Those numbbers are in Ozzie dollars. The rate is 1.07:1.00!

Good question Dave, I will ask Paul the next time I am talking to him. Just found a site that really has high priced ascenders. http://www.arborindustrial.com.au/productsList.php?category=7

Well my Wraptor arrived no Wednesday. Yesterday was the first time I was able to use it in a tree. It worked flawlessly, and I had a $hit eating grin on my face the whole time. I ascended about 40 ft 5X and never broke a sweat! Set-up was not much longer than installing a DbRT system and my...

I used to think like ltx! Didn't take long to discover IF there is an easier way, USE it. I don't work so I can suffer, I work to make coin!!! The Wraptor is just a tool, tools usually make work easier. Hmmmm maybe LTX uses a bucksaw too!

Small Wood, I was the lucky bidder! For those less informed , there is a video that Gerry Beranek did for Paul, which shows a few of the emergency techniques. Here is the link to the video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=icopDhMjubU

Thanks for the heads up on the Wraptor! I am gettin' TOO old to hump up multiple trees a day!:laugh: It will be put to work as soon as it arrives.

The lower handle has been changed, thats the old style Uni. The lower handle has been changed to an "L" shaped piece. Dave, now I know that your gizmo znd the Uni are different, the Unicsender is $450 US. Wespur markets then on-line. Here is a more recent link...

Treevet, I don't think they are the same thing. I have had a Uni for about a month now. Works great in both DbRT and SRT applications. It takes a bit of practice on SRT descent! Your saddle type seems to be important to maximize all the benefits the Uni offers. Yup expensive, but worth every...

I feel for ya. Five years is a long time to have any employee. I am guessing they see or hear the gross price you get for doing a tree job, and figure you are gettin' the gravey. Are they around to service the equipment, quote the jobs, or even appreciate the time it takes to do the payroll...

I agree with Tom, they are abusing your generosity, on the equipment lending. I would let any employee go that did side (tree) work on their days off. If you trained them is all aspects of the tree service industry, their next step is to start their own operation and compete with you. I...

There appears to be a bit of back stabbing going on up in my part of the world. I have seen several NEW people is the biz too! LMAO I guess we shouldn't have made it (tree work) look so easy! The newbies are popping up everywhere. I am glad I am NOT carrying any debt on equipment, that would...

As far as money grabs go, I wonder how many people pay their money to TAFE and don't pass their certifications in Australia?

Brmorgan, I have seen arches with a 2 wheel trailor for the other end of the log. I would guess the idea is to lift the small end first and put the axle with pole under that end, then move to the other end, lift it and off you go. Don't forget that the secret is to keep the whole outfit under...

Thanks Trigger, I have a set of dual wheels I can put on it that should allow more floatation on the sand. And YES, be careful of the weight, I would hate to see anyone getting run over OR rolled on for a log.:cry: The winch that is on it is also shop modified. It was built to assist rigging...

I have landed a job that needs the logs moved down the beach 100 yards. I have an extensive supply of used parts, and a large supply of scrap iron, so I decided to build an arch. It will handle a 32 inch diameter log. The maximum weight I can pull with it hooked on the quad is around 4000...

Blakes Hitch here!
