I was surprised however how small some of the chunks looked.
Awesome stuff.
I was surprised however how small some of the chunks looked. What was the weight factor you were dealing with?
There's not a lot of time to mess about
you got it mate from the sunny bay of plentyYes electrical tape and my favorite slicing tape is one of the handiest things to carry in the tool box.
Excellent video climbernz...... is nz for New Zealand? Thought I could pick a bit up in your vocabulary.
The wood was weighing in around 900 kgs for those cuts . I think the smallest was 750. It had been raining heavily the days before so we think that's the reason for it being so heavy . The weight the pilot wanted was 900 and we had a couple over 1 tonne. In the second cut you can see how the pilot couldn't lift it away fast because of the weight, I think it was 1200kgs.
interesting theory , it could be true the rope between the heli and the strop was quite long and those branches were extremely heavy.Seems like the more branches, the more the rotor would push the load down, "increasing" the load.
