Question Re: Show us your Rig | Truck Set Up

i have herd some people say a trained eye can tell a lot about a person by the shoes they wear. is it the same idea that a trained eye can tell a lot by how people take care of the property? do ya think thats a lot of rubbish, or do you all think there is some truth in that saying?

Gee, nice looking Uni but hey, the trees do need urgent attention.

Does that place not get all the storms, ice, winds etc?

If that question is directed at me Ekka, yeah they get hit just like we do. They just got pounded at this time last year. They are on a typical storm path that hits us. Not the hurricane tho.

Looking forward to regulations , but none yet , state is in process of requiring certification of crane opperators but it wont do much for our industry

I found no relative email addr. so I sent it to one I found and asked that it be forwarded. My guess that by saying I am keeping a record they will respond. I will let you know the response askmeall.

I didn't mean to sound like the "force" was a negative. The news and papers are very fond of rushing to the scene of a crane tip over. Got a lot of picts. It makes us all look bad when one goes over. I think it might help a little if set right with quals.

I think the force is a very good thing , I think At least minimal training for tree removal with cranes should be done before certification . Certification guidelines should pertain to each industry. w.k.b. tulsa

Well!!! . Have you heard anything from Notre Dame, about your letter? I know that it is a five hour drive one way.
When I used to drive transport trucks, I used to get the odd motel room, and I found Motel 6 was the cheapest (around $40.00 a night, if I remember right). You could stay at a motel, and you could add that to the cost of your bill, or hide it in there somewhere. Bruce.
