AND, WHILE WE ARE ON THE SUBJECT,
In the military, I once saw a guy gaff-out on a telephone pole during
training.
It wasn't pretty.
Here in NH, cuz our poles use creosote, (I have seen some that use the
"green-stuff" which is a copper-arsenic product, I think) they are
considered hazardous waste. Ten years ago when they redid the poles on our
road, I was able to get a bunch and have used them for a pole barn and
other applications.
I have asked PSNH (our power company) about more poles and they are hard to
get due to EPA environmental restrictions on their disposal.
I have my eye on four poles right now. Hopefully, I'll be able to snatch
them from the jaws of the EPA.
Have a great and safe 4th of July all!
