Your groundy is worth his wieght dude, I an see why you went away and re jigged that! sweetly done.

 

If I had to pick one nit, it would be that this is a lot of wood impacting on rootplates of retained trees. What we have done in the past is dump a 7.5 tonners worth of chip into a drop zone to take the brunt out of these drops.

 

just something that in this scenario would have been a consideration for me, otherwise, top draw, knarly tree dude!

Your right tony. I couldn't.have used woodchip in the garden and access.was no good for.a.lorry. I had been booked to work on the estate that week but only knew it was this tree the week before. I didn't have a plan as to exactly how.I.would take it.down untill I was up.there. I did think I.might be dropping lumps and had intended to get an old tractor tyre before hand but didn't have time.

 

I.was.aware of the ground.damage but I.was putting myself before the other trees this.time. good point and worth making, Im going to try to.scrounge some big old tyres for the next time we have a similar situation. When are we going to see a hama vid?
