  13. Hi all! Is it okay to pollard apple trees this time of year? I have been working on an orchard where some of the trees are completely covered in misltoe, I've been hitting them back to good unions leaving a good framework, is there a chance they will come back? Many thanks
  14. Thanks for all your coments!! Yea I had two wedges and a lump hammer with me in a small tool bag. I felled out a few lumps like this and kept dropping the wedges, pretty annoying!
  15. Here are some pics of a job i did in France back in easter 2010. The Trees were being felled for timber, they had to be climbed and all the brash chucked back into the woodland as there was a lane right below! Did two trees about 120 foot high! took the familiy down for a nice paid holiday!!!
  16. yea to right!! i like to keep all my climbing gear simple saves money as well! used to hav an EKN but failed after two years, nicked one of the many little flappy straps. New ekn £200, Willians £135. there is nothing i cant do in it that i could in the ekn!
  17. Came down to cost why we only had it for timber i think. Yea the Pop breaks off easy with a nice step cut just do a good overlap use the lean to ur advantage etc... u can move yourself out the way when the crane cracks them off, its a bit safer i feel. i took my time when moving as had loads of people watching so no slips on this one. have done many many times before tho lol!
  18. hi, Here are some pic's of a Poplar i took down in Chipping Sodbury near Bristol havn't got any to upload of the tree as a whole sadly, but was a fair size in a tricky location with power lines underneith. It was a day with the rigging gear getting the crown off, then a morning with the crane lifting the timbers. Only got pics of the last few cuts as this was when my wife turned up with the camera Lol!! Was a great job thou and went well! Reason for being felled was due to wet rot fungi in the root, stump was completly hollow, good call for the south glos council tree officers Phil and Simon. Company i work for is Lawrence tree services. Thanks for looking, Merry Xmas!!!!!!
