General Tree pics

[John Shutler]

Todays field maple reduction and ivy removal, rubbish skinny anchor point right over one side of the tree made things interesting.not totally happy with the end result but was limited on what i could do. we reduced the ones on the rear of the boundary a couple of months back

 

edit, not sure why alex is doing that odd face

Looks really tricky and fiddly John mate, turned out well i think

3 years eh?

 

Nice to see a customer getting value for money for a change.

 

I have locked away my Felco no. 2's and any knowledge of growing points for the forseeable future in these hard times.

 

Seriously Dave, can I pinch those shots for my portfolio to try and educate a certain type of customer that 'a good hard trimming' is generally counterproductive?

Knock yourself out Mark

 

feel free to use & abuse at your leisure, not out to win any AA trophies on this one.

 

Might have to re-negotiate my charge with the Mother in law now though

first play with my new rigging device. pretty boring pics but the ability to lift sections level without them dropping an inch is amazing. the bits of oak on the floor are about 8 - 10ft long.

 

edit its kinda like having your own personal small crane
