Wotcha think? Useful? Tell you stuff that you already knew/could have worked out? Hmmmmm?

Nothing beats experience.

 

We did an Ash tree this week in which I set a lowering pulley up to share the load between two branches, because it was a previously severly topped tree and could rely on one good lowering point. Near the end I decided to put the lowering pulley in on one of the branches (4") to see what it would take and see if it would fail.

 

I was absolutely sure the lump we sent off would fail the branch, we even tried to shock it a little mid lower.

 

Opened my eyes a little, it nice to experiment a little, similar to the destructive tackle tests we have seen on here, sometimes things don't do what you would expect them to do.
