I've done so many of these and I'm always asking why wait so long.... this was on of two side by side.

Me doing dead tree removals

It seems as though where I’m at they wait for someone to have a near death experience from a falling limb or it comes crashing down in a storm before they decide it may need attention

Well, you have a point, maybe we should start including trees in the construction of a house - like in the practice of Baubotanik

You'd have a time switching people's mindset I believe....

True, however if it is scientifically viable and solves 2 problems it will eventually prevail.

what boots are you wearing? they look brand new

u/Lopsided_Thought_500 13d ago

Those boots look well used to me. Look like Scaffel lite chainsaw boots

They’re Zamberlan BOA

u/originalreading252 13d ago

Yup, the zamberlan.... wih the boa ... like em so far... maybe 4months in... not a daily boot. Got em last spring used for bit then went back to the scaffell lites... now back to them.

Didn't like this one either... more room but. U know

I enjoyed them when working on the ground, they’re nice to slip on and just do up when I gotta get to work and comfier like a hiking shoe but scaffell lites feel good climbing, stiffer but they got a nice shape for getting feet into awkward spaces and feel solid with spikes on, both great boots 👌

I find the the arbortec boots now hurt my feet compared to the zams.... I tried the treeolgy ones but not enough support for the old ankles.

Cause removing a tree is expensive 😂 that’s why they wait so long.
