Dead beech dismantle

[Tom D]

This was todays job, I wasn't particularly worried about it as it was barely dead, however it turned out to be a bit of an arse twicher, the upper limbs were majorly brittle like ceramic as you get sometimes with soft rots; still hard to the touch, or spikes but no elasticity at all.

 

Good fun once I got into it, took 5 hours to get it all down (with half an hour for lunch)
