Today we had a small hurricane. How would you handle this job?) Only handmade. For what price would you do such a job?

A gallon of gasoline and a flaming arrow. $6 for the gas and about $6 for a Nice cedar shafted arrow with real feathers for the fletching.

Throw a top rope over from the other side, climb SRT and limb the stems to the top, then buck off 16 inch rounds and on all four stems as you work down. Just roll them off as you cut them, after first covering the windows and siding with plywood.

Inspect from inside the house.
Climb as normal.
Once the trunks are below the top of the roof, anchor 2 climbing lines over the roof, to a tree or something suitable, on the back side of the house, with padding to protect the ropes as needed. Do not tie yourself to the trees.
Slide the pieces of trunk wood down the roof.
At some point the trunks Possibly will want to stand up on their own. The compressed roots may push them upright.
If they continue to lean against the house at the bottom of the roof, winch them upright and fell them away from the house.
Be aware that once the trunks are being cut shorter, even though they are lighter, they may start to push into the roof more, as the weight/ pressure may be pushing differently on the framing of the house. I have encountered this when I got below the top ridge of a roof. Apply support to the trunks with a winch or truck if the trunks want to sink into the roof.
You will need to keep away from the metal roof with your saw. Wedges can make space between the roof and wood. You might make some from wood that are thicker than felling wedges.
You will have some branch stubs stuck into the metal.
As you cut close to the roof with your bar tip, watch for wood saw- chips to change to bark saw- chips/ discharge.

What species is that Deva? Looks like it is splitting as you are working on it. Never a good thing

Had to quit running immediately. Haven’t run in 2 weeks.
The tree work is so taxing during my acclimation period.
Needed to recover fully at night just to handle the next full day…
I’m coming in off the bench.. I was business owner and consulting for a few years…
Now I’m high production removal climber, jungle cutter….
I false crotched that tulip, it’d been like 3 years since I’d hung any wood.
I’m handling but under promising and over delivering…
playing low and slow so I don’t sputter out.
