Bit of both Adam. 15m MEWP booked for the morning to clear the stuff over the fence, garden and shrubs. Peel out the road side stuff in bigger lumps from within the tree and then assess the situation from there. The two halves are currently held together by two webbing tie down strops, one at about 20 feet and one slightly higher. Gonna be an interesting day tomorrow.

 

Cool.

 

Funny we get some hellishly strong winds down here sometimes and very rarely come across anything that bad.

Just clearing outan SD card and found these from my phone.

 

1st lot is of an emergency Oak job I did in Sept last year.

 

A little bit of history on the job, I reduce this along with Q by 30% 3 years earlier and installed a 4t cobra brace, we intially applied to fell it due to the poor union Council refused and instead reccomend the works we carried out.

 

When I arrived one third of the crown had split out at Trifurcation point some 8m's up luckly only some minor damage to the fence, the cobra brace holding the remaining 2 stems was under tension and holding the rest of the crown up the split almost reached the ground. We had our 15m platform on site but it was way to short for this 24'ish meter tree so I braced the hell out of it with mucho ratchets and climbed it.
