LOL!



just some pics of a few storm trees from saturday. and one of today with the chipper. you wanna talk about making life easy for the groundies. the only worry you got is not hitting the sling with the saw or which way to push the butt when it comes to the chipper. you are so right about the chipper talk MDS. thing is a BEAST.

you see why i am burning through prussic cord now? all i do is sling em and cut em. constantly burning through the things. 38ton altec with 127ft of stick, good for about 2k 100ft away. i'm not gonna tell you how i make the cuts but let me tell you this, you'd be very very hard pressed to match the speed of this crew and its equipment. i havent mentioned the 09' international 7400 workstar 4x4 75ft bucket yet have i? they just gotta get it lettered.

but more importantly, i think you all might see why i love my job. lol.



how come the no mention of the 5x bee stung hand from that locust? talk about swollen paw!!! yeeeouch! felt like i let a carpenter practice his hammering skills on my hand! oh well. 15 1/2 hours of OT helped soothe the pain.

btw that mercedes was a kompressor convertible. lol.

I am thuk on bandaids cause bandaids thuck on me:hmm3grin2orange: You will get tired of the easy life friend:monkey:

Town?

What town were those storms in? Was it a microburst? Out here near Worcester we had some wind, but nothing that would bring down trees...

You guys seem to be enjoying yourselves, that is good to see. Wire protectors though? Wussies.
No, its a good pic, maybe it will learn a few guys on just how involved it is. Not many people have the idea to get them put on. You should talk more about how to go about doing that Treeslayer. :cheers:

It can be, but you have to define top.
Anyway, where are you these days? Not up North?
