Excellent work Reg, I hope you got at least £500.00 for that day's work.

Tully, I couldn't see any obvious reason for it to hollow out the way it had. The tree was still plenty vigorous.

 

Atree, the jacket is stein, I thought it might get too hot but actually it kept me at the right temp.

 

Gaynor, just ingnore Peter.....he's a bad lad that one:sneaky2:

Reg.... dont want this thread to fly off topic or talk actual facts and figures, but that removal had to be worth a serious amount of cash and I suspect there arent too many climbers in the Manchester area with that kind of crane experience that could get that tree down in a safe and efficient manner, in one day.

 

Hope your employers realise the level of competance and experience you have and pay you what you deserve. Just because the job is easy for you doesn't mean you have to charge a low daily rate in relation to what the company owner is charging for the removal, especially for that type of work.

 

If I hired you in to crane down that tree I'd have no problem paying you £400 to £500 for the day. As a contract climber who has the ability to make companies serious cash you deserve to get paid more. Those companies are making a name and getting a reputation for large tree removals on the back of your skills and experience.

 

Did the last cut dull the saw?

That alone isn't a reason to fell a tree. There are a great many hollow trees out there that are deemed healthy enough to stay put.

I'd like to think this forum was also a learning tool for people like myself that are trying to educate themselves, without fear of ridicule from some smart-arse.

 

Oh dear, looks like I'm on the naughty step!

That'll be a naughty chair Peter, not allowed steps for H&S reasons, too many were made to sit outside on the step and there was a huge increase in the reported cases of piles
