Man you like the 192T, you'd probably have an anurism from using the 200T - blows the 192T away for all round versatility.

I use a 200t at work and I own a 338 that gets used on side jobs. The recent use of the 192 has got me itchen to get one. Love the weight on pruning jobs. It is ok on one HAND use, low rpms. Yeah it would suck on a removal but I like the little turd. Why cant they make a 200t with more plastic?oooohhh speaking of one handed ...here it is the 1st real injury in the industry 4 me well.... open wound. and for the weather water loo, Iowa last winter -57 on 300' tower I wish I had sugar 2 blow out of my caffee because it would of reached Blackheath.

OOH! That looks painfull! I agree, hope it heals quickly!


I made the mistake of holding a kitten they were getting rid of for "Free" (hah, free! riiight! nothing's Free!) in front of this little market I go to.
<sigh> I'm such a softie... ended up bringing one of the lil buggers home with me. Cute lil female I named Oreo cuz she's black and white.

Been showering her with love and affection, which she loves cuz she's only 5 weeks old, and she has returned the favor by sleeping with me.

I got her this battery operated toy today thinking she'd LOVE it cuz it moves around and whips this feathery thing all around. Little rascal is SCARE SHYTLESS of it!!! She sits about 3 feet away and watches it intently, but if I get her close to it she freaks and runs and hides, then comes back and watches. Eh.... win some lose some huh? Hopefully it'll grow on her.

I think Ima build her a lil hidey house/scratching post kinda thing tomorow. She really is pretty cute.

Why is it that people have to go aloft in crap weather and when it's fine and sunny you get to work on the ground somewhere where it's stinking hot and not even a breath of a breeze?
Is this one of "Murphy's Laws" or does it just maen that we are being made to repent for some of our sins in a past life? And if I am repenting for some past sin, why won't someone tell me what I did wrong so I can enjoy my suffering just a little bit more?

What's with everyone getting hurt??

BE CAREFULL YOU GUYS!!! Geez....


The customer with the big palm for removal and I have been chatting back and forth for...oh... I guess about 4 or 5 months now. It's getting pretty old.

The subs that I had come out to give an estimate on the stump grind also gave me a quote on what they'd charge to do the removal, which was roughly double what I quoted. High overhead I suppose. I acted like I was just their friend who was coordinating it for them and the guy explained most of the fee as "dump fees" which is a load of horse shit. <sigh>

If I didn't still need the job so badly I'd call them and tell them to go have someone else cut their damn palm down and string someone else out for half a year. Damn....
