easy spotted gum removal december of 2015.
Hot day reached 39.9 degrees C - big saws ended up stopping due to the heat.
watch in HD
cheers Ben.

Man I love how the wood on those trees hinges. Just looks like a dream to be able to take big long branches all the time.

Funny thing about removals on hot days. The most miserable part is after you chopped away all your shade! Good stuff Ben

Nice work Ben. I am very jealous of the heat believe it or not, it's been a cold one here.

Nice tunes and camera angles nice and cruisy mate!

Hey Cobber, yeah they do hinge nicely and if you get the weight distribution guessed correctly the limb will do some good stuff when it comes to playing with the physics.
and did we miss the shade after decking it out on that job wow it quickly became apparent the actual temperature on that afternoon sheesh what a stinker.

Naw I believe it alright, the news is telling us over here anyways that the arctic has decided to descended into the midwest for a spell.
problem I have is no real conception on that level of cold so it just looks 'pretty' on the screen.

yeah that was a breeze of a removal realistically , had some fun and got paid

Some blokes doing a good job of cutting a tree down. No drama or BS. Nice work mate.

Seems like a shame that a nice tree like that had to be removed
:-( . Why did it? Regardless, nice work as usual Ben!

yeah I agree twas a nice tree, most maccy's shape up well naturally and this did have a overall good frame with plenty of points to prune back to but was in a high traffic area in a private primary school and the resistograph tests conducted showed some areas of concern so the school board opted to do a complete removal to avoid any liability risk in the future.
thankyou Reed appreciate the question as it was a healthy tree otherwise.

 

[Worthaug]

Well, at least there was good evidence and argument... enough to warrant the action. Cheers my friend, good work!

Nice Ben. I am wishing for some hot weather. Think it might be time to get some fingerless gloves and head down south.... way south.
