Can’t really be …
Can’t really be sure, since I don’t know what all was/is inside my kidneys, as far as stones. I only know what I passed.
But I do intend to to the lemon juice thing every so often, with the hope that it will prevent any further stones from forming, and dissolve any that I may now have, but not be aware of.
If, after a few years, I get another stone, then I will have to conclude that it did not work for me.

Pinnacle Studio. As far as I know, it’s considered to be pretty average by reviewers.

It’s called ‘Bad Johnny’. I don’t know who recorded it, as it is part of the video editing software that I use.

The maple tree you moved in Vancouver belongs to my son and his fiancee. I loved “being there” to share the move, even though i am way away in Washington DC.
The air guitar concert was a treat,
Thanks for such a great job,

LOL. You must have been reading my mind. You know, I WAS going to do a duct tape vid from this one, with the burlap around the tree trunk, but no one had any duct tape. The lady I was working for had some, but someone had taken it out of her work bag, so we had to use cellophane tape, which of course was not video worthy.

Alexander, the only …
Alexander, the only machine in that size range and configuration that I can comment on is our Hitachi ZX 135. But I can tell you that in my opinion, it is an excellent performer, except that there is no room in the cab to put a lunch box.
The reason I went ‘blade backward’ on this job was to keep the weight to the rear, so I could drive the machine. Otherwise, it was too front heavy to drive with the tree hanging so far ahead. But do use that trick sometimes when the machine is stationary.

I learned alot from that job (duct tape use #???) and hire a professional, that way you can blame them if something goes haywire!
Good job!

Nice job Al!!! That for sure wasn’t one of those knock off bonus footage reels! Oh, and the strapping based axe solo at the end was brilliant. 5 stars.

I was gonna suggest a Bobcat skid steer with a tree spade but not with that big of tree. Their great for smaller trees though.

Thats the best bonus stuff i ve seen !!
Hope the tree is going to grow again after that bobcat torture.
Has to get water at once and of course to be fixed for the next years.
If you would have gone with the blade first togive the tree a new home you could have given to everything more hight.?
By the way, can you tell me a good excavator 12-15 to with blade? I am searching for a bigger forst maschine ?
Take care Al
