It's a discussion forum after all.

There is more than one way to skin a cat, all i care about is, we did it to the best of our ability, we did it safely, nothing got damaged and everyone is happy.

Chris I'm pretty sure you and Paul could have rigged that down using 3-strand and hand-saws if you wanted to hang the job out.

I just assumed you got the Bronto in to maximise efficiency, and you certainly got a lot done today.

I should be up next month, and it would be good to catch up and have a crack with you both. Probably just a pint after work, but it would be good to do a day if you have enough on and can understand Otterburnian!

Mark mate it would my pleasure, and yes next job will be done with our rust bow saws, buckets on our heads and im sure ive got an old bit of three strand in my fuel store, may have been soaking up petrol and diesel spills for years but.... How hard can it be

The Bronto was a sure way of maximizing safety to not only ourselves but to the general public and the council working who were working close by.

And its nice to do a big dismantle with a MEWP from time to time, we have 3 big dismantles this week, 1st one was a sycamore climbed and rigged down, this beech and friday a dead chestnut. Id be fooked if id had to climb all three
