Hi quintrex,

we did the same thing on this tree but it was leaning on a 45 degree angle and the only thing to secure it too was a pretty rotten neighbouring obliqua.

the spilt seemed to go all the way to ground level and most of the way through the trunk, i suppose it make it much safer securing the split but if it fails at ground level it was a long way to fall and pretty much impossible to swing out the way.

I think my hubby really should have walked in this case and luck really needs to be on your side sometimes.

If you do trees like this do you get the customer to sign something saying you ca'nt take responsibility for property damage?
