It helps tune out the groundman drivel..all we need is a thumbs up sign when ready they don't need to talk.

I'm not trying to pick any fights, but I won't have any music on my jobs.

Your focus should be on the work. If you need distractions like music, you are a bigger risk on the job than you should be. This is true, no matter how good you might be with the music drowning out the groundies drivel.

 

[TC262]

No music on my sites. Want to make sure if someone needs help or just a hand with something that they can be heard. Things might change when/if I get those sweet ropetek com units. Maybe Santa will bring me some?!

 

[Zale]

AC/DC till the ears bleed.

 

[KenJax Tree]

I only had 1 ear bud in and i still could hear. I was doing a Honey Locust prune and was using a Silky letting it fall no rigging....relax people i can't remember the last time i listened to music working.

The new guy today chipped my climbing line after I repeatedly told him to watch for the rope around the chipper. Then while chucking down a large dead limb the last piece hit a smaller branch collar on the way down and smashed the cab guard on my bucket truck. Just one if those days. Smh.

 

[Zale]

Well, thats what its made for.

 

[tree MDS]

And I thought losing a $15 rake in the chips was bad. Yikes.

 

[tree MDS]

Is your neck sore from the ride home??

Sorry..

 

[2treeornot2tree]

I was driving the chip truck.

 

[tree MDS]

Lol. Speaking of the grappler, maybe if you rig it right you can use that to pull the cage on the bucket back into shape a little.. enough to get along for a while anyway.

 

[2treeornot2tree]

I am gonna use my skid loader and heat up the tube before trying to bend it back

 

[tree MDS]

There you go. I know it takes a few months if you wanted to order a replacement guard from southco (personal exp). You'd probably be better of building something better once things slow down for you.

Jesus. You're lucky no one got hurt putting a rope through a drum chipper. I've heard it sucks it in so fast it'll kill someone in the blink of an eye.

 

[pro94lt]

Did he tell you he chipped it or act like he hadn't seen it?

I take it the climbing line was not hooked to you ? Fire him, next time you could be dead. That must of been a good size piece of wood cause it sure did bend that guard.

Why is your rope laying around by the chipper?
