Yes mate, usually works a treat unless the stem is really gnarly.

Splendid! I suppose a highlift wedge would do!?

 

Your wisdom never ceases to amaze me!

£1'800 no matter how you do it. Who cares about the whys and were fores. Give a price that suits you and if accepted crack on and if not move on. Life's complicated as it is.

 

Hi Wayne that's way even if you have the mog and large crane that's min £30k all has to be payed for thanks Jon

Highlifts work fine, but get a beating.

Usually use steels now.

This was exactly my thinking, and I'll definitely be giving you a call if I get it.

I would love to see someone get this done by 2PM as someone suggested as I'm allowing most of a day to get the crown down and 1 load of chip and 2nd day to take the stem down and remove + the logs from the crown away. GregM, where do you operate to get undercut on a job like this for that money ?

Very close to a local Arb college

Just shy of 1.5 days so far just got to nip back and get the large bit of stick and deliver to the mill.

If the tree's going, there's going to be a hole in the driveway. So they might as well get the driveway rebricked. If they're getting the driveway rebricked, they might as well get the front wall rebricked at the same time. Big chipper and 40 yard RORO on the road. Cones. Fell. Work fast. Gone before the council arrive to fix the pavement. One man. Half day. 500,000 drachmas.

Returned to remove the last bit of the stem this afternoon.

Removed the knotty top piece then took a 2M and 3M length off however once the 3 was down to re-strop ( it was too long to lift over the box) the crane couldn't lift it so had to knock 500 off the end, which wasn't too bad as it had a bit of rot in it anyway, which brought it just light enough to get it loaded.
