Coronet oak......have I done the right thing?

[Simon Rotheram]

Nice Job graham, how much longer do you think it took to do in comparison with a "normal" crown reduction?

 

We did our first cuts on a mature Ash and some of the cuts took around 20 mins each to do!

[Xerxses]

slightly off topic - just so i don't make a fool of myself when i mention it, how do you pronounce 'coronet'? with the 't' or silent?

(sorry)

I'm guessing it took about 1 1/2 hours and would probably take about an hour for a normal reduction.

 

Thanks for the replies. Looking forward to the next one now:001_smile:

I don't see what all the fuss is about - most of my reductions look like that.

 

Great job Graham, really natural looking.

 

Like Dave, I'm looking forward to seeing the response.
