Tall spruce? Need some advice.

[fir]

Just got back from taking down the tree. Sorry my skill level is not to your standards, but I did have an idea how to get this down safely. And it is down, all went well. My neighbor is very happy now that that tree will not be there to scare him every time a storm rolls through. I do not operate a tree service at this time, just doing removals for people I know. Insurance? According to my insurance guy I am ok, just do not do too many. Kind of a gray area, I know. May not be able to tell from the pics, but there was quite a bit of space to top it. Decided to take about 20' of top, using a rope to keep control. Figured at 20', if wind changed or I screwed up, 20' would not reach anything. Will post some pics later, would like more input for next time.

Its down safely that is all that maters good work.

Steve you did ok, but dont leave all those branches on, cut em as you go up, leave a stub every so often for your landyard.

Make sure and get insurance, I wouldnt even think about not having it, things can happen....

OK Dopey, unless you can contribute without lashing out at members you dont know, you should shut up or report me! You dont know my type. It is dudes like you that want an ego so you start crap. Seen it, your doing it. Tread lightly. Trolls dont last long here!
