I have heard that the resins harden like glass after lightning stike and they get way harder to cut. Like, keep a bunch of extra chains for that day level hard.

Aleppo pine does that drying in the desert. Make you keep stopping to check your chain because it feels like you hit something and rounded the cutters off. Chain has to be sharp and a little aggressive to bite but not too much or will grab. The window gets very narrow.

61” oak, biggest we’ve done in a while. I got to hang out with the crew all day too (I do sales when I’m not consulting for municipal work now so I’m rarely on production any more, been like this since April and I miss it so it was a blast even though it was 95° out)

Hey, nice crane! We use the same model a couple days a week. It's a great size for trees.

Bet that crazy top was “fun”.

Pretty much!

We had a customer years ago build a glass sunroom and install a new shed under the tree we were supposed to remove in his back yard. All the construction happened between our quoting the job and our crew doing it. Poor crew thought the estimator was crazy when they arrived and saw the tree, which was written up to be felled and cleaned up in two hours.

This would work aloft, too, but I'd normally done from the ground.

Thanks for the response.
I've done that, just not retrieved it as the tree was coming down and it was only to set a running bowling.
I thought I might need to do that utilizing a tree that I needed to drop first, in order to get another that had a huge bow in it over a barn, ended up there was a bunch of branches that worked great.
Unfortunately I got my throw bag stuck in two trees that day, kinda frustrating, but I'm sure you have it way worse with the height of the trees out there. I always have plenty of spares and grabbed my old trusty dried out as heck line and bag, hit it first shot. It was an easy shot, that's what made it even more frustrating, stupid little branch crotch caught it...
Tree I was going to use to help set my bull rope.
1st one behind it.
Second one.
Did this one after the two smaller ones, it's the larger one to the left in the videos when looking from the tractor. 28" on the 462 with smaller dogs didn't quite reach.
