| I like using some of our 16mm polypropelene for quick tied topping strops on palms... Cheap and effective. ![]() Thanks for taking the pic for me Ace. ![]()

| Yeah it is and I agree, but it is alot more risky/dangerous when you're working in a confined area like the the picture I put up... Had near rotten wooden fence one side, house on the other and there were like 7 kids running around uncontrollably - popping their heads around the corner to take a look (they finally settled once they found their seat on the roof of their house watching me... lol) ![]()

| Some more pic's of the stumpers. Plus look at the Mt Ash Gum tree in the background, took some close up pic's it's right beside the house. HOW BIG DO YOU THINK THIS TREE IS BEFORE LOOKING AT THE CLOSE-UPS PIC"S. ![]()

| I would say your going to get a call about that gum when it drops a limb or two after the right wind, I,m only guessing but I would say that those Cypress would have protected it from the wind on one side, and therefore the limbs on that side do not have the strength (0r stucture) to deal with wind. more work I suppose |

| How long do you reckon it would take to bring that monster gummy down? Must have 100' spread at least on it beside the multiple leaders.
