can they handle up to six inch trees by using multiple guards

If you are using the guards for rodent control, I would go get chicken wire to wrap loosely around the trunk. If sun, burlap wrap. For a tree that wide you would have to use to many and they would be tight and may pop off easily. Even the 3-4" trunks take quite a few of the guards.

That might not be the most cost effective manner of protecting your trees, but it should work fine.

Sure, just start the second one where the first one ends. You could even duck tape them together but it would not be necessary.

no more than two. Plant them close to the rear or you won't be able to tie them to the trellis.

It probably is strong enough to do this as long as you overlap the velcro onto itself enough, and if the tree limbs are small enough. You'd probably need to use more than one piece to hold the branches. It's worth giving it a try.

two would be plenty. One would likely not be quite enough, esp. if you have to do railing, balusters, and support posts.

Yes, you should be able to because you loop it over itself to secure it. If I remember correctly, it comes with an extender strap for thick branches.

Yes, we have had as many as six. I also expanded the lower part to make room for when they cannot free range. I also put4"X4"s under the exterior bottom and placed patio stones around the exterior to prevent varments from digging under.

their basically designed to get new tree root systems started & watered because their roots are'nt established. But during the dry part of the summer it certainly won't hurt the older trees provided their trunks fit in the opening in the top of the treegator. If the trunk is bigger than 9 - 12" the treegator might not be able to zip up all the way which won't allow it to work properly.

yes, but I would recommend something with a shorter blade height so you can fit it between close limbs (only applies if they are still on the tree). One of the collapsible hand saws are great for this purpose

The manufacturer recommends a minimum of 5'' timber posts. Will a 4x4 post work too? We are having trouble finding a 5x5 post and feel 6x6 will be way too large.

Would probably not work, we have a 4x4 and there is some extra but probably not enough for a 6x6

It has the power too, but if they are long vines, they probably will get wrapped up in the tillers a bit. It would work if you have time most likely though.

I used six of these on a bow-making wood storage cart for my shop; haven't tried to weigh the total but it usually carries some 4x8 plywood sheets and cut pieces as well as 6-12 1"x6"x8' dense hardwood boards (bloodwood, ironwood, walnut, etc), 5-10 6' bow staves, a variety of exotic and hardwood pieces, round stock, and various parts of projects underway. With the cart frame I expect it's 500-600#, but rolls well on concrete and changes direction easily. If in doubt, use six. However I wouldn't use these to support and move a machine tool - that's done better with a purpose-made rolling and locking frame.

Almost any tree will work. It is a matter of having enough slack to get you to the other tree or pole and around. I usually find trees about 13"-15" feet apart.

It is technically possible to extend the line, however I would urge caution in doing this as the drain water will be concentrated in minerals and may cause nutrient lock in plants not suited for high TDS water. It should be fine for use with trees with deep root networks. Please consult with your landscaper or arborist.

They are very strong so it would probably work but I would suggest using two!

The chains are probably around 6 feet and I dont see why you couldnt put it on a tree

Yes - they work very well in trees. You'll need additional chain or rope to do so.
