yeah that's what my plan is. I took a maple down today and the guy I work for was shouting and jumping up and down that I was too slow. Maybe I do check and double check too many times but I'm not keen on falling out the tree.

 

 

The idiot also put my climbing rope through the chipper which unsettled me a bit!!!

Sounds like you are working for a nasty bit of work ,I would say get out of there quick ,and find a better person to work for ,chipping your rope is really serious especially if y were up the tree at the time ,the person on the ground is ment to look after y up there , not be a danger to you .a person shouting and balling at you when you are cutting up the tree could make you have a accident whilst you are cutting , if someone is balling at you up there there is one sure way to stop it , every time he does it turn off the saw and climb down the tree.

All the best and good luck littletree :thumbup:

Only joking! Good advice is to go at the pace you feel comfortable & safe.

 

For the OP, the guy put yr rope in the chipper?? By accident or on purpose??? Not that either is acceptable, what a plank!

Cheers guys! And I done that exact thing once, the guy was clapping his hands telling me to hurry up. So I got down and said you do it then... job gone but luckily found one soon enough.
