good video it was posted a while back and i think the guy that done the job put some comments up it was a good thread

[Xerxses]

I must have missed it then... thought it was a good one. Link to the thread?

[Robert_S]

no chance i can hardly find how to log in far less another thread

 

someone will get it, the thread went into why a crane was not used etc...

Big tree.

 

wonder why it was taken down?

looked to be in good shape, to me.

 

Do wish there was more info given on these vids, to give a balance as to the whole story.

 

I know it's aimed at the rigging droolers, and delivers fine from that perspective.

 

But.........

 

do vids like this, dangling out there in the cyber winds of time, show us as an inclusive industry ???

 

 

Good find Tobias

Probably needles in the gutters....and you know how dangerous that is!

Agree with you MonkeyD, it would be nice to know the full story.

cracking video mate, seen it before but never saw the ratchet strap slices, that is genius, i usually bomb them down onto brash and close my eyes and hope for the best, and thats on stuff a quarter that size.

The 3 min video with music will convince so many guys this is the job for them, i can only imagine how hard that job was, how much sweat was used and how much fuel and back ache lol. Hats off to those guys, real tree men indeed:thumbup:
