I took down 14 trees today, would have been 1 more but I couldn't get high enough with the lift to get it down safely. It's next to the house, so I'll be climbing it and getting a crane to piece it out. The rest of the trees went good though. Only had 1 get hung up but we got it out. Tomorrow I'll be loading logs and continuing the cleanup. Most of them are ash dead from EAB, one each of oak, cherry, and maple. Lots of BTUs laying on the ground there.
Man, that's a lot of trees, swags Nice to see all those BTU's laying about. That will put you WAY ahead, if you get to keep it? Glad everything went safely. Great 360 video, too
This is a paying job, the lady wants to keep the wood but I don't think she has any idea how much is there. She only burns a little in her house. I'm thinking I'll be getting to keep a good bit of it.
Paying job with free left over wood great. Me always put foot in mouth and end up working for free wood.
"A little tree work" I Didn't see the little tree or the little work ? Nice job! I thought I felt a"little" earthquake when one of them hit thee ground !!! Easy part is done ! You got wood !!
Looks like some good trigger time ...Glad it all pretty much went as plan... But when in doubt, back out and take a second look... Great Job Swags...
Slacker!!! Looks like some good work done indeed! That Fiskars looks like its ready to go a splittin' !
That's a lot of wood. I couldn't rest easy with those trees so close to my house. Good that you got the dead ones down.
Nice work! If I knew 40 years ago how much I enjoyed tree work, I would have a way different life today.
Got the rest down today. Hardest one was today. It's an ash and was a little over 100' tall. Too tall and close to the house and power lines to drop. Got a crane in and rigged the top at 90' in two pieces and cut it off around 60. That was a rush and had some adrenaline going. The crane was awesome and had a great operator. The two tops came out really easy and the trunk laid down perfectly. Being 90' up there was a little scary I have to admit. The home owner got pics and I'll post them when I get them. I was too busy today to take pics but will be back in the morning to chip brush and clean up. Hoping to finish it up tomorrow.
Got the job all finished up. Loaded all the logs in a pile for her and chipped all the brush today. I ended up taking one load of logs home for myself. 4 sections of red oak should be a good bit. Filled my 12' trailer up pretty good.
