Beech removal

I think its details like this that keep the job interesting, when you have to consider al eventualities. I'd have hated to have had a stray piece of wood go flying, simply cos thats the way its always done. Of course there is nothing to say that that would have happened anyway, maybe it was just my over-fertile mind!!

i did the same type of thing a couple of years ago and decided not to risk bits of wood flying and hitting the new house but the ground was soft so mud and chunks of turf splattered the new house and windows had to fetch 2 hosepipes scrubbing brushes and get the window cleaner back that had only cleaned them 2 hrs ago

sod it was the word od that day

 

I wonder if a couple of lorry tyre would have been the order of the day?

 

Andy I never saw the bit about timber flying up, and I see the logic behind that.

Hmm, maybe an idea for the future Lee. Never say never, eh. Or FOAM hee-hee! I think this job can always be a learning curve, and easy to look back with hindsight and say I wish I'd done this or that. On the whole, and most importantly, the job went exactly to plan, on time each day, and I made a little out of it.

One other point I'd like to make, I've seen Tim climb on basic deadwooding jobs, but didnt really know his other abilities in the tree, and he didnt know mine as a groundie. Itsd always a pleasure to work with people such as Steve and Tim, because you feel comfortable with their abilities, neither bullshit about their skills, just get on and do it!!
