Lombardy Poplar removals.

[Rich Rule]

Removal of two declining Lombardy Poplars in Oslo. We removed both trees with the assistance of a 55t crane. Quite a bit of deadwood to contend with but both trees done by 12.30.

 

2 climbers in the tree, one to set the chains and one to cut. It worked really well, no real hiccups and efficient, which is nice when the crane is by the hour.

Smooth as always Rich....and great soundtrack. Certainly the logical thing to have 2 up when tip tying and a using crane.....speedy!

Nice Rich, looks ace having all that space on the ground, decent chipper and the avant

[Rich Rule]

Cheers.

 

Josh, it certainly make it easier just to lie down and then drag the timber away with the Avant. There were a couple of near misses with the crane op and cables but nothing popped thankfully.

Good stuff Rich,So good having 2 climbers in the tree doing Lombardys..Hows the Italian stallion getting on?

[Rich Rule]

He is good mate, like looking at pictures of horses but each to their own...

 

The 2 up thing definitely helped keep the bill for the crane down.
