Just doing what the buckets can’t get to or reach lately. Loving every minute of it. It’s been a beautiful week

Yep! Dude pretty much is a little *****, advertises where I do and creeps all my comments on fb, yet I see his 80k bucket truck sitting everyday at the shop as I drive by to my next job. I think he’s got a rich daddy. I went to a crane school last spring and what do ya know there he was in my group staring at my ass the whole time.

You sure he was staring at your ass, or were you just waving it around hoping it’d catch his eye?

I’m glad these are done. PITA things! No room for a crane so instead I did it the hard way and burnt through almost five gallons of 2-cycle. Been a long time since I had one to tight to even use the mini

Thanks Jeff

All is great. To be honest, those pics were of the toughest jobs I’ve had in a while. I don’t get to climb very often so they were harder on me than they should’ve been but I loved every second of it. New school srt but I had to give in eventually.
Btw those biners are still in pristine condition. Haven’t used one yet, but I will someday. To good of a deal to pass up

I just did one the hard way on a frigging goat bluff red oak split by hand wheel barrow 100 yards uphill! I think I said I'm too old for this **** 29 times minimum lol.I gotta start taking pictures again sheesh !

That’s basically the same thing that happened to me a couple years ago. All it did was piss me off and make their problems worse. That little move is gonna keep paying out for them for years and years to come.

Nope I know of a few guys 260+ not sure how tall they are, less then 6'4 for sure, they are more chub then fit.... I'm sure it makes it much harder to get out to the tips but it if you got the muscle to pull the weight around you are fine.

His height and weight are less an important issue than his passion,,
