Default another crane job

here another crane job we did the other week, it was a 38mtr high pine that has to come down after some others came down by storm an did some major damage to some sheds and garages, I manage to get it down in 5 parts as I was allow 7 and a half ton lift, it was a hell of a lot easier than try to lower it all and took no more than two hours on that one

the crane we had was 55ton and the lifting I was allowed was 7 and a half ton, although i stuff up the last cut as it was 9.2 ton (opps ) but lucky he only need to lie it down beside it

Yes we do get some good jobs but that what you see, we get a lot of awkward jobs too. our operation manager is the one who does all the quotings(top man). As for the tight fitting ,yes it was very tight(see photo) . We had to take out the fence for the outriggers as the owners did't mind (" anything to get that tree down"). Yes we did end up working in the dark for the last hour as the crane did not get there till late in the afternoon and i just wanted to get the job done. lucky we didn't have to cut the timber up as the owner cut firewood for a living
