Stunt fell pics

Should you have left the hinge thicker on the tension side Dean??

 

It was a nice thick hinge Dave and there was very very little lean on it. I was amazed to be honest

Its a bugger when you can't see what you did wrong:confused1:

 

Do you think boring was a mistake?? would a straight forward back cut have been better in hindsight???

pole prune stunt lop, it was growing across the driveway, but being ash she was kinda chewy, and a wee hinge pic for deano to disect:biggrin:

 

That is quite a hinge for the death on a stick!

Gob was far too deep

 

I had a fell go wrong today

 

so my perfect stunt lop had a wrong deano hinge and your piddly sycamore somehow against all physics went wrong, ha ha. Maybe you just done it wrong.

 

boring sycamore, no chance, putting any form of tension on it, definately not. cut right to the hinge and let momento take it, it will hold but as long as it is constant mate.

wheres the pics.

 

Huck i was working myself so doing the poley pole saved me watching a pavement from up a tree and clearing my feet as i went:thumbup1:
