whatd you do in the afternoon then stevie?? :D

 

i brought a climber in for the reduction before felling, so i could do other things on the site, he walked off saying he wasnt going to bust a gut and i didnt have a ladder to access. so i stripped her to 60 foot and ready to fell with half a tank of a 026 and a couple of big thidumps with an 046.in 90mins. she was a bitch to get a start on because she was so wide, but a bit of rope sawing and it was a piece of bun. so we left for 11 am, and came back the next day to fell with the mog. bottom slice would of needed a 6 foot bar and a hiab to lift it. it was 92yrs old approx. all the branches were getting mulched and tidied with a mini-digger so it was just thumpity thump.proper job she was. :001_smile:

Couple of pics I just found on my phone.

 

One. Pete McTree between my legs.

 

Two. Depressing leylandii hedge of doom.

 

Enjoy.

 

What was Pete McTree doing between your legs? :scared1: And in a Tree Wise Men t-shirt at that!

I am so envious of a fell like that.

 

If I was offered a job like that I would probably price it very low just to make sure I won it.

 

Did you cut a slice from the stump to keep for posterity?

 

you'd wish you haddn't by the time you ringed it up good fun climbing them and felling nothing but a swine to move afterward

I'd just cut it into 6' lengths and lift it out with my crane :001_smile:
