Trees you've cut

[fearofpavement]

Cherry, mostly rotten for 30' of trunk. Windy day, power/cable lines about 2' from trunk, leaning towards house, fence and AC unit...

Hate em when they're covered in ivy like that.

And you're climbing up it thinking that your weight on the tree might be just enough to snap that sucker off. Then you get a few hundred pounds of branches off it and start breathing easier... Or is that just me?

I don't often get a chance to take pictures or video of what I'm doing. Kinda bums me out actually!

The 7' 6" stump our city loader hauled to our tree dump for me.

The ones in the trailer I just lay brush branches etc. notch and dump them over directly in the trailer.

I've been know to dump whole trees into the trailer if close enough to our small town dump. Time saver for sure.

Time is money lol

Couple pics of a poplar I took down recently got to play with a little 142 i ported and also broke out my Mike Lee 390

 

[JT78]

This one was a big hickory that got blown over by straight line winds last year it was about 3ft on the stump took time to cut most of it was under pressure and top was tied up in some other trees.

This one was a huge oak that blew over at my dad's we used a couple old 041 I rebuilt and my 395 with a 42 on it. this one was about 5 ft at the stump

Yup that ivy is some slick stuff, although in this case it may have been some extra support for the tree!! Makes you wonder how it stayed up with leaves catching the wind before winter, I know it didn't rot THAT much over the winter...

This was from two years ago...not nearly as big as some of the monsters y'all get to tangle with, but the biggest I have taken so far. Oak, at a solar array clearing job I worked for a friend. That's a 20" bar, plus roughly 14" of saw...back before CAD took over. I can say without a doubt I was testing the limits of that $180 Poulan, but it never skipped a beat.

I did some stumping with my free 066 (just a muff mod and removed the limiters). Pulls a 36" like a freight train.

That was dead, hard, Chestnut Oak.
