Holy crap, look at the diameter of that lowering line... Is that polypropelene? What breaking strain does it have?

Yes it's 64mm polypropelene, the breaking strain is around 16+ton
We only use it for the really big rigging jobs and that was one, i took some pics of the rope for you.

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)

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

Sometimes I wonder to myself, how the hell can our customers afford to have tree work done?

Nice work Ace, MASSIVE stumps - good looking machines - great work.

P.S Lol, I'm loving the great looking trailor on the outside then rusty on the inside

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.
