I'm gonna do it starting this Thurs -- have an 13 tree job in and around a metal-roof barn and two propane tanks: three removals, three prune, 5 storm damage prune with spikes (deferred removal). I am going to put in two half days (first and last day) with my crew (climber, two groundies, sub with lift) if we are going to get it done in 3, 8 hr days with 1.5 hrs, RT travel each day Almost everything rigged and lowered. OK, I am probably going to end up paying my crew for 9 hr days, and I am going the day before to set up a pick up load of cribbing to protect the tanks (off budget...:bang:)

It takes me a long to change habits--- I injured my rotator cuff "assemby" -- by climbing on a Blakes hitch for 20 hrs over three days topping a big pine (getting most of the big limbs stuck because I was too stubborn to use a tag line) and then hauling a 40 lb back-pack sprayer (twice) to treat the tree for bark beetle.

I also talk too much -- but somehow, I manage to sell some big jobs to clients :biggrin:

I am getting better at under-bidding -- the above sounds bad, but is a great improvement over some jobs I finally emerged from :msp_thumbsup:

I got the idea from here i've been using it for about a month and a half since mine broke, it works great.

When I had my 192 if I would have been by any body of water I was going to see if could swim I'm glad I'm not the owner of that saw anymore

I know how you feel, my Echo top handle has taken more then one air born trip across grass! Now my old 015L is doing all the little stuff again.
