No drag beech takedown, back Monday to shift timber and grind stump, about 42 inch diameter at the grcs

[SKStrees]

Willow take down from this week, we were told about the stream but no mention of the 7 phone lines! Mate did the climbing and I was on the rigging.

Reduced and braced up beech

After

Crown brace

Three rods through the base

Drill picked up lots of decay around the bottom brace , not holding my breath it won't shatter in the next storm but it's a better option than completely mutilating with a heavy reduction or felling.

That is a savage drill bit!!!

Where did you buy that?

Thanks

Hi Iana ,Drill bit , rods and the eye bolts all came from tree stuff , unfortunately no one in the uk seems to sell invasive supplies any more !! Cheers ,mat.

I'd have shortened that bolt if it was me Matt😉 bit of an eye opener than one. Top job mate. Nice looking reduction. Good to see some other forms of remedial options too.
