Oak dragline removal

[tree-fancier123]

Beautiful location, made quick work of the removal. How could I compete handballing?

Nice iron muscles on the never never.

Enjoyed the song, good acoustic cover

Work smart not hard these days. Hahah I always look to get machines in everywhere I can.

 

The place is rackheath hall in Norfolk. It was used by the usaf during ww2. There's loads of old out buildings and air raid bunkers.

The standard camera angles make it a bit boring.

 

 

Sorry for saying this . I think i've been watching to many August Hunicke Videos.

[Mark Bolam]

Don't be sorry Darrin, it was a bit basic by Ian's usual standards, but there was obviously a bit to think about during that job, and camera work always comes second.

 

The best tree vids I've seen are Drew B climbing a massive Kauri with Jonno, and an American advert for Redwings boots, both filmed by pros with no time pressure.

 

Some of Regs stuff, Climber Giorgio, obviously August and quite a few others are very good at the sharp end.

 

I appreciate any vid that people take the time to put up.

I really should make more effort myself, but I don't think a fat little Geordie pulling Hawthorn out of ditches and knocking over Mrs Miggins pair will ever make me an Internet sensation....

Bills first. Always.

 

Yeah even through we had 4 people on site. 2 were reducing a mammoth yew hedge so time was a real issue to get done in a day.

 

I didn't intend to film it but thought its a bit different to the normal jobs that get done. If I'd of had a boat on site though I may have put a bit more planning into the filming.

 

Yeah that drew and Jono ones good. There's another one that a lad from my way was in when he was in nz. I may find it up later and post it on this thread.

 

Anyway mark, I loved your dangerous rigging on that broke the paver.

[Mark Bolam]

I'd appreciate the link Ian.

 

I'll try and find the paving slab one so Darrin can see what he's (not!) missing!

Ian, can you link my vid for Darrin?

iPhone is failing to deliver.

YouTube 'Cedar big snatch failure' I think.

 

The story behind it was some Aussies Cody Grant and Joe Harris (who's not a real Aussie) were running a workshop and tried snatching a 5 ton(?) lump of Euc, as a rigging experiment.

My vid aimed to better theirs.

 

They took it in good spirits!
