    I'm doing a little fall tree limb maintenance from the tractor pallet forks and decided to get the shot of the stacks.

    Trimming from pallet forks.

    I have the same Worksaver pallet forks and was checking the owner's manual but don't see the section on using them as a scaffold for trimming.
    Be careful !

    Gives you a little different view of your work.
    Looks great.

    Since I weigh less than their rated lift capacity I think I'm good. However never can be to careful when working from elevated platforms.

    Those kinds of pics are :dex:. Such a satisfying feeling to look at our packed stacks every chance we get. :yes::yes:

    Nice view and stacks. I built a little pallet box for working from the forks.

    Seems there is always some tree work that needs done.

    Love the stacks and view, but don't see where your safety rope is tied off on?

    Great pic. Be careful up there. Dont do it off ladders anymore. Hows the ankle/leg from that accident?

    I was only 6.5 feet off the ground which is less than an 8 foot ladder so no safety rope, but a good idea for sure.
