Beech-Crane-removal: the video

[silky fox]

amazing video reg. i,ve learned a lot watching your work..a true master tree surgeon.

Nice Reg.

 

How difficult is it arranging the spider-legs to hold the pick static when lifting?

 

Thanks guys

 

Pete, we used only 2 slings for all but 2 of the lifts which needed a little more care....but even then an adequate arrangment is usually pretty easy to recognize when you're up there

 

The only problem I had on the job is where I'd stabbed my knuckles with a silky the day before. The top of my hand had swelled up like a balloon by the morning of the job, so much so that I couldn't even make a fist let alone grip the rope....hence the gloves

What sort of jacket is that Reg? They look good. I still can't make a proper fist from a tiny silky cut I got a month or two ago! Nice work. Very good crane operator too, smooth on the lift and I reckon that makes you more comfortable

It's a Stein Mr Lancs

[Lancstree]

Nice one Dean. I think Balmers will sell them then, which is good because we get our kit from there.

[Gaynor]

Wow! You made that look incredibly easy. I'm in awe.

[David Humphries]

Just like the Penguins Mr Coates.

Just saw this tonight. Nice video work and even better take down impressive all round. How many cuts to ground level? Paul counted 14. Thanks Reg.

Do you have any exposure control on the POV?
