Evening slackers and yackers...last but not least the hackers.
Does it take you three hours or more to pic apart and eighty or so foot white pine? Power lines on both sides but not really in the way much. They pull them back. Touched two with the tip. Just the tip
Just curious how slow I am now
Wudeyemiss ...
Yard tree. Right next to everything including the neighbors. First limb....25ft 9" stuff. Tight ring sets.... then it got clustered.Without pics to visualize wut your saying it's hard to say. I'd probably want to take it slow with targets (power lines, house, garage, hot 18 y.o. daughter by the pool). So yeah 3 hours doesn't seem too bad for a little 80' white pine.
The stuff that came out my sinuses today would fill a soda can or three. Nasty business these new cold strains!Evening guys. Cold bug has hit me this time. Sinuses are pounding...

Simma down mister....[emoji36]The stuff that came out my sinuses today would fill a soda can or three. Nasty business these new cold strains!
Roped the other eighty plus...one by one. Is there there another way?....
For pine and spruce I'll rig up a speed line if there are lots of limbs to deal with up top. Even if it's just a speed line to the base of the tree. Rig up ring slings and slide them down 5-10 at a time. If you cut behind the branch collar into the trunk more, that last branch will hinge down slow and pop off once it hits the trunk.
They looked bored. I'm slow...theses two guys are good, real good. Maybe next time.
We did speed lines one day on this really messed up bent over huge pin cherry tree. Rich told them to move the shed the next Monday, I wasn't there, and felled the rest of it that day
Spent two hours doing the double hang overs. Limbs and then was send 300ld chunks down a steep angle....fun stuff riding that mess
Must have brain damage.good evening guy's
That guys a dik.a friend's kid 18 got some work with a old fella
with a tree service.
they left out at 5:00 am with two other guy's.

they got to the job at 6:00 and worked non stop
until 12:00

Stupid human. He's got you trained broThe Chihuahua can only handle five or so minutes of it. He'll stand on his back feet or roll over when his feet get cold, then I have to carry him back to the house... stupid dog.
Sounds like every residential tree job I've ever worked. Pretty rare to get an "easy" tree. But that's what keeps it interesting and fun. Puzzle trees.
Rural line clearance was mind numbingly boring. Same *s-word different hour for 10-12 hours a day.
