Oh and there's more:001_rolleyes: Combined years of experience on the on the job, about 170years, oldest on the job 75ish, youngest 17, and couple of us young pups in the middle. Job hoofed out by 1pm today, isnt it nice when everything goes swimmingly well? Really enjoyed this job, and the old woodsman tales at breakfast made me smile. All the guys are a real pleasure to work alongside.

big tree that andy. bet your glad you could get that hiab close enough would have been a nightmare digging rings that size out of the stream by hand.

We had planned every thing meticulously () The only doubt was whether we could lift out the last few lumps. But bouyancy is your friend, a controlled splash into the water (about 5-6feet deep) then the grab pulls them in the water to float them across to the bank, by which time its capable of comfortably lifting them out. We did have a back up plan, a large forestry tractor with double-drum winch and a large front end loader if things got messy, but it stood idle.

That's the biggest thing i miss from the last company i worked for. The hiab saves so much time and effort. She's a brute of a willow too.

I can take no credit for this job, I was a lowly groundie doing grunt work (too thick to deal with the intricasies of such a job) However it was good to work as part of a well-jelled unit, all hands pulling together for a successful outcome, and this job is perhaps one of the highlights of my career. There were far more skilled and experienced people on site than myself, and I looked to them for guidance (quite a rare occurrence at this stage in my life)
