Hamas big reduction/pruning thread!

[Tony Croft aka hamadryad]

Lime reduction from today reason for deadwood was the landscapers had severed the roots so the tree is in fast decline, customer wanted to keep it so I done all I could do with it, hopefully it comes back well!.

Being a lime it will be fine:thumbup1:

 

you done a good job on that, kept the nature of the level of reduction discrete, a pollard of aesthetic form is what I would call it.

 

nicely done

this is my first post of a reduction because you all so good! this was a nice oak we did today two climbers, took about 4 hours to complete was ok apart from no room the other side because of a car port and conservatory, but we had done it about 5 years ago so not a huge amount to come off, just 6 foot all around, good job i took this pic, i hadn't noticed that bit on the bottom left until i stud this far back haha

thanks tony and scotty, yea the tp is great chipper, i actually prefer the side entry, it was a good buy, by the boss, I'm gone be honest i was impressed with the other climber, even though his side took quite a bit longer, he is still at collage and this was his first biggish reduction.
