Sneaky peak of quite a few cool toys in that video, really enjoyed watching that 1 but I feel it was slightly spoil by the short cameo from a sthil top handle

bet he didn't learn that lot overnight

 

a portable petrol winch shown at about 5 minutes? Is the rigging line tensioned with that and then taken off, or stuff just dropped with tension on it?

Think that was 1 of these for accessing the tree. Enjoy.

Better quickly add, check the wife isn't standing behind you while you watch.

If Carlsberg did tree work, that would be how they'd do it. Mustard that job was.

 

At 7.57 does that small branch pop off right close to his head or are camera angles playing a part in it?

not married! can see what I'm missing out on though, never mind.

 

handy thing for a long ascent.

 

so is there a way of tensioning with a winch separate from a bollard and then transferring the tension to the bollard to avoid shock loading the winch?

I mean not like smartwinch or GRCS, but either a petrol winch or a separate harken etc straped on above a bollard?
