  1. Ha bling bling, ones my work mate phils, handy to be able to borrow it 🖒
  2. Foreshore, any thing that makes the job smooth and efficient gets the 🖒from me
  3. Cheers Silky, was good fun, the senna's make comm's a lot easier 👍
  4. Hi, yeah was quite a complex crown with the pine being multi stemmed. My boss has recently bought senna's and one of the guys on the deck was talking to the driver to pre- tension and guide the sections out. We could also get quick feedback on the weight which was helpfull, made the job a lot smoother. Cheers
  5. Hi, yeah the tree could have been dismantled without a crane. Most off the brash was rigged off by a colleague the day before. But a crane was much more efficeint for the timber, big sections lifted straight into the timber trailer. Rather than rigging smaller section and all the associated mess, wear on rigging and having to move it f4om the ground ect ect . The Pine also had old cable braces, due to badly included unions which had split. The pine was also heaving in recent winds which had been setting of the alarm in the building bellow which was an armoury so negative rigging would not have been ideal. Shame I ran out of battery to film the timber coming off. Cheers
  6. Cheers Steve, we seem to be on a poplar cull In the south West, got some more clips to edit when I get a min 👍
  7. Cheers, between 28-30m to the tips
  8. Cheers Mark 🖒Traversing is a whole lot easier on srt, my boss has the dmm hook, looking forward to having a play on that.
  9. Cheers Ben, yeah it's a nice job, it's on a golf course so just got to keep everything in the copse, loads of nice rigging option. Even had a few free fall dismantles. Looks like space is limited on your recent back yard upload
  10. A few clips from a group of poplars we are dismantling. Good fun in the spring sun.
  11. Hi Paul, i've been waiting to watch this! Great video, nice edit and tunes! looks like a really interesting place to work, really enjoyed that 👍cheers
  12. Yep its the 560, awsome dismantling saw 👍
  13. Cheers, ha yeah no strop equals some intresting new work positioning techniques : ) love the rw/zz easy to swap between drt and srt, looking forward to tryinf the spider jack 3 rw
  14. Cheers Rich, the spec was just to lay it down flat where it fell. Love those jobs 😃
  15. Cheers man, i agree. Was thinking on the day that i would have been able to put in a nice coronet cut and left it as a monolith. (Would have also saves carrying in the 66 ; )But not my spec and they wanted it felled, so we knocked it over ☺
  16. Alright mate, im still on the same tether my boss handed on to me about a year ago now, works great. Ill get a picture of his today as its a bit clearer real nice and simple, worth a go ☺
  17. Thanks Paul. I get what your saying but think there would have been a higher exposure to risk with a straight fell. I wouldnt have wanted to stand under that putting in a cut. It was also onto a bit of a bank i would rathet be anchored above breaking up the crown than dealing with all the tension and compression breaking it up on the ground. Always looks differnt on a video thougj 👍
  18. Big failed included union and further split that was opening and closing in the wind. But not too big a problem with a remote anchor behind and no targets below. Good fun slotting it down with the 560, just a tad difficult to hold position without stropping in. Ta
  19. Hi Ben, cheers will look forward to your footage 👍
