Skillfully re railed

 

Yes I must concur good vid, although as it was OK to free fall the timber I would have just cut and chucked it all.

 

But then I cut and chuck every thing

TBH when I looked at the job thats what I thought, but the branches over the flat roof were 6 - 7 metres long and really quite heavy, trying to haul them out and chuck them with the 2 phone lines underneath them was going to be difficult so I tip roped them instead. Since i already had the pulley in the tree I lowered the thicker of the two remaining stems and chunked the last one.

Now that I think about it you probably can't see the lines in the vid, there were three more running down the lane too hence not felling it SWB.

if you have good ground crew, rig rig rig. one man band with labourer. cut n chuck.

wearing no ring at all doesn't stop degloving if the digit is crushed as the two edges of whatever is trapping it can deglove the finger, i know somebody who had a partial degloving of his finger just from it being trapped between two rollers at a printworks and he was told if he'd had a ring on it might have saved his finger. two sides to every coin, dave: but wearing a glove does stop anything catching behind the ring unless its a thorny tree. I wear an sos talisman bracelet and always make sure it is under the cuff of my gloves. Sorry for the rederail

This is all true, I can remember as a kid watching my dad changing a wheel on the landrover, just as he was removing the wheel it fell off the jack and trapped hus fingers between the top of the tyre and the wheelarch. Amazingly a guy who was there lifted it up to let him get it out, the docs reckoned his wedding ring saved a worse injury. I might still be taking mine off though, or taping it up.
