Hahaha. At least this isn’t Facebook. Omg, is that queer,,,
I was on a roll chipping this one last spruce trunk. I was up on the chipper moving the chute side to side. Then the truck started to overfill, nobody was around to stop it so I just said screw it, we’ll shovel it into the slip-scoop.
Been there done that.

Waiting in my truck while a storm passes, not on the john. Today we tackled a couple of red maples One of which somehow got a cable in it with no pruning. It’s funny to me how people sell common grade cabling and put it ten feet from the crotch and don’t prune weight off. Mysteriously the cable ends up snapping years later.

Wtf you rambling about now lol. You better clean the chipper it's dirty
Hey Rope, you still got that ole loader truck?
Fun project I bought last year on CList for $250. (guy was gonna junk it otherwise for metal weight $) is coming along. Had Suder Engine go over the Continental 4 Cylinder engine and it cost $1750. Much of that was a new radiator. Engine was perfect and now starts up with the first button push and purrs all day long. Then took it to my friend Steve Viola at Forest Lytle and have not got the bill yet but he said the pump ran perfect and he did very little to it. It sprayed an entire nursery up in Mason from bought new in mid 50's. Every use it then went into a barn. Pump was packed each winter with vegetable oil so no freeze cracks in cast iron pump and seals stayed ....well...sealing. This has a huge Bean 60 gallon per minute pump and will spray well over 100 feet and the approx. 600 gallon tank will be a huge improvement from the 200 gallon tank I have now on a much smaller sprayer that makes big $ fertilizing and spraying trees....

My last "big" sprayer was this ole 1938 Bean with a Hercules engine I renovated that I made pocketfuls of cash back in the 70's spraying Gypsy Moth in NJ. I sold it about 20 years ago but think I may need a big sprayer again...Any of you guys run sprayers?.

Call me crazy, but I feel like that's not an approved felling cut... Methinks the homeowner got lucky on this one. We did the other 7, and had to clean this mess up with them.
