Beech takedown

[David Riding]

How many cups of tea did he drink Peter ?

 

Worked solid for 8 hours with no breaks, mr 3 days a week

 

poor groundies, good job pete

 

I love the way people assume things from photographs Brash was cut from logs and immedately removed and chipped when it dropped, logs were left where they fell as grab truck, came at end of day. Whats the point of double handling everything with manual labour when a crane is on its way?? Logs that fell on drive were thrown back on top of wall to leave drive clear. If you have ever worked with Peter for a day you would realise that you don't get more than a few seconds to remove anything as he is so damn fast. . I know you have heard this all before but... the photos don't give the tree justice 4 1/2 foot dbh and 8 foot accross at buttress.

You know, looking at that job, I cant help but think a nice short wheelbase 18tonne log truck with rearmount crane would have been just the trick.

chipping shattered dead beach, yikes, oh and pete get a haircut lol

[Peter]

That did come up!

 

The grab truck with front mounted crane was a bit useless, every chunk of log on the drive had to be rolled to one side, as he couldnt grab anything behind or in front of the truck.

I rolled one log up to the end of the drive, and sat on it drinking tea and watching them work.
