[defenderjack]

started a long line of evergreen oaks today , total of 30 trees to do managed 4 today and tried to keep them matched in as 1 , jeez there was some skinny poles in the centre ! so glad the sun was shining was dreading doing these in the rain ! good result i think

Nice, I hate reducing holm oaks, not much to reduce back to usually and the bark is very unforgiving on your knuckles!

Nick work..you'll be ruined by the time you've done 30 of those bad boys!!

That is a top job well done you, and it looks tricky with those skinny poles. at least you've made a cracking start to the job you reducing all 30?

cheers guys , i think about 8 are being crown raised etc but the rest are all being reduced , 2 transits of chip out of those , sooooo many cuts to make and nothing falls out the tree like you want it to . i dont find the bark to bad but the tiny dead bits that whip you in the face really pee me off lol !

Great work, but that spec was set by a non climber.

Rereducing those skinny regrowth poles? x30?

 

You, my friend, deserve a beer!

Fair play to you I wouldn't fancy doing them all. How long have you got on the job? You using a silky? Or have you got yourself a baby stihl 150.
