Mr P. you can speed line the timber, I can think of several different ways to do it. With a high speed line set in different trees you can pick the logs off if you can tension the line enough without breaking anything. No need on this job as logs were being stacked behind the summer house.

 

Ian, the speed line was tied off to a birch in the garden. I'm climbing about 1 or 2 days a week at the moment. Got some interesting jobs coming up. Next ones a veteran lime to reduce with a crane on Monday if it stays dry

 

Im guessing the operation is now fully healed? Be sure to get them on film, im not doing much interesting at the moment just a lot of deadwoods. :thumbdown:

I took my gopro to work yesterday as it was such a nice day.

 

We speed lined the brash out over the summer house and lowered the timber. 2 and a half hours from setting up to tree chipped into truck and all timber rung up and stacked onsite.

Hi James, you sure you drove past? It's the last house in a cul de sac. I always hear chainsaws every time I work in west hill, but that's not too often really.

 

We charge the same rate to all of our clients regardless so there's no loading for places like west hill. In fact I find west hill to be a very price conscious area and I don't get too much there apart from repeat clients. You'd probably be surprised how much that tree didnt cost. It was on the deck in 2 hours.

Maybe it wasn't you then? We drove past transit and chipper whilst someone was climbing. Can't think what the roads called just past the mini roundabouts. We quite often work in West Hill (I subbie in to Greentrees) in fact in down your way quoting a job this evening.
