2 Creosote treated ultility poles measuring 20" on the big end and being 26' long each with an estimated weight of 800# each, an open span of about 22', A Toyota, a utility trailer, a 4 wheeler with a winch and a 3/8" cable.......what could go wrong in this scenario.
Those answering correctly get to see the after photos.

I don't know but..........this looks like it might be better than when my boat and trailer came off the ball in my yard. :D
cable slapped!
Dunno, mabey a mashed finger?
Matching broken arms?
I'm guessin four wheeler at worst was elevated 18' and dropped or best case was flipped.
broke trailer
What you buildin with them there poles? mabey a Poo Joust or sumpin'
you pulled a DonDon LOL
BB could show up to help. Worst thing I could think of
Dunno what it is but if you know any one with a back hoe id be callin them or the local crane service.
You didn't put em zactly where IS wanted em and now that they're off the trailer you ain't got no way of movin them in time to meet her mandatory deadline so now you gonna be in the dog house and she ain't gonna let you go feshin which is gonna PO the boys and now they gonna be mad which is gonna make IS even madder at you which is gonna leave you sleeping with Billbob at the fall camp which is not gonna be good fer you.
Famous last words: Hang onto my beer honey, I'm gonna try sumpin.....
Id say that sums it up MM!!

Probably dosen't have enough power in that 6 banger to do that Slabo.....just saying. :D
He's gonna use the poles to build a sign at the entrance of his driveway.
"WANNABE RANCH"
"CRAPPIE TALKED HERE"
you burned up the belt of that nice sportsman.
Looks like the ATV gets wedged between the two trees the way I look at it.
You people obviously have
a) no imagination
b) no desire to see the after fotos
c) all of the above.
Wannabe...
yep....pretty dull bunch all right.:D
The only pic I wanna see, is the one where IS is standin there pointin to where she wants the poles.Quote:

those poles dont move off the trailer and the 4 wheeler gets smushed into the tree.
It's quite apparent ya'll ain't gonna get the right answer. You forget this is me we're talking about here....Mr. Get'r'dun. Joe Anti Jacked Up. Sir One Pass. Lord Like 'at rite dere. You do know I'm not just another purty face that has incredible knowledge right? Sure, I'm the smartest and purtiest fella you'll ever meet, but it's not all intellectual book lernin'. I also know how to do stuff.
Your penalty for doubting the Great Wannabe shall be for each of you to show up with a treated 2x12 cut to 36" and screw them down with 4" screws using a non-electric screw driver. Work starts at 7AM. Don't be late.
Wannabe...
G-3, you're responsible for the drinks. DD, you will not be allowed to do anything, but you still have to be there.
Wannabe...
What's gonna happen to that bridge as those two trees continue to grow? Mr. getrdone:rolleyes:
Crappiholic, you get a semi-pass from manual labor. You can sit with me on the trailer in the shade and sip diet coke while hurlin' insults at the field hands since you're reply wasn't a bad idea. Be sure and bring you camera. Somebody's liable to mash a finger and we'll post pics of it later and giggle about it.
Wannabe...
Pic is a bit hazy...Is that a stand of 'boo growin back there?
Feelay, you're responsible for supplying the screws and measuring the boards. Some of these folks might have their lady friends fooled, but ain't nobody gonna come up short on me with you on the job.
Wannabe...
Good question feelay.......I can hardly wait to hear the answer. :rolleyes:
Thou shalt not covet your neighbor's boo Feelay.
Wannabe...
Answer to the question....ummm....it's gonna sit right where it's at. But that's just a guess.
Wannabe...
Reminds me of a Robert Frost poem.........
You do understand that as we get older we get fatter, trees are pretty much the same. Can't say for sure, what with the poor quality of the pic, but looks like the poles are darn near agin the trees.
it 10 years when those trees have gained abit of girth as well as him gaining ALOT of girth, he won't get his fat butt through that opening to go steal his neighbors Boo
It'd be best to plain the top flat before you go to screwing those 2x12's on there. It'll be more stable in the long run having more contact with the poles.
Thats ok DD...two years from now the growth from those two trees are going to pop the 2x12 boards off anyway. Besides that....Wannabee stable.....no way! :DQuote:
