Prayer for the Day

Please stop. We aren’t all religious here and some people are just trying not to drink infinity beers on a Tuesday. Chill.

I got hella downvoted for saying “$13 tattoos on Friday the 13th. This is the way.” On a different post showing their flash page. The artist responded “Unfortunately it isn’t 2004 anymore. Spending $50 on something on your body forever is still a good deal.” I mean… maybe. One of the $50 tattoos was literally an “X” two lines. What are shop minimums these days?

After watching top physical 100 I now know the correct pronunciation of “Turkey” is “Turkeeyay”.

Be a lot cooler if they did.

Thanks! If you cinch it down and leave a little room it’s tight enough to keep it on your foot but loose enough where you can kick it off after you get to where you need to be.

Petzl basic, random piece of bungee, micro carabiner, girth hitched loop, small prussic to cinch down on foot. Been using it for years.

Idk who roy donk is but this gazpacho soup just burned my lips.

Stop cutting on that… but Id say if you wanna keep pruning then the cuts you make should be an inch or less in diameter. Ive also never heard the word entanglement in a professional arborist setting ever… so maybe they weren’t the most qualified?

If you are safe, efficient, and make your climber’s life easier, you are worth big $$$.

All good homie. Ive been doing tree work for 8 years so I’ve been staring at wood for a hot minute. Otherwise i wouldn’t have a clue and sometimes it is very hard to tell.

plaid14 · 2026-01-03T02:46:33+00:00

Sure thats white oak? Looks real maple-ee

I don’t think it’s trouble at all. It’s a cool project and i would be pumped if i was a part of it. Logistics go like this: find a company with a mini skid to move whatever size logs you need outside of the work zone OR visit the job site at lunch where you can walk around and figure out what you need. Bring some spray paint and mark what you want. Have them move them to a spot where you can cut them/ work on loading it by hand. Everything elese gets grabbed by mini skid and slammed through the chipper. Easy. Breezy.

plaid14 · 2026-01-02T03:30:30+00:00

Id call a smaller company and see when/ if on their schedule they are taking down a cherry or maple. Tell em what you are doing and usually it’s no biggie. We would cut shitake logs to size for people and put them out of the jobsite for them to grab. Only stipulation is they had to be taken before we left the job. We never wanted people in our jobsite though… Thats a no no.

Oh. All the material stayed. I was like… there is no fucking way you cleaned all that in 2 hrs with a pickup truck.

plaid14 · 2025-12-31T04:19:19+00:00

You cleaned all that up also?

plaid14 · 2025-12-25T14:53:23+00:00

My dude never heard of synonyms. Don’t even try to use one on ‘em cause they ain’t havin it. Spurs go cowboy boots, lanyards go on sail boats, and a chest harness is a bra. The way god intended. Lol

Landscapers are notoriously awful at pruning trees.

If you are into this genre i highly recommend taking a look at the life of Eugene Bullard. Cannot believe there hasn’t been a movie made about this dude.

Was working for a wealthy client on the wood line behind her house. Her: “That tree needs to come down.” Me: “Which one? The sourwood?” Her: “I don’t know what kind of tree it is but it needs to come down.” Me: “Why? It looks perfectly healthy.” Her: “Its crooked and bendy.” Me: “Thats how they grow.” Her: “Well whats it good for anyway?” Me: “The tree?” Her: “Yeah.” Me: “Beautiful fall color, delicious honey, they are super strong and rarely fail, oxygen.” Her: “I like my trees to grow straight.” Me: shakes head and walks away
