1,258,580. Patented Mar. 5, 1918.
Y v Y @ww/Moc ,all/(183 iter @0i/140,00
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Mar. 5, 1918.
Application filed January 30, 1917. Serial No. 145,505.
To all whom t may concern.'
Be it known that I, DAVID J. LAssrrER, a citizen of the United, States, residing at Ci'essinont, in `the county of Lee and State of Kentucky, have invented new and useful Improvements in Rope-Clamps, of which the following is a specification.
The present invention relates to improvements in stop clamps for ropes or cables, and the primary object of the invention 1s to produce aii article of this character which may be readily applied to the rope, easily adjusted thereon and effectively secured thereto.
With the above and other` objects in view the improvement resides in the construction,
combination and arrangement of parts set forth in the following specification and falling Within the scope of the appended Claim.
In the drawing:
Figure 1 is a perspective view illustrating the application of the improvement,
Fig. 2 is a central longitudinal sectional view through the improvement, and
Fig. 3 is a transverse sectional view approximately on the line 3-3 of Fig. 2 and looking in the direction of the arrow.
My improvement can be employed upon a rope for any number of purposes, as for instance, to form a stop member for the rope so that the same can be engaged in a bifurcated member such as a cleat, etc., or so that the same provides a stop to permit Vof the easy handling of the rope, as for instance, when it is desired that the rope be drawn manually in one or both longitudinal directions, and also for other purposes wherein stop lugs are desired upon a rope or cable.
In carrying out my improvement I provide a barrel 1 which is preferably round in cross section and which has its bore at one of its ends threaded, as at 2, and the said bore being flared or cone-shaped from the terminal of the threads, as indicated by the numeral 3. Within the cone-shaped bore I arrange a pair of similar clamping members Each of the clamping members has its outer surface flared to conform with the ared portion 3 of the barrel 1, and the inner or confronting surfaces of the said clamps are provided `with rounded depressions 4* extending the entire length of the said clamps. The clamps, of course, provide wedge members and when the same are drawn outwardly of the flared bore 3 the in rope gripping engagement, I provide an adjustable member 6 having a reduced threaded portion 7 which is adapted to engage with the threads 2 in the barrel 1, and it will be apparent that by screwing the said member inwardly of the bore of the barrel l,
the end thereof will contact with the outer and widened ends of the clamps 4 to force the said clamps outwardly of the flared bore and toward each other and consequently into tight gripping engagement with the rope or. cable 5. The member 6 at its outer enlarged or shoulder portion is provided with a plurality of angular faces or walls 8, whereby the saine may be readily screwed within the barrel or unscrewed therefrom either b hand or with the assistance of a suitable too such as a wrench.
Having thus described the inventiomwhat I claim is: y
A rope stop clamp comprising a cylindrical body having smooth exterior' surfaces, an end surface of the body lying in a plane at a right angle to the axis of the body, the said body being provided with a centrally located smooth conical bore the smaller end of which opens at that end of the body which is )rovided with said piane surface whereby t e solid portion of the body is rendered transversely thicker a't the plane of said surface than at an other transverse line, the body being provided at its opposite end portion with an internally located thread, semi-cone shaped clamp members fitting within the said bore with their outer surfaces in close contact with the conical surfact` of the bore, the edges of the said clamp members being spaced from each other, said members being provided at their inner sides with longitudinally disposed channels which are arcuate in transversev sections, smooth and less in diameter than the diameter at the smaller end of the bore, and an externally threaded member adapted to engage the thread of the body and having a central opening of greater diameter than` the diameter of the channels of the clamping members.
In testimony whereof I aix my signature.

Can Flower Carpet and/or Drift Roses be pruned in summer/fall?
Ashlie NeevelJune 5, 2013
I am curious if it is possible to prune the Flower Carpet Roses or Drift Roses in the summer and fall if they get too big. I would like to plant them inside my neatly trimmed buxus beds and want to maintain a manicured looked. Is this possible?

Please lay out the physical principles on an engineers level! Stating something isn't simply possible because it simply is a newer design isn't engineer worthy. (it's the why'se and becauses that count)
And actually, argumentation that fails to adress the Y's mostly stinks.
1.) a backup generator, when not running hot but been put in "warm" start condition, will NOT fail to start ?
- it has a chance of not starting
- it has a chance of producing an
Yes, even when a backup generator is not flooded it can fail. Ohh yes, and a backup generator chances of failing are even better when subjected to earth quakes.
And another poster corrected you on wave height.
Also the coast line in Fujian "looks" a bit shallow don't you think ?
the advertising anouncement you posted does not state much of the information you "suggested".
Especially the term "much more adequate fashion"
meaning it's conventional but has more fail safes built into.
Again please don't try to suppress physics.
You need to actively pump coolant into the reactor and in this case it means sustain the operation of all three cooling loops.
If one loop fails you have safety margin, increasing the energy amount in one cooling loop == make it hotter but this gives only time to fix something.
And this means pumping pumping and pumping and then vaporizing water.
There is no hint given at certain intercoolants like salt or low temp. melting metall, or even a free convection style cooling of any kind.
"The ACP1000 is a pressurized reactor in a large dry containment, that can contain a molten core without overpressurizing the containment."
Please don't try to alter physics, if your inner cooling loop is broken - which is - if the link is correct on that detail - water, can separate Hydrogen from Oxygene your reactor can go boom.
Heat something up, it expands, encase it and you have increased pressure.
The only solution would be to "vent" which will vent radioactivity into the air. - only true for inner most loop.
And as you stated yourself it's a pressureized reactor - here comes the Y for the pressure, increase the boiling point of water, because when water boils it looses it's "wanted" moderating function inside the reactor, and it would drastically increase it's volume = in a containment building up pressure.

ruby red grapfruit (wanted)
Anyone have Ruby Red Grapefruit seeds?
I had one when I bought my property, but the no-name storm of 93 weakened it. I thought it was going to make it, until the house mover ran over it with my house. I was pleased...
Never knew what kind it was until recently when I tried a ruby red grapefruit... I remember mine being a little bit sweeter, but its the closest I've ever tried for sure.
Any way, I have a couple of acres... So I'm willing to grow out a few varieties :). Willing to trade most anything on my grow list... I have a number of veggies and herbs besides... Alternatively I can send a SASE.
Jsschrstrcks, not sure where you're located, but a lot of us cannot mail any part of a citrus, seeds, scion wood, fruit, etc. due to the restrictions placed on certain states (pretty much all the "citrus" states). And, cannot receive out of state citrus either. So, let us know where you live, first. If you're in Florida, California, Arizona, Texas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama, Georgia or S. Carolina, you're living in a quarantined state, and most likely cannot swap seeds. Check with your local county extension office or local USDA office to see. The days of swapping citrus seeds are going by the wayside with HLB, Citrus Canker and Trizesta virus I'm afraid.
Patty S.
Here is a link that might be useful: Save our Citrus Web Site
I am in florida unfortunately... So that means I would need to find someone here locally in Florida that I could meet and pick up seeds/seedlings from?
The local nursery is consistently out of everything but limes, lemons, and citrons. They are getting 50-75$ for a 2 gallon plant as well. Here locally any way.
If I were to find a local individual, would it be legal if the seeds went through the mail, but not across state lines?
I don't want to get in trouble - as you can imagine.
I'm off to go read that link you posted.
Virtually all citrus you buy is from a scion that was grafted onto a different rootstock. The scion, which becomes the fruit bearing part of the tree, is chosen for its flavor or other qualities. The rootstock is chosen for its disease resistance. If you plant a seed, it may not be as hardy a tree as you want. That's why the trees at the nursery are more expensive, although compared to California, your Florida trees are super expensive. It could be because HLB is already pervasive in Florida.
Are you dead set on seeds? I am not sure where you are in FL but $50 for a 2 gal is crazy expensive that is what a 7 gal runs down here. I do not understand why you don't just order a 4 inch grow pot from someone in state like Harris or Brite leaf for $15 bucks plus shipping and be done with it. On a side note I noticed you had white 7-pot seeds, do you know of any source for those, as I do not have anything to trade at this time.

Any deer hunters in Texas
Vickie56December 30, 2006
Hi all,
I just found this site. My husband is an avid deer hunter.
I know that he'd really like to check in with any hunters from Texas. When he gets back fron his lease, I'm gonna tell him about this place. Sometimes, I think he loves hunting more than me.... just kidding. If you're from Texas and love to hunt, you'll have your very own pen pal right here when he gets home!!! I guess pen pal is not the right word. Maybe.... source of information of where he's hunted now and in the past. Good luck to all you hunters...
you know that your time is running out!!
Happy New Year..
Decatur, TX

Scientists Demonstrate Virus That Spreads Across Wi-Fi Access Points 68
from the proof-of-concept dept.

"You're using your own personal definition of virus unlike the rest of the world."
Oh, the irony. You just randomly made up your own definitions after accusing the (much more correct) OP of the same.
"A worm generally causes no damage and just likes to spread."
There is no stipulation regarding payload or lack therof for a worm. What makes it a worm rather than a virus is that it is an independant, stand alone program or file that doesn't attach itself to a host program or other file.
" Virii generally cause damage and spread."
Again, no payload stipulation is appropriate. What makes it a virus is that it attaches to a host program or other file and spreads by attaching to other host programs or files.
"Still a worm though, because that overload was a bug, not a feature."
Again, no. The RTM Worm was a worm because it did not attach to other programs; it was an independant program. Payload has absolutely nothing to do with it. The trouble it caused could have been quite intentional and that wouldn't change a thing. It was a worm regardless of the payload or lack therof.
What is worth doing is worth the trouble of asking somebody to do.

We stayed here for 2 days and overall, I can't think of anything I disliked about the hotel. The location is central and easily accessible - would not be more than 15 minutes walk from the key tourist spots. The check-in process was quick and hassle free. Wifi was free and access details provided during check-in itself. Our double bed room was large and spacious, with a separate bed for the kid. The bathroom and WC were kept in separate areas, with ample toiletries. The staff was friendly and helpful - we were tired and wanted to hire a cab for attending a concert nearby. We requested the hotel for arranging a cab for us and this was done promptly - we again called them for a pick up from the restaurant and within 10 minutes, our cab arrived. Breakfast was sumptuous and provided a lot of choice. Overall, a very pleasant experience and hope to back soon!

Thin permafrost cap at risk as oceans warm
Staff Report
FRISCO — Arctic scientists say a thin cap of seafloor permafrost that caps potent greenhouse gases will probably start to leak more as the oceans warm.
The research focused on the Kara Sea near Siberia's Yamal Peninsula, where recent permafrost sinkholes have triggered concerns about increasing releases of methane. Continue reading

"Gearing up" for another CNC build thread
Kinda... over the next week or ten days I'll be converting my Joe's 4x4 CNC from lead screw to rack and pinion. I originally started building my machine in November of 2009 and have been cutting with it regularly for just over two years.
The pictures seen here are taken on the current machine, and are parts that I'll use to convert it to RnP.
|Mar 22, 2012, 07:12 AM
Belt reduction kits showed up yesterday... very nice stuff from cncrouterparts.com
BTW the rack came from Moore gear. Thursday call and Tuesday UPS truck with a custom drilled rack. GREAT service.

I was Harry's Cast CNC #44
I am in the final stages of finishing up a smaller V 2.5, looks like my cut area will be 22.5 x 48 inches.
|Mar 22, 2012, 09:40 AM
Very nice. A friend of mine is doing a Harry's cast CNC too...

Dumb question, but what does the rack & pinion enhance? rigidity... positioning... backlash issues... transit time...?
|Mar 22, 2012, 02:47 PM
Yeah, my CNC has spawned parts for half a dozen or so others, as well as cutting some part modifications for itself.
As for RnP...
It's a little more forgiving of slight racking issues on a homebuilt machine, and increases my rapids since I'm not spinning a 6 foot long leadscrew anymore. It also eliminates couplers which can be a PITA to keep from slipping.
The big reason is that it increases my cutting area by about 40% without changing footprint since the pinion can run right to the end of the rack, where the leadscrews have boxes that carry a bearing on each end and the stepper, all of which deduct from travel. Right now I have seven inches of unusable table at the front and back of my machine and with RnP on the Y/A axis I get to reclaim all of it in the front and most of it in the back.
Gearslop is very similar to or a little better than the backlash on standard ACME screws, and drag is quite a bit lower, especially if you upgrade to a ball screw for more accuracy. All of this makes a more maintenance free, faster, cleaner machine with a larger cutting area.
|Mar 22, 2012, 04:55 PM
Tom Looking good.
Soon I will be calling you for some simple test files for my CNC.
|Mar 22, 2012, 11:17 PM
I have you covered Russ. Just let me know when.
You should probably start with a 1/2 ballnose, a 1/4 endmill, 1/4 ballnose, 1/4 endmill .060 radius, and maybe a 1/8 collet with 1/8 endmill and 1/8 ballnose. Those will cover most situations for now.
I probably have over 100 different bits now and 5-6 different collets. It's really a bad addiction. You start losing sleep trying to figure out how to match a tool to a part (of a part) so that the machining is perfect. Next thing you know your credit card is maxed out on little chunks of carbide.
|Mar 23, 2012, 10:04 AM
One of my favorite uses for my CNC is as a router table. I'm using a 1/8 roundover here to clean up the edges of the parts for my new X axis carriage.
Time to paint on 8-10 coats of wood sealer so I can do finish sanding and assemble with epoxy.
My McMaster order arrived yesterday so it's officially on this weekend.
|Mar 23, 2012, 02:40 PM
I to rounded all the edges before gluing it all up. Makes it look a litlle better.
That wood hardener stuff is great but don't get it on your hands.
It turns them a nice shade of black for a few days.
|Mar 23, 2012, 02:50 PM
Yeah, I have used it a bunch of times in the past, including on my current CNC.
I think the roundover and a good coat of paint keeps it from looking like a homebuilt machine. No sense in building something ugly after all.
BTW... I should have a box ready for you by mid week next week.
|Mar 25, 2012, 09:42 AM
Sealed, Painted (first two coats) parts
Today I get to glue together the carriages. If I didn't have to play hockey tonight I'd probably get the wiring harnesses updated. Today the Y/A axis motors are fixed at the back of the machine, on bearing blocks mounted to the 8020 and hardwired back. With the RnP mod, the motors will be on the carriages, moving with the gantry so I need to reroute cables, probably make new ones, and wire more "stuff" into the gantry wiring harness.
BTW... this is how messy your machine will look in a couple of years if you actually use it. It's surprising how much static electricity the dust removal hose generates (even with a ground) and how the statically charged particles stick to the wall behind the machine.
|Mar 26, 2012, 09:08 PM
A few moments with a push broom will have that wall looking like new
|Mar 29, 2012, 07:13 AM
Tom is it all together?
Like to see some pics.
|Mar 29, 2012, 07:40 AM
I'm taking lots of pics Russ. I had an issue with the paint not wanting to dry over the weekend here (raining / humid) so I have all of the carriages painted and assembled now.
I had to find a local supplier for bushings since Ahren sent me the R&P kit with a 1/2 pivot instead of the 3/8 that I'd ordered. I just got the bushings last night and I'll press out the old ones / press in the new ones tonight. Assembly doesn't look like it will take long so I may take a stab at it tonight.
The wiring will take longer than anything else.

... windy with seaweed all over the beach. The village may remind me of Noosa but the beach couldn't be further from it. We were able to see the Bush home from where we stood. Amazing spot.

I found Moose staring into my closet! It was a little 'Blair Witch Project' style, staring into the corner! I think I left food in the pocket of my jacket He is a foodie!
HAHA! We were laying on the couch this weekend, watching TV when Moose came in-between us. He wedged his bottom onto the couch.
Just a friendly reminder to spend a little extra time with your cat or dog today! While us humans enjoy our decorations, food, special visitors, yummy cookies and Santa, our animals may feel anxious and un-settled. Make sure the animal has a similar schedule of activities to remain calm. Spend a few extra minutes on
Merry Barkmas from our four legged family to yours!
How cute is this?!?!?! This looks like Moose when he was a puppy
Moose went to the dog spa for two weeks! That means….vacation for us! Look for more posts in two weeks
We were on the fence of when to neuter Moose. I conducted my research for a large, mixed breed dog. I found various reports of recommendations. Neutering does increase longevity. On the other hand, neutering was thought to prevent certain cancers are now thought to be increased by neutering. We decided to do what was best
We bought this dog toy for Moose at a sporting good store to try at the beach (not in the water). This is one of Moose's favorite toys (other than his multiple bones, turtle…….).
One of my friends received training treats for her new puppy. But her new puppy has stomach issues and she did not want to introduce new food other than rice and chicken. So she gave us new treats to try! The brand name is Wet Noses. The treats are made in America, all organic and natural

This week's drink (a day later than usual due to the bank holiday) is a twist on a Palmetto recipe, using the amazing Rumbullion! XO along with a couple of superb vermouths, and Bitter Bastards Black Truffle Bitters. The Black truffle notes add a superb, almost ethereal balance to the drink that makes it probably my favourite creation of the last few months.
It's a simple drink to make, which I'm sure will be welcome after last week's (and next week's) more prep-heavy drinks.

Right then campers. Time for this week's #MasterofCocktails. This week it's a Gimlet recipe, one of those that's super-simple if you do a bit of prep. We're going to be venturing into slightly more prep-heavy territory soon, so this one's a decent bit of practice. As ever, we'll be publishing all the directions in advance (in the case of prep) here and on the Master of Malt twitter, along with the cocktail recipes so you can either make it along with us, or come back to the drink at a later date.
As such, we'll be making our Gimlet using homemade Lime Cordial. You could make this drink with shop-bought, but honestly? It's just not worth wasting good gin on. The lime cordial only takes minutes to make, and lasts for weeks in the fridge.

Well hello there Flip fans – it's time for another #MasterofCocktails. This week, we have a Coffee Cocktail recipe for you.
Confusingly enough, there's absolutely no coffee (liqueur format or otherwise) anywhere near this drink. Nevertheless, I'd take it after a meal over a cup of joe anyday. So, straight to it.
Starting with an ingredients picture that doesn't have all the ingredients... Since last week I've discovered that including sugar syrup and Angostura bitters makes for a yummier recipe. So grab those too.

Hopefully you were all paying attention during the last #MasterofCocktails, as we made the most important part of this week's drink(s) a week in advance – the Oleo-Saccharum (a fancy term for sugared peel).
There's nowt better than being able to have your guests serve themselves amazing punch, and sorting the Oleo-Saccharum ahead of time will save you a load of effort. You also won't have to 'work' the sugar into the peel, and will also ultimately yield better results.
In case you did miss it, let's have a look at how you should make your own Oleo-Saccharum a week in advance in preparation for making your Gin Punch...

Now this really is a very, very simple drink, but, like the Mojito from a few weeks ago, one that people love to overcomplicate. The most common over-complication is the belief that you need to stir a sugar cube with the whiskey forever and a day...
Luckily enough though, some bright spark has invented this stuff. It's called Sugar Syrup. You may have heard of it.

After a break from Daiquiris on #MasterofCocktails last week, they're back in force with probably the finest evolution of the drink – maybe with the exception of Artesian's Frozen Banana with Caviar... and I'll be having a crack at recreating that one in a few weeks' time incidentally... but this week we're going with The Hemingway Daiquiri.
He liked a drink or two did old Ernie, and this recipe is a fine legacy indeed. The theory here is essentially unchanged from the standard, only we're going to be replacing boring old sugar syrup with Maraschino. The original recipe also calls for a splidge of Grapefruit Juice. Not convinced it needs it myself but we'll stick it in anyway and you can easily omit it if you've not got grapefruits in (who does, usually?).

As a big bunch of whisky fans finally went their separate ways after another ace-looking Dramboree (Jake will tell you more soon, but I hear the barbecue was pretty special...), and a Serbian was embraced in the final throes of an epic battle with a Swissm'n somewhere in southwest London, it was also time for another Sunday night #MasterofCocktails on the twittersphere.
This week we made a Cosmopolitan. Controversial? Shouldn't really be. They're yummy if made correctly, and definitely a 'proper cocktail'. So here we go...

Right then y'all. It's time once again for #MasterofCocktails. This week's drink (and next week's come to think of it), are both drinks that you *should* feel comfortable ordering if they're made correctly.
They are both pink though. Very pink.
This one (as you may have guessed) is a Strawberry Daiquiri. We're making it properly, which means no strawberry syrup, no strawberry liqueur and absolutely no sweet and sour mix. Shall we?

In this week's #MasterofCocktails we're making what is probably the most abused drink in the history of all time: The Daiquiri.
It's such a blisteringly simple drink when done correctly. Rum. Sugar. Lime. That's all.
Now, there are some variations worth lauding (we're going to do a few over the next couple of weeks), but the classic version is one that should be in everyone's repertoire.
The recipe really couldn't be simpler. Can you remember the following?

So, time for #MasterofCocktails. Apologies for the kerfuffle over the last couple of weeks, we've been on an island in the sun. While we were on Islay, I showed you how to put together two quick cocktails on Twitter – the Handmade Cocktail Company's Manhattan and Vieux Carré.
Have a peek at the #MasterofCocktails hashtag for methods and recipes, which can also be handily found on the actual bottles. All you'll need is some ice, glasses and the appropriate garnish.
Right then, Normal Service now resumed. This week we're going for a Gibson. A classic Martini Variant using an onion instead of an olive or a twist.

Featuring rugged aluminum and stainless steel construction, an SOOW explosion proof cord and solid rubber tires, this unit is designed to provide durable, reliable and safe illumination that can be easily moved about the workplace.
Carrying two metal halide lamps mounted to an aluminum framed and rubber wheeled cart, the HAL-2X400C portable metal halide light cart from Magnalight.com is capable of illuminating 50,000 square feet of workspace. Approved for Class 1, Division 2 locations, this hazardous location light cart can be easily wheeled to the desired area by one person. The two 400 watt metal halide lamps on this unit produce a combined total of 72,000 lumens and are mounted to the cart via an adjustable and removable mounting bracket. The lamp assembly on this portable explosion proof light cart can be adjusted vertically and horizontally to provide precise coverage of the work area, and can be removed from the cart for easier stowing and transport. The weatherproof metal halide lamp housings are constructed of powder coated aluminum with stainless steel hardware for durability and corrosion resistance. The aluminum cart features a removable and adjustable lamp mounting assembly, solid rubber tires that will never get flats, a durable yellow finish, and two integral handles for easy maneuvering. Included with the portable lighting package is 250 feet of SOOW explosion proof cord ending in an ECP1523 explosion proof straight blade plug to provide safe connection and plenty of length for use in large work areas.

"This Magnalight portable hazardous location light is designed to accommodate low ceiling height spaces," said Rob Bresnahan with Larson Electronics' magnalight.com.

A MAN has died after suffering serious burns after setting himself on fire in broad daylight.
The man, who was in his 40s, was taken to the Queen Elizabeth Hospital in Birmingham with 90 per cent burns to his body following the incident at 9.25am yesterday (Thursday). He later died as a result of his injuries.
The Worcestershire Coroner has been informed and an inquest will be held in due course.
Police are still investigating the circumstances but not seeking anyone else in connection with the incident.
A spokesman said: "Officers would like to thank those witnesses who have already come forward to help their inquiries."
Witnesses told the Standard they had seen the man set himself alight on the roundabout at the junction of Woodrow Drive and Studley Road, not far from the Hill Crest mental health unit where he was a patient.
Nizar Minsaria was driving a Diamond bus around the island when he heard a shout from a passenger.
"I pulled over just past the island got off the bus and saw him go up in flames so I got back on the bus, smashed the glass and grabbed an extinguisher. I shouted at him to get on the floor but he just stood there so I squirted him with the extinguisher," he said.
"I managed to put most of it out and then someone else came out from a warehouse with another extinguisher.
"He just kept saying sorry. It was horrible."
Insp Jane Kembery, from West Mercia Police, said: "We are investigating the circumstances but it does not appear anyone else other than this man was involved.
"This is a busy spot and there was a lot of traffic passing at the time. We would like to hear from anyone who saw what happened."
Jan Ditheridge, director of service delivery for Worcestershire Health and Care NHS Trust which runs Hill Crest, added: "Our immediate thoughts are with him and his family. We need to understand what has happened and will undertake a serious incident investigation."
Two fire crews, police and ambulance staff attended the scene and traffic was diverted away from the junction until 10.30am.
Anyone with any information should call 101, quoting incident number 76-S-190412.

October Glory Maples close to gunite retaining walls?
First time poster here. We recently had some landscaping added to our yard. Our landscaper planted 2 October Glory maples somewhat close to and inside the raised area of a new gunite retaining wall we built. The closest one is about 20 inches from the wall edge. Is this going to be a big problem in the future?
I'm very paranoid about root issues since we had 8 very large redwood trees removed from our yard that were causing big ground/patio problems.
He said they'd be okay since the roots go down instead of out (as in the case of the redwoods) but just thought I'd check with the experts here.
Rubbish: all trees outside of deserts concentrate roots near the surface. While on the one hand coast redwood is basically the biggest tree in the world (when proportions reported for specimens no longer standing are considered) red maple is no small bush either - if you feel the planting locations cannot support full-sized trees growing over 60' high and so on then the maples are not going to work out.
And in California I would probably not give the space to a cold climate tree like red maple, that does not require the California climate - instead planting something that I couldn't grow in most other parts of the country.
If the red maples were their idea then that's two ways they are not giving you the best service (the first being the hogwash about them rooting down, away from the wall, in a manner completely different from the redwoods). Depending on what specific part of California you are in the maples won't necessarily be completely happy on your place as well.
I just saw this pot and laughed.
Roots down? Huh? They're not tap root trees.
I have a couple of October Glorys and Autumn Blazes. Huge root systems.
Have you ever had a garden & tried to plant something around a maple? First, not only do you have to dig through a spiderweb of roots, the replacement roots will suck the life out of the soil. Hosta and Hellebores are your best bet.
I just had a downspout water pipe run beside my house. I have a tornado-downed maple that was probably 30 years old. They guys are using a chain saw to cut through huge roots more than 15' away.
I'd find a happier place for these trees, even if I had to sell them online. The advice above is wise.
20" OMG. what kind of a landscaper are these fellows?
