the 'todays job' thread

Not bad, you could probably do four of them a day

 

Normally I don't work Sundays, unless its for family, friends and their family, so a nice little bonus

That was handy having those fence panels missing. Love doing birch, so quick and easy.

 

Was nice that they could be removed, some jobs I come across people have nailed them in

 

Birch is my favourite too, such a lovely wood, burns well too

been pricing today two nice little jobs!!! Dont think i could do much got this bloody lurgy now!!!

Been mad busy with storm damage the last few days, but this was a fun job on Thursday.

Triple stemmed Euc with two of the stems leaning over the house and phone wires. Not the biggest of beasts by any stretch. I'd seen someone on here winching in the top of the stem of a leaner and then cutting and lowering from the bottom (Wolter?), so thought this would be a great wee job to give it a try.

A GRCS would have been great, but made do with an Ace winch and a friction device. Strapped in the bottom of the stems for control, which proved invaluable as the second leaning stem split awkwardly. Made it an easy save and all came down nicely.

Cheers for the idea.

Few from today's storm damage files, was able to lift it a little with the winch then actually stand it back up once the top was removed, not a single tile broken on the church but driveway has seen better days ;-)

This mornings reduction, been hit hard by ganodermic so the backside had a lot of dead in it which all had to come out, the rest had a 20% reduction, customer looking into getting it air-spaded.
