad]

It stays on the street for the most part. In the dry summer time you can get off the road if need be. If a driveway seems soft in the heat we just stay off it.
