  3. Cheers everyone! The reason it was felled is because they were gonna put a birdhouse on top of it Song: Wait -m83(kygo remix) gotta love m83, they really make some amazing music!
  4. Since i'll probably will keep putting up videos might as well just make one thread. [ame] [/ame] This one is of the removal of 2 norwegian spruces in Holland
  5. [ame] [/ame] Took down a birch with the new stihl 201, and wow it has so much more power than it's predecessor aspecially on bigger pieces Enjoy
  6. [ame] [/ame] Tried to improve my hiab crane skills since last time..... less dynamic, more smoother. i had a lot more communication with the operator this time telling him exactly what to do and how much pressure to put on the strop. i know it's not perfect hope you enjoy Pascal
  7. 7 meters or 22.9 inches for the brits
  8. Thanks for the response matt! this is one of the reasons i post these vids on here there are a lot of skilled arborists on this forum who allways have a idea of doing things, not all of them are right but they are allways worth listening to! in this case you are right:001_tt2: the problem was indeed the reach i couldn't get the crane directly underneath the timber in most cases. If i did i would've just used step-cuts all the time. another problem was that the operator put way to much pressure on the strop. after the first cut i asked him to put less pressure onto the strop and then the second cut went a lot better(0:48) but sadly at one of the last pieces (3:06) he seemed to have forgotten to not put to much pressure onto the piece
  9. Cheers jon, they told me it can have about a ton at full reach
  10. You know, in the bottom bar of each youtube video, there is a little button that allows you to mute the video
  11. not being rude or anything, but what did i do wrong precicely and in the case what would you have suggested to do instead?
  12. Thank you, i assume by crane cuts you mean step cuts? if that's the case it is because the crane couldn't get directly underneath the stick because it was too short that is why i felled them and then cut the hinge. i have to admid i wished the operator wouldn't put so much tension on the strop when i was cutting the hinge
  13. "If you can do it with hydraulic pressure you shouldn't do it with blood pressure"
  14. First timer working with a unimog. Nice bit of equipment, takes a lot of work out of your hands
  15. [ame] [/ame] Took down this Ash a couple of months ago in england, pretty interesting job since where i come from (Holland) we have all the BT/electricity below ground. Enjoy
  16. Saw a climber use it ones, looks compacter than a ropewrench. like to try one as well! Yeah you can attach the end karabiners together and make a loop out of it, after that it's not as bulky
  17. Thank you, just thought you needed it for insurance ect....
  18. My SAKA came in this week, got a nice elastic neck-lanyard with it as well. looks and feels very well-build and easy to adjust/replace. I'm gonna use it DRT right now, just waiting for the hitch-hiker to become CE certified
  19. please, just call me pascal we used a 660 on the butt
  20. it was in harderwijk the netherlands, a really nice old estate
  21. catching up: @mendiplogs Thank you jon @Rob D Thanks, i tried to make te branches float perfectly vertical @fen01 Thanks, sorry bout that @silkyfox Dankjewel @MattyF Sure thing, The reason it was removed was because of a rapport focusing on the roots saying there was a fungus in there, first tree really had to go second one we thought it could've stand there for at least 10+ years but the counsil insisted @tree-fancier123 haha oh god no, can you imagine. we didn't even have to get rid of the timber and branches @mistahbenn thank you, the reason is that there is a giant crane that can get me into position @Mark Bolam Thank you, well what else are you suppose to do with a 100 ton crane... @Arctostaphylos uva-ursi it did, and no we didn't but i recon looking at how much line i had left i think about 28 meters @Mortimer Firewood Thank you very much, sure is nice saving my body for retirement. That sound like fun and dangerous at the same time @RC0 Thank you
  22. [ame] [/ame] fun job to do, the last bit of standing trunk weight over 10000 kilograms
  23. nope my groundy wasn't really motivated that day.... no, no silky kiss in this video, i think.....
