It's still got a few dangles in it ?

I’m not a daily user, bought it for home to run along side log splitter and keep noise down as to not annoy neighbours, was first time use of it yesterday. Torques fine, just let it do what it wants. Cut some 10-12 logs with it, managed fine, not as quick as petrol saw but think we knew that already. Rekon i got about 40mins continuous cutting from a battery on owt from 3-4 inch up to 6-8 inch stuff and like i say some odd bits of 10 inch or so stuff. Was running a 14” bar on it, gona try a 12” bar next weekend as a comparison and time it on both batteries, see what time difference is. Thinking it should maybe give me an extra 5 mins maybe on shorter bar?! Oiler is pretty conserving too, doesnt seem to be any issues bar and chain wise. Shall report back on my findings [emoji106]

Couldn't of picked a better day to be working by the broads.

Quite a lot of shortening limbs on a few veteran oaks, major deadwood over the paths. I think the last big tree I remember a member on her posing in the large cavity.

Where on the broads is this, Flatters?

Crane removal of two compromised Maple trees over a listed building.  
 

Had a internal voice tell me not to tie into one of the leaning stems.  I had an anchor in a more upright, funked stem.

 

As I got 4/5th of the way through the cut it popped and started to open up.  I noticed it when my feet started to move

 

A couple of pictures of the pic and the cracked stem.  Some others of the job in general.  All went pretty smoothly considering the state of them and the potential for property damage.

What the length of that jib, looks very impressive.

Not sure mate.

 

It was a Fassi F820.  It was the same crane that Alistair Macgee has posted all over Instagram.  Just without the cutting head.
