Does anyone else hate these things? The attachments are so weak you can snap 3" limbs off by hand, I'm just glad we did'nt need to lower any of it. At least its not heavy.

Nice pics, For me this is one tree i hate to work on, I had to dismantle one a couple of months back, Lowered nearly every piece down over phone wires. Very delicate & long day.:wave:

Yes, we took down a row of 14 with a postage stamp drop zone, nightmare.

I anchored into the neighbouring tree when rigging down. :icon14:

How can you call a tree that provides us all with so much work. We just planted 250 for a chap in a field as a wind break.

Like all trees are great if in the correct situation:icon14:

I think it was about 80 -90 foot but i did'nt really think about it, i think they look taller because they are so thin, it was certainly pretty wobbly once i felled the top out.
