    Do any stoves last longer than 24 hours on a fill?

    I think I heard once of a stove that could run 42 hours off one fill of wood. Don't remember what it was. I want a stove that can last from around midnight to 7pm, that's nearly 20 hours. Any recommendations?

    Get some intense red dye and throw it over into his pool one night. See if he gets it then.

    Can you get insurance on a per-day basis?

    Ok thanks all, I will make enquiries with my homeowner's insurance. Are there any insurance company names that come to mind in the NJ area that you could recommend, if my homeowners doesn't work out? Cheers for the good advice, Dean

    Can you get insurance on a per-day basis?

    I'm in need of some insurance for a few tree jobs, but I only do this occasionally, so I was wondering what kind of insurance options I have in NJ? I may only do one job a month. Thanks, Dean

    GIANT poison oak + poison oak question.

    PI: I cut through the base one year and then removed it the next. It was dry, but I wore gloves and just pulled off strips as I descended, dropping them into a pile. I was wearing gloves and long sleeves and jeans, no problem at all, the PI was growing all the way up an oak to around 50 feet and...

    Fishing line bits inside new rope?

    Well, I called the seller (WesSpur), and they got UPS to come pick it up for me and rushed a new one out which I now have. Perfect 10 service, no fuss. I just wanted to let people know. Dean

    Rope all twisted after using friction saver....

    It was in a bag, but it was flaked in, not coiled. No idea what milking a rope is. Funny that it never happened on a crotch or leather saver.

    Rope all twisted after using friction saver....

    Is this normal? I was using DRT on a Buckingham double steel ring friction saver, and when I came down the rope was all twisted and I had to lay it out and undo the turns. Never had the same problem with a leather cambium saver.

    How to climb pine?

    Thanks for the help. And yes this is for removal so I don't mind spiking it. I was looking for some trick to get a climbing line around the trunk of the tree while also being held up on a branch at the far side.

    How to climb pine?

    The question was more on how to climb pines in general. There are many brances but none of them seem like they want to hold a person. If I could get an anchor up near the top that would be great, I would be comfortable doing all the rest. I am just not sure how to get an anchor up high with so...

    help needed

    I see it all the time now with the new houses in NJ. Huge big mac mansions, in 1/2 acre, all trees in sight gone, nothing but grass and driveway. They bake in the sun all summer, no-one is sitting outside in the shade of a tree (like me) drinking beer in the 100 degree heat. Plus their A/C is on...

    How to climb pine?

    Its around 15" diameter at shoulder height. No idea what pine it is. It has many many small branches. Around 60 feet tall. Nearest electric line is around 12 feet away. If I could climb up it and just drop all the branches and then top it in small sections it would be fine. But I don't know how...

    How to climb pine?

    What's a typical way to climb pine for removal purposes (these ones have hundreds and hundreds of branches)? And how far up can you go (minimum trunk width) before topping? Im my case I want to go as high as possible as we are over a 220V / cable line. Thanks Dean
