I'm in good company. For the readers who don't quite know what McRev and TreeCo and Ekka and Lopa are talkin about is that there are a number of secrets I've been sorta waiting to share. On other forums, I dunno, I guess it didn't feel approriate to spill all the beans.
Other stuff, like solo equipment and prototype tree gear, I just haven't discussed much as it could be viewed as encouraging men to work alone, or for guys to test out their own test-gear. Unheard-of friction control methods and 1:1 climbing systems. The climbing systems, I have been 'sort of' sharing on other forums, but I use simple mechanical devices for friction control, and ascenders which means I have
no need for friction hitches, ever. My posting of this has always come up to a lukewarm audience and questions have always stopped before I fully divulged the systems. Maybe TreeWorld is a better place for this. TreeCo is open, maybe if three or four other guys on planet earth had an interest, we could get a thread going.
The Tree Truck system, my pride and joy. A S.W.A.T. system for high-efficiency, small team tree care. 7 years testing this idea. Three prototypes and the fourth and final is merely weeks away, it will have all the bells and whistles. This is a highly advanced beginner's system, allowing a small company to do full-size commercial work. It is small and economical, versatile, efficient and surprisingly affordable. I would very much enjoy sharing all the details of this.
Just having revamped the tool stowage this past week, and installed air shocks today, I am at an all-time high of excitement. Anything in our tool collection that makes us money and makes our jobs easier, those are good tools. This system makes EVERYTHING easier, while organizing and housing all your arbo tools, it takes chips and dumps them off a raised, powered conveyor belt floor.
You really shouldn't get me started. I have video and
lots of pictures. But this should be in the gear and machinery section.
