Pretty pointless imo as well as yours, but very tidy.

Could've chogged it all onto the patch of lawn behind if I'd needed to. There was a decent chance of a round bouncing and fucking off through a fence or chicken coop though. 

We hardly ever negative rig.

I reckon it’s quicker bombing chunks onto a half filled ton bag.

I hate chogging unless I can take bigger bits. I eat way too much sawdust otherwise

Poker chips are a pita, I agree.

I mean lumps like half that piece that snapped your loopie.

Yeah generally if I can bomb big bits then that's the way, but fuck being on spikes taking 6" rings. There was over 50' of 25" timber so it was either chog  small or rig.

 

The stem had a fair lean towards the cobbles so chogs would've had to be small to chuck them back towards the lawn.

 

I'll just buy a bigger dead eye.

@Stephen Blair was this the first job with the rotator on the avant? Thoughts compared to the fixed grab?

A job the other day to remove a tall spruce and a number of tall skinny alder and aspen.
