Unorthodox techniques

[munkymadman]

not putting visor or ear defenders on whilst taking tops out cos ladies are watching.

 

better yet have your top off, make grunting noises, to make it look hard. then make a right sing and dance out of chogging a piece. use water if it looks like your not sweating enough ha ha

does any one fold trees in tight spots. idont know if that is what you call it.

if tree is twice the hieght of garden but there is a landing zone(only 5 priceless statues and a gazibo)nip up the tree and put a line on.throw that into nieghbours with groundie.come half way take gub out towards nieghbours and cut enough to hold enough to go with a pull. put another line on below felling cut and give to groundie in garden. nip down and fell into landing zone. with a bit of pulling either way hey presto folded tree in garden. only works on chewy stuff. never had bottle to do it on anything over 30ft. its only benificial when tall and skinny to save on sawdust.

There's a guy in New Zealand does that on monumentally huge Euc's next to the road. Saw a video on the Treehouse years ago. Don't think it was Graham McMahon put probably of the same ilk !!

its having the bottle to shimy down while that bad boy is above you.

i think its a bit like the axemen triple felling windblow. i wonder why so many loggers get hurt?

It was Graham Mcmahon, and the euc was about 170ft high.
