Private work: your own pictures

[jacktaylor]

as i said, i havn't had any experience of working in the arboriculture world apart from a few little private jobs. I am only getting my tutors advice at the moment and i believe what they teach our group is good information. I believe this course is going to help me massively towards knowledge and also experience of starting life in the arb world

Yep, all sounds great, but the point i am getting at is, although the tree ended up in the right place, your instructor should have said;

 

"Yes, thats a nice first fell, but here is how you can improve, and i will explain the risks associated with doing it the way you did"

[jacktaylor]

the equipments ok i suppose, could do with a few new saws but part from that its ok. the chestnut was my first medium fell, other from that we have just been felling scotts pines and larches in a forest

[jacktaylor]

yeh my tutors told me everything about the fell - before-durng and after. risks involved etc. the chestnut was leaning slightly to where it was going.
