Chogging/sectioning down went well

[michael larder]

A slow and steady effort but we did enough. Me and the groundsman got the lumps we took down safely and more importantly got home safe. We had a third man helping us ( not a tree surgeon but an extra pair of needed hands) it was a good learning experience (especially battling against the wind) i still need loads more practice to get to the level i want but its a good start.

Good work! Once you've got over the initial apprehension, learn the sequence and trust the gear blocking down is actually pretty fun

[Scott Walker]

Well done fella, practice makes perfect.

Still take your time though. The speed will come. Just make sure things a right. Cuts rigging ect.

But well done and good on you for asking questions.

Well done Michael, good to hear it went well.

 

If you don't have it already, get yourself a copy of the Art and Science of Practical Rigging; it's a must.

 

As has been said, steady and methodical gets the job done well and safely.

Glad to hear it mate. It won't be half as scary next time you have to rig a stem.
