Digger jousting!! I like it :001_tt2:

 

It was a close call. But my jcb was 5 ton heavier than the daewoo. So I won by default.:lol::lol:

 

I was a very close quarters job, still is. We did have the buckets "kiss" a couple of times.

 

Its nice when something different comes along and I'm not too busy to turn it down.

A conifer removal from today. Tom speedlined some height out of it, used the portable winch to pull it over, winched it in line with the gap and used the tractor to drag the timber out. Nice day but god dont machine make it easier. :thumbup1:

Machines make everything easier. If you have the right driver.

 

Shame a lot of people still get stuck trying to do jobs the hard way and wounder why it takes too long.

Willow reduction today. No pics though. Imagine a weeping willow smaller than it was this time yesterday.

 

Then a little leggy cherry to reduce. Took loads of length off. Easily 6' all around. Not much left now but the tree now suits its location.
