A lime tree hanging over a lake.

 

Badly decayed at the base and some newly planted trees right underneath, the rigging is conservative but also neat and accurate.

 

To better explain my poor attempt in explaining some rigging restrictions in the second vid…..The rigging and climbing ropes were almost on top of each other affording me very little angle the send everything preferably to my right, especially those particular branches leaning to the left. I still cant explain it right....

Never mind, enjoy the vids, about 20 mins to watch both.

Excellent Reg,

 

The Lime removal was top quality, good controlled rigging and saw work. They'd make good demonstration vids to show trainees. What were you using for lowering?

 

The Beech looks like a nightmare for rigging down if the decay is as bad as it looks. FWIW I'd be rigging very small and letting it run to ground and freefalling as much as possible. Make sure and video it - very interested to see how you approach a tree like that.

 

Cheers for posting the vids.
