The relatively large lime that I started dismantling a week ago, "small job" for a friend. I've been doing it it half day at a time as I havent felt like doing early starts recently!

I was intending to fell the stem, which was too wide for my bar. Due to the rubbish and poor escape route I opted to cut the sides narrower so It could be done from one side. I then discovered it were hollow and I wouldnt get a proper hinge in the direction of lean. Its a heavy lump, so that only left chogging it down in small peices using spikes and a ladder.

Currently looks like this, with the stump to come down as low as possible and all the logs cut smaller for firewood, except the two large arch sections that they want as garden furniture.

Going back after lunch and should finish it today.

You're a talented photographer because that looks tiny compared to how big it looks in the video in your learning rigging thread.
