Stunt Felling with the "Arb Stallions"

[Mike Hill]

We had a big Radiata to come down.We felled it eight feet off the ground as the bank behind had slid down making the Stump hard to get at.

 

We groomed it with the digger to get the thick bark off.

 

Then we threw down some quality lunges.

turns out if you put your laptop on its side to view videos, you get some strange looks from those around you! worth the wait to see the cameraman / rope pulling posse enveloped by debris.

Down where you wanted it to go with no mucking about, pretty good. Well done

The Tree stood in a sandy paddock and the Barkwould have had alot of sand in it.Also there had been a structure nailed to the Tree in the past.Removing as much bark as possible saved the edge on the saw.....until I hit some Nails in the back cut.....
