Thats right, the chain does come off when you tip it on the side, you need to pre-cut with a smaller bar first.

Another dead tree woo! hoo!
This had a nice back drop:

phill ellison · 13th June 2008, 08:37 PM

, would you leave there for the public or do ya take it for yourself.

Eric Frei · 14th June 2008, 12:48 AM

I was thinking the same, why cut up so small? Must be to leave as firewood for all those freezing cold Victorians ... I got a burned today and sweated a lot, I think it was 24C today.

bigdaddy · 14th June 2008, 12:24 PM

JohN Dee · 15th June 2008, 11:30 PM

Mmmmm I love the look of nicely sliced dead wood blocks!

StrictlyPalms · 16th June 2008, 04:22 AM

How old would something that large be? Just curious.

newguy18 · 16th June 2008, 05:06 AM

TrevMcRev · 18th June 2008, 09:09 AM

Safe car - Dangerous tree!

Ace Master · 19th August 2008, 12:10 PM

cheers
Ace

JohN Dee · 25th August 2008, 07:46 PM

Mmmmmm bucket truck! That tree was a biggun! Good stuff Ace

newguy18 · 26th August 2008, 05:14 AM

I'll bet he's thankful for the bucket.

Ace Master · 2nd September 2008, 08:06 PM

Hi all

it's been cold and wet down under, we had a break in the weather just another removal. The bucket truck was too short so I had to climb the last tops. In these photos you can see the earmuffs on my helmet have the 2-way radio set up from Peltor they are very good for communicating to the ground crew especially to the rope handler. Yes, I know I'm not wearing the safety glasses! but my visor doesn't fit into earmuff set up - so bad luck that day!

cheers
Ace

phill ellison · 2nd September 2008, 08:49 PM

phill,
2 days on that tree

, but we had a lot of rain and traffic on the first day.We used the tower to remove as much as we could reach then back again to climb the head and rig out the tops and remove the timber.

cheers
Ace

Eric Frei · 4th September 2008, 06:50 PM

Kimtree,
the butt was left at 25ft tall it didn't have to come right down to ground level,the rest was taken away for fire wood, no milling, it had white ants and fungus all the way along the trunk base.That large peice with the crane was 4.5 ton.

cheers

Drouin Tree Service · 4th September 2008, 11:58 PM
