    Anyone notice variation in metal when filing cutters?

    I just picked up a couple of Husqvarna H82 loops from a local shop to get me by until I get a new roll in to my shop. First time I touched them up in the field with a round file I noticed that most cutters were normal metal and the file smoothly went through them, but about 5-7 of them were...

    Rigging question

    There are dozens of logs and this is a near vertical slope with previous slope instability with sensitive native plant revegetation. The land owners don't want the slope disturbed.

    Rigging question

    I get what you're saying. Depending on the height above landing and slope the double trolley makes good sense. Thanks.

    Rigging question

    I think I understand your idea. I may need clarification. To me the high line is what the trolley runs on. A rope runs through the trolley and has a choker at the end that goes down to the log. If I get your meaning, I would attach the choker to the trolley in a fixed way and have a main...

    Rigging question

    Good suggestion but I need to stay off the sensitive slope all together.

    Rigging question

    Good points. Big Leaf Maple and Doug Fir about 6-12 inch diameter, cut to any length desired but usually a 12 " maple would be cut to 8-10' length to keep it on the lighter side.

    So about bees…

    Contact your local or state beekeeping association or club. Yes Africanized bees are still a thing in TX. A broken open hive will make any colony defensive. Local beekeepers will have the PPE and the knowledge to help. I help arborists and homeowners with colonies every year in our area. A...

    So about bees…

    Could be the vibration if the bees are nesting or foraging in the tree. May also be the sap your spraying everywhere too. Time of year makes a big difference too.

    Maasdam Rope Pullers - great alternative or bad idea ?

    I've used mine with Samson 3 strand. I have used it for tension and setting up high lines for moving small logs. Will slip eventually, needs backups. Nice that you can't fill it up as the rope keeps feeding through. Doesn't move rope through very fast. Nice for pulling vehicles out of ditch...
