A couple from today, 1.5m reduction on this TPO'd beech after someone topped it out..... A reduction to give more light into the house on the oak and felling 2 trees.
-
Deceptively big stem from the first picture.
-
So we completed the last section on this side of the road today. Only around 5 ton of timber on this bit.
-
Another companies. Very good but I still prefer my 1928 greenmech
-
Started a few weekends worth of highways works. Quite nice being contracted in to supply the skid steer, workforce and other pieces of machinery.
-
He's a bloomin nice guy too. Met him a few times at shows. Normally carrying a jug of cider.
-
Fat old stem on that!
-
A few from today.
-
I still think it was a lot better than a hitch IMO. But I guess most of us at the time were looking to push the wrench setups to its new boundaries.
-
I used that setup for a good deal of time. It's great. The lock jack is tested on a single line so.... Plus me and dan did a load of drop tests with one and it survived everything.
-
Yeah because it might be winter when we go back
-
Yeah I said if we haven't access and were not allowed to set a crane their. It's the full price and I'll walk away. So the crane is an additional cost to the client.
-
Too many lawn relays Adam.
-
Basically because we now have no extraction route. It's a crane job. I'm just waiting for the date.
-
So after having to cancel the remainder of the beech removal because of a neighbour changing his mind and not letting us use his garden to lower into. We decided to extract some time from a transfer yard were closing down.

Did the root plates fall back or stay up
-
Started this medium sized beech today. Adam Bourne showing why he's such a good climber today. He was also very good with the apprentice as we thought he needed to learn the rigging ropes.
-
Indian bean tree which may be regularly pollarded so the leafs oversized?
-
That's a pretty cool looking tree. Just crazy natural art.
-
A couple of recents Thats what a pigeon escaping a sparrow hawk can do to to double glazing.
-
Sounds good but I'd always go for a bollard if money permits. Maybe a swing cheek rigging pulley too. So you can rig off centre if required.
-
It's lift capacity isn't great but for shifting brash to the chipper its king.
-
Getting this finished off. It's taken a while to modify it but I'm happy with the results.
-
Conny bashing recently. Just the stumps tomorrow.
