Sorry, I checked it again and it's working. Send me a PM on how to pull it, and I will post it like you do sometimes.

I like the new look to the boards with the icons. Always nice to freshen things up from time to time.

Interesting.

That's not in the USA is it?

I've used a lot of circular blade equipment before. Something leads me to believe that there is more potential danger to that tool than meets the eye.

Fort Smith, Arkansas.

Seems a bit indiscriminate way to trim. I understand they have a lot of area to cover, but I sure hope they don't catch anyone by surprise down there.

That thing is cool and all but those poor trees.I still think when they do line clearance that if they can't safley and properly trim a tree out of the lines then the trees should be removed.

Funny...

I was just watching a fairly recent James Bond film tonight, and a helicopter attacked a building he was in with a gadget almost identical. Different blade arrangement, but same concept.

Had metal cutting blades and supposedly cut a pipe and car in half.
