A few from today. Not a big tree but a slight pain in the rear (didn't like the cost of replacing a single slab). Owned by an a-list American movie star, we even got to have a look inside and saw a real Oscar (well from the other side of the really thick glass)

Not very spectacular I'm afraid.

This is one of our 'biomass' jobs for the powerstation South of Rennes.

The 1980's Renault is being driven by Mr Big or Louis Le Gros who is 84 this year!

He's a mind of his own and just loves to drive his beloved Renault.

2 days of tractor work in exchange for a few little jobs around his farm.

There will be an estimated 200m3 of chip from this job.

100 Lawson cypress approx 40 years old

We recieve 13.50euros per ton K'Ching!

PLUS we get paid for removing the trees whey HEY!

Now each time we do one of these I am never around to witness the whole tree chipper in action BUT...this job I can see from my appartment window so I shal make certain that I am around to film the machines in action.

The site will be developed over the next few years but short term it will be a parking for the Tour of Brittany and the Tour de France.

Cheers dude, it wasn't particularly tall, I'd say around 70' I guess. Pretty broad though, and with it being heavily reduced in the past the timber was fairly thick.

 

All things considered it was a pretty easy climb, albeit with practically everything being rigged off over sheds, fences, and a kiddy play area.

 

The poor sods on the deck did the real work today.
