I used a Poulan Pro something or another. Forget the size but much more powerful than the old greens I have. lol
Oh, PP4318 I think.
looks good....what part of florida you in?
Just south of Melbourne Fl. South of the shuttle launch center.

I get the same question when folks see videos of me breaking a new horse. I figure if I fall on a rock it will help, if I break my neck a helmet won't help much.

Well I have taken down over 200 trees so, I do have some experience. I also had redundant safety belts. One my dad used when he used to climb telephone poles and an additional rope backing that up.
I don't look forward to having to do it again especially at my age (57).
You may not want to hear how I got up there to begin with. My extension ladder wouldn't reach the first limb.

It's a Miller tree climber harness. $65 new in the sealed bag shipped to me.

impressive job, especially at your age, sir. I'll give you that.
Don't mind me, I was only ragging on Josh.
what matters is you did it.
now tell me how ya got off the ladder into the tree.impressive job, especially at your age, sir. I'll give you that.

No problem. I might not be your average do-it-yourselfer. Don't remember if you can see the house in the background but I built it from the clearing up. I did however hire an A/C guy to do that. I don't know much about A/C systems. The electrical I can handle with no problems though.
Log home, bought linear footage not a kit.
Knowing you, I agree with everything you said, except that you would have had the lawn chair in the tree with you.

south of shuttle center- any crocs up your way?
I don't think they get much further north than the Everglades. We do however have plenty of these.
