Rigging a big tree

[Frank]

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:

 

A video like that does make the job look fairly glamorous doesnt it.

 

Hardly hawthorn reductions in the rain is it. Haha.

I've done three two of those in my time. Looks glam but is actually hell on earth and I never want to do another!

he must love his harness as even when the trunck in down and the logging up starts it stays on. love the way the trunk is broken down standing as tipping something this wide would be so hard.

I know wot you mean about a vid like this giving the rose tinted view of wot we do, no footage of clearing all the sawdust or dragging all the brash cool vid all the same!

Thought i saw a silky on his harness

 

Looked a little out of place along side those huge lumps of timber

what a shame man, beautiful tree. would of been nice to get more straight long bits out of the wood atleast.

Sorry, I meant three. If I'd done 32 I would have died after the fourth!
