Rate My Hinge.

Beech from todays job.

 My first big stem felling for over 10 years, I found the 084 a bit heavy so borrowed the boss's 395.

 

 

A bit unfamiliar hence the wavy cut, you can just see one of the  ganoderma pfeifferi brackets identified by boss..

 

Tree was topped out day before by one of the Dom's on here while his mate lowered and dragged branches to me on chipper. Boss supervised.

 

It wore me out even doing two short days but a nice change from retirement.

 

Customer's wife and youngest anonymoused, husband elected to split the logs after I ringed them up ?

Bloody lucky you didn’t hit the wife and kid there.

Should be in the stunt fell thread really.

Yeah I’d had a few split today. Not much of a problem when they are small but this one was a bit bigger so stuck the letter box in. I do for most Ash of any size now.

I used to do the same unless they were very neutral , up right then just walk the saw round and don't stop .

Yeah I always try and chase the hinge off if safe to do so.
