F---- that fence! Bonus points if ya get it to hit the shed...

Dam trees juz as bad as women, always gotta leave us hanging.

hinge it down and away from the little guy under tension and sidepull the **** outta it. From the pic it does not look like ya got any good TIP to work from and screw a crane if ya need a road of plywood for it!

Doug, If you do it..... GET VIDEO!!!!! Just sayin.

This thread is older, so im assuming it has been taken care of by now.

I did one like this a few weeks ago. It was a large maple that was leaning on a 70 foot spruce. It had the spruce bent over pretty far, and was tangled together about 55feet up. I went up and put a 3/4" rope about 50 feet up the spruce and tied it off on my large porta wrap in the pintle on my chip truck. Pulled it tight and parked it. Removed the maple piece by piece until it was all safely on ybe ground. We had to rig all the big parts to prevent damage to a rock wall/garden area below. Then I just let the spruce stand back up on its own. It was the safest way I could control the tension in the spruce.

TreeAce is there room for a crane and a bucket? If there is and you have that available I would take some of the strain on the crane and take the tree apart with the bucket.

I did one like this last year, same scenario lodged pretty hard in another tree spring poled over a shed with no crane or bucket access. I tied into two adjacent trees and methodically pieced it out along with the spring poled tree very carefully. When it was time to make the money cut I just about crapped my pants. Everything went well all though I lost a few years off my life.

I do like the idea of tying it off to the spring poled tree and piecing the rest out, hopefully you have some good tie in spots. Sometimes if you can take all the weight off the spring poled tree back to where it's lodged up it will reduce the kickback if not all the kickback when it comes time to release it.

I never heard back from the guy and I have no idea what became of it. I know I threw a number at him that was probably kinda high and I never heard back. Needless to say, I did not do a follow up call. lol
