ooooohhhh that did not work just did it how i normally do it ?? i'll have another go!

 

not sure what's wrong?

 

anyway stay safe mate, be careful what your holding on to, see a few cringes in there holding on some deadwood?

Yea i only went as far as i was happy with. Double checked each branch before using it. Was mainly standing on something the whole time so not swinging around.

Will be going back next time to get to the very top but with a harness.

Also how do you insert the video here to view it in the forum to make it a bit handier?

Is there any images of the design yet?

Found this little beauty on a university trip yesterday. Anyone else seen it? Also the huge Douglas fir up there are stunning!

Good for small scale, but gets expensive with larger sites. Personally i think i brashed small woodland is beautiful.

I have only ever had two orders with them, PPE and tools. But both came next day delivery as standard. Can't complain but dont know what they are like with returns.

Think that machine was a contractors.

Huskydave where is that, and is that a FS machine ps were is that larch

The one with the forwarder and harvester is somewhere in Scotland when i went on a uni trip. What is a FS machine? The larch is on the whinlatter pass before you get to Whinlatter forest car park. First time seeing winching before.

We were doing abit of management in a private wood in ardglass during the last winds lets just say it saved us alot of hassle getting them down although extraction was difficult

Would say it does, another way of "natural thinning" Yea, would be a very tangled mess no doubt!

Taken over last few years, only a few of them. Enjoy.

The result of the high winds in Northern Ireland last year.
