"Crane Tree Removal" ACE Tree Management

[SkwerI]

When using a rope to assist in pulling a spar into the lay, I'll tie the knot on the back side and run the rope up over the top of the log. That way when it's on the ground, the knot is on top. I think I learned that from Willie.

How a section lands depends most on the ratio of its length to its height from the ground. I'm talking bare stems, no brush on the sections to change their aerodynamics. with that a given it is all very calculable the lengths you cut and what end hits first.

That was a tall tree. Early on sections were only rotating a little better than 180 before they hit the ground. Cool

His MO is to post/advertize and then skeedaddle.

That's nice. O when i get time between running a business 7 days a week and then dealing with the days work issues that comes up and then after family time, i wish i could read and post more but, with a wife that thinks I'm already totally obsessed with tree work, ha ,what do wifes know lol..could she be right, no way ,its sunday morning now, kids still need to the dressed for sports today,car is running, phone ring, and I'm sitting here writing this post, NO Im not obsessed or skeedaddling just trying to please everyone and that's harder than climbing the biggest baddest tree god can throw at me lol. Happy to post/answer questions in time when free but, family then work comes first before posting,hope you can understand that ,thanks for your time again Tree House.

No offense meant, at all.

Sometimes I wave to my wife when on the computer, we can see each other. She waves back.

Another advantage is the most leverage possible as the line comes over the very top.
If I have a lift available, i usually prefer to just fly back up and shove the log over

Some crazy tall/big wood as usual nice video.

 

[pantheraba]

Just WOW...our big trees pale next to those. The crane cam makes for an interesting view.

I love that man-lift. I operated one with a 45M working height....except that it was built in the 70s! That unit looks a tad newer .

Great video, just downloaded that song too, its a gooder.

 

[CurSedVoyce]

Yowsa! Nice work as always. You, your guys and gear are amazing

 

[Burnham]

Spooked me early on when the pick rode out over the top of the lift platform...

 

[stig]

Splendid video as usual!

Thanks for posting it.

 

[High Scale]

I dig it! Nice editing.

 

[gf beranek]

Nice work as usual, Ace. That wide angled lens makes things look farther away than they really are, But the effect is great.

 

[Marc-Antoine]

Wow !
I'm scared just looking the vid !

 

[top_notch]

WOWZA! Outstanding video. How tall was that tree?

 

[woodworkingboy]

I was emailing with someone at Bailey's and he was telling me that they send a lot of 'Big Shots' to Australia and vicinity.

 

[Porkbrick]

[chris_girard]

Yeah, the crane cam does make for an intersting view.

Awesome work guys!
