reduction myself and another did Friday over 5 sheds 2 greenhouses 4 gardens how ever many fences and a patio for good measure 

I hate doing reductions and even more so if it's a target rich environment like that, well done.

Cheers. It definitely makes it harder work so much easier with two up. I find rigging reductions a pita as the bits always get hung up so it was good target practice aiming for the small drop zone. The pints after were well needed

Same.  Rarely do I rig on a reduction

Not my job, I was in for the Sequoia boys yesterday to strip the crown off this condemned TPO ash.

Sorry about quantity of shots, it was fairly manic with a greenhouse directly under the stem and the main road right beside.

Joe Dann was climbing and smashed it in 2 sessions.

Crane came in this morning (I wasn't there) and the boys were done by 11am.

I should have a couple more shots later.

Here are the money shots....

Dropped 2 small trees 1 pine and 1 white poplar then into the log shed for the rest of the day...

Couple of lime reductions today on the sub. Not a single saw started all day. Climbed with another climber - refreshingly different reducing a tree with some else climbing too. And much faster! Many phone lines amongst the second one.

Not so much today but the past few weeks.

Pretty nipply round these parts.

 

Bit of stump grinding on Monday.  

 

Large for tree to rig down on Tuesday.

 

A maple to weight reduce and brace on Wednesday.

 

Today was a RJ of a stand of 9 willows that had been left.  Took around 2-3 metres of the top.  Job was at a kindergarden in Oslo.

so what gloves do you wear climbing in the cold? Pretty big fir tree, when you look at a tree before its trimmed there are bits sticking out everywhere, you ought to be able to get away with wonky lines after trimming to leave a natural look
