Hi Jomoco,

Yes we used opposite choked chains.

 

What do you mean with: "A bit too much up on the CO's part though."?

 

Thank you!

 

The way your release cut allowed the entire tree to jump a foot or so off the base, indicates the crane operator preloaded the pick a couple hundred lbs too much!

 

Not bad though for your first go with a crane mate!

Sweet stuff, but I'm struggling to see how a crane was economically viable?

Talk us through it mate.

Bitch of a drag for starters I guess?

Through a house?

Hi Mark,

 

When we made the price there was a shed right under the tree, and no backyard exit. When we came to do the removal, the shed was removed and there was also an backyard exit where the shed first stood. So we had a bit of luck :)

 

Thank you for you interest,

So if the shed was gone and an exit had been created, why on earth use a crane?

How did you get the client to pay for a crane for such a small tree?

What's you're secret? Lol!

Well, the price was made with the crane, for us it was a surprise the shed was gone, because we saw it when we came there to do the job.
