Had a callout after two jobs today, to this massive copper beech we have deadwooded it before and i have reduced this limb last year to reduce the end weight. this limb was taller than the actual tree.

That's a biggun James. No chance of leaving the natural fracture?

Unfortunatly not as they like everything very neat and tidy its right infront of the big house so they want it looking tidy. Shame cause it was a wonderful tree will soon get very decayed from that wound i think though

Shame you couldnt leave it as a natural fracture, big limb for the tree too.

 

Did you use the rigging to hold the butt up whilst you cut it completely free or just to keep it off the deck?

Used the grcs to tention up the butt end, then i cut through it and placed the limb on the cord wood we had laid down to place it on. Basically just to stop causeing any damage to the trunk or the butress roots that are at the base of the stem.
