Lol they both had power lines but yes they were definitely memorable however the 20000 before I had a camera were just as bad lol

Well if had choice crane but owner would not allow on driveway! There really was no where to put a speedline on the pine and so it was cut and lowered! Then chunked out by hand. the other tree took every trick in the book lol Jump cutting Tip tie and lift or actually swing to get clear of lines but not hit the house! That last limb you see me on the dead oak was the only suitable tip and rigging point and it also was too low in height to help really! The other parts of the tree were taller than that limb and most definitely longer!



Btw not meaning to hyjack thread, just meant as entertainment anyway check out schools because if your totally interested in this as a career the training and certifications will help you in the long haul!
