2nd August 2018

This is the first ever blog post. Hopefully my posts will be informative, and maybe a little funny. Most of the jokes will be self deprecating.

​

So today we took on some outsiders, Rough old Hemlock. With one in particular that really was a beast. Situated at the top of a near vertical 35m bank. Sod pulling the winch rope up there. With power lines behind and also stuck against Deer fencing. 

​

Perfect opportunity for the Treemans 20T to show its colours. But alas one 20T wasn't enough. It required two. I did the rear cut before the wedge in the front other wise it was going to sit back harder than a fat kid on a sofa when Game of Thrones is starting. We got both jacks pumped right up. So much so, it started to go before I wedged it in. Short while later it was ready to go. After about What seemed a million pumps the tree was finally upright. Hydraulic Jack assissed felling certainly beats beating wedges in for hours.

Today we've been working on a new ball joint idea to sit the top plate on. Hopefully we will have some pictures to show soon.
