Lets get this party started...

I just have em attach a pulley to a tree, and pull it tight. Maybe, take a wrap when needed.

KISS

:angel:

nice, how about when you are taking the trunk down, speedlining it over a fence or something, and when you cut, the log has to drop down because of the slack?

 

[MasterBlaster]

I've never had to do that, Chad. If I can't bomb small chunks into a LZ, I'll rope the chunks down.

But if I did hafta SL a log, then I would rig the pulleys and get the line super tight.

All's I've ever done is SL limbs.

For the most part line clearance is lame work with the buckets, ladders and polesaws but it is nice to get a climb in once and a while. There was two of us in this tree and we took twice as long to do the trim because we were having a good time. Had a nice wind to raise the fun factor too.

Here's one of two nice oaks I got to work on yesterday, and today.

I love my Big Shot!

 

[glens]

I didn't realize they were that powerful.

I had to work at it a bit the other day, but Tree Machine will attest I can get a throwbag quite high in a tree all by my lonesome (nominally 80').  But I can't throw one hard enough to knock a tree down...

[Gord]

glen ya gotta start posting pics!! or does that linux box not like that sort of thing?

 

[MasterBlaster]

Yah!

 

[glens]

The box does right fine with pics.  It's getting them on it in the first place that's hard since I don't have a digital camera.  Maybe if I start being real good real soon I'll get one for Christmas...
