Set your climb line high in the tree, attach your porta-wrap to the base of tree, climb up, set your block, run rigging rope through PW and block, make sure groundi is squared away, make face cut on limb, attach rigging rope to limb and a control line if needed, make sure groundi is ready again and control line man as well if needed, make back cut and watch as groundi lowers limb to ground, tell groundi to untie rigging rope from limb(and put a slip knot in it so it doesn't run through the block), tell groundi to drag limb, recover block, climb to next limb and repeat.
No crane needed, and you'll probably have most of it done in the time it would take to set up a crane.
Oh and never use butter on your climbing gear.

Hey Clueless,,,, there is ANSI,,
To the OP,, the best way to tie in on a crane is the right way.
This has been discussed to death.

3/4" climbing line???
if so, why?
is he bidding on a crane job but not leaving enough margin to afford a correct rope for $120?
