Geez la pete?

Something my Midwestern wife says.

I read up...an Ohioan ex- employee, who moved back, would say Geez O Pete

Chased deadwood in the beauty last week. Pics on the side again

 

[Steve Connally]

Friday vibes. LOL

 

[Steve Connally]

does anybody know how to get the pics to load correctly?

Mashed out this elm cluster for my brother

 

[SeanRuel]

I was going to write up my how to- but my first pic loaded sideways too! Seems like it loads images so the long side is horizontal/ in landscape format?

 

[Steve Connally]

It's annoying but I'm gonna post anyway. Transferring from one tree to another to get one piece of deadwood on the tip. Fun stuff. Second pic is backing up a compromised lead to do some weigh reduction in an effort to avoid removing it.

Turn phone 90 degrees counter clockwise before taking photo.

I’m not very techy and it’s a pain but this is what I figured out


Open pic in camera roll

Open edit

Rotate it one way or the other, doesn’t matter.

Save

Open/edit again. Rotate to desired position. Save…again.

Upload

@Matias turned some random guy he met on the internet loose to drop hazard trees threatening a structure….he was right, those grey (digger?) pines sure do hold on well, and one can do some cool swing/redirect trick with them.

They also tend to to be full of included knots, but none ruined our day.



I was able to swing all of them quite a bit off their lean. This one wanted to be right of that small oak and I got it left.

 

[davidwyby]

The cuts and hinges look like a tweaking beaver cut them, but that’s due to the sizwheels, Dutchmen, angled back cuts, tapered hinges, and the fibers holding.

 

[davidwyby]

Crazy how much they hold and how slow they go. I’m used to brittle desert trees.

I was able to weave this one back and forth with the back cut.

 

[Matias]

That was a lot of fun @davidwyby! You're welcome here any time!

Haven't had issues in over a yr and now it's most of the time. If you select the photo and choose "large" size to upload instead of full screen or auto depending on phone it should work.

 

[Steve Connally]

I've been uploading from the MAC. I'll try with the phone and see. Trying to change them on the phone just to get them to upload correctly seems unnecessary..

Really?!?! That far in, and of course on a brand new chain?

 

[southsoundtree]

Root Disease pocket vertical reductions... shorter than the distance to the down-wind buildings.

Nor’easter past couple days caused bit of a ruckus around here
Checked this out today

I heard about that, good luck with all the work coming your way!

Been super busy this last month or so, just exhausted. Plus I keep getting stung by wasps. Got hit three times on Friday (its mid October!!), one of them was on the finger and my hand got so swollen up in a matter of minutes I couldn't even hold things, and had to quit for the day. Never had that happen before....

Saw this beautiful old growth snag on a customers property today, photo really doesn't show it's size but it was a BIG tree.
