Would you climb this?

Nice pic!

 

How did you deal with the trunk with all the brush removed?

 

Agree with above,Remove fence and fell...or get the heli lol

[KGBFINGAR]

Just get the saw into it !

That's the scariest solution to to this problem I've read on this thread so far. Id rather climb it than do that.

 

 

 

 

Apologies for the lack of smiley stuff but I hope that most people realised I was jokingly suggesting one of the worst ways of dealing with it.

I was going to ask you just to hold on there long enough to get my camera.

Everyone saying remove fence, you would be working under tree leave till platform or crane available.

But if the tree was stable enough to climb... Which it was.

 

What would be different of pottering around for a bit underneath it to remove the fence panels?

 

Interesting thread. I had one a few years ago. Luckily I could tie into a neighbouring tree. Swing into the crown. Dismantle to a stick before the fell.

 

We felled it at an angle but for a laugh I removed saws, lanyards etc and as the tree was going over I surfed it down until my climb line took up the tension and I swung away to my anchored tree.

 

We did film it but it was in the days before smart phones and the guy with the phone was also on the pull line. He couldn't hold the phone still for laughing.

The differents between is removal of fence you are under tree and climbing you are above.

You really think it would suddenly drop?

I once made the mistake of assuming a snapped out oak limb was stable, it very nearly hit the groundie and is prob the closest I've been to a serious accident in nearly 20yrs of tree work
