Bit of a emergency job today, big pop had shed a rather large limb onto a house, the homeowner had got a mate with a 3cx to lift it off before we arrived but the rest of the tree had to go due to a few more cracks in the main union.

Dave the dog dropped what he was doing and came and smashed it down while I chipped and rigged like a mad man. Truck full and 3/4 of a trailer load of chip but left timber in stealable sizes so hopefully that'll go before Monday 👍

Good stuff mate. How long did that one take. Not to long on a Saturday I hope.

Got on site at about 10.30 off by 3. Was a bit of a crash down on path side then mewp and speed line the two stems still going towards the properties, deceptively big tree as got about 11m3 of chip out of it, I was glad I stuck the ifor behind the landy as well as the rb.

I've got it! I have got the power lift for the front which should help [ATTACH]199388[/ATTACH]

 

Holy cow, I've never seen such a device! What is it? how much? Where from?

Presumably it could lift the butt end if a big limb then you could reverse the machine to drag the limb to the chipper?
