It didnt break so i dont understand what the issue is you looked and assesed the tree and deemed it safe to climb, and you got it down fine. Most trees tend to bend and flex, its the rigid ones that snap that worries me.

John looks great, but I gotta ask, whats the point in such a 'fine' reduction? Its has a nice new lolipop shape - reshape, but the tree will be back to the way it was in 18 months. Aesthetics? Obviously to make some dough... maybe I just don't miss reducing trees :)

A bit of a oak death this afternoon, Decided to let Tom smash the limbs off as a bit of fun the laid the timber out to drop the stem on. I felled it a bit high as i wanted more sound wood, the bottom section is pretty shot and i'll get some more pictures tomorrow when we clear it up/finish.
