A few from today using a tracked crane to finish off some trees we started yesterday

 

 

Is that the same type one David had in?

We're working in the church's grounds in a couple of months. There's 2 yews a magnificent tulip and oaks. Plus I can go up to the top of the tower!!

Don't think so, we used Coppard plant hire and I think COL used someone from Essex or further afield from memory

 

Edit - I did get the idea from David's job though

Blimey but that's actually cheaper than I thought it would be.

 

If I could find the work for it in my area if be looking at one.

That's new as well I think, only reason I know is we had to show insurance docs to show we were covered in case I put it on its side! Not a massive lifting machine only about 3ton at close range and 800kg at about 9m
