It was a 750t mobile, ridiculous machine. When it's collapsed it can go 80kmh on the highway!

Oh yeah. I have very little experience with these types of situations and how the wood responds to the damage. Was struck just a day or two ago. Have no idea what I'm in for and with. 17t crane no less. Looks like a long stressful Monday.

He said 360 degree crane access is perfect.
Stay safe!

Hopefully you can get nice and close with a 17 ton, or u might be in for a long day. Lightning struck is different every time, just play it safe and evaluate as u go. No prob for u man

Easy Peasy today. Video to come. Main trunk had 4 large cracks in it from the Lightning damage. Held together well and had no problems with a tie in. Done and on the ground by lunch.

Devon. I need to immigrate to Canada. You've got quite the client base.

No, no, no! If the homeowner hired some fly-by-night tree hack to get it down, and their cheapo guy quit halfway thru, then they're stuck with it! "We don't risk our lives to clean up other people's disasters!" Next time, tell them to hire the professionals at Sugarbush first, get it done correctly, and leave Mr. Beaver sitting in his lodge!
Never had to deal with a still standing beaver tree before. Be safe!
