Nice job max Got a good shape.

 

I love oak reductions can really get out on the ends.

[Chris Harris]

nice one! looks really good:icon14:

[Mr Ed]

Jeez. Looks like the tree lost 75% of its crown / leaf area.

You did a very tidy job, but why thin it so hard?

[Steve Bullman]

i dont reckon its been thinned as much as it looks ed...some of those young vigorous oaks can be quite spare in the crowns in my experience

[Stihlwatersrundeep]

nice job, looks hard to do work wise? being a newby i was wondering if crown reductions can or are done with cherry pickers or just climbing around in the tree out to the branches you need to cut? if the latter you need the constitution of a squirrel!

:wave:Can be done with a cherry picker but much more fun to climb. And quickers imo.

 

I think tha tree is fine we cant always prune them perfect.

no disrespect but i disagree with that ive done 70ft beach with the same spread with a 15% reduction in a third of the time in a mewp than it would of taken any climber i know or have seen and the shape,you could not of evan noticed it had been touched..all you have to do is climb em to dead wood after wich is a breeze!

 

your tree came in nice max!

The limbs aren't lion tails by any means, but the lower branches were thin i suppose, its a shame the lowest branch on the right had to be removed. Was a nice virgin tree to do.

Nice work ,but i'd have ''tried'' [harder said than done with some clients] to sell the customer crown lift and thin, reducing the crown has acheived nothing imo..

 

 

You made a good shape and no doubt the customer is happy...
