Thanks man, that was the plan and intent. I doubt I will ever do a more complex job in my career.

Bump, Stopped by the lady's place and took some after pictures. Just waiting on winter grass and it will look pretty again this year. I had her hold back some final funds for me to cable and bolt that one oak I smacked good. All fixed. But she disappeared for a bit with health issues. I saw...

I may have over loaded the server :lol:

Those ended up removed by two different contractors after and during the time we were there. The last crew told the lady we worked for to leave her house in case something went wrong on one large one they felled. I guess it landed right behind the cedars at the back of the house, less than 20...

So that is pretty much a wrap. All the select pictures are here. I might take a few more when I go back in decent weather to get that cable in the damaged tree. Just some shots of the final product. Nuttin spectacular. Thanks for all the participation in this thread and your patience with the...

Rob would mill about two of those logs a day. Then the people that wanted the lumber would show up end of day or first thing AM. We took some 19 footers home (2X8 s) for the rafters on my shop. Remember, I have yet to finish stone henge ;) A lot of good wood came off this job 8)

The saw chips/dust was flying Scott. More of the mill, logs and clean up. Rob did not mill the logs all the way to the ground. There was some considerable waste on the slabs. Pretty ones though. But all we were doing was making the wood Manageable. So the slabs were taken for firewood or...

Two other hobby mils took whole logs. That flat bed trailer belongs to the ex op. His son has a mill.

Well ok then :lol: Some final photos... I just got the card back Sunday from the Tree Mortality Counsel The milling and transport of wood was damn near the third of this job, Not to mention clean up. Basically, the wood is pretty worthless unless permitted and even then. The price of...

Thanks Brian! You seem to do a lot of residential logging up there. Cup of coffee and some brain picking at a kitchen table would be fun some time. Or playing on one of your job sites. :D

We have 20" on them now with 3/8 .050. Plenty of torque. I am going to muffler mod one and see what I get out of it. Should do great. They have plenty of torque and feel pretty much like a 460 husky. Just need to speed up the chain a tad. Fact is, they look like Echo took the older 460/455 husky...

I have not looked up the 3/4 wrap handle and bigger dogs yet..... hmmmmmm The squirrel retained his/her home. It was only a spectator....lol

I have two now. They both did quite a bit of work there. Fact is... all the saws were rather busy... Except the 200T... Needs an oiler right into the first week... :lol:

Don't know about all that... you should see the bloopers :lol: Just kidding. Thanks man. I'll take that as a high compliment. I still feel they are a league above me. Thanks B :) You still are one of the people I have learned from here and I have to give credit to my teachers here. I will post...

Ian. Never be afraid to ask questions or suggest something. We all learn from each other here. If not for some of the advise of others here, I could have never taken on a job of this size or be the tree man I am today... Ask Burnam or Gerry or ...... :lol:

Yup.... lost sleep to this one a bit. Especially right before the deposit hit. Just dead tired when done.

Thanks Scott.. Seriously... we need to get together and have some fun soon. Last bit of video I think of the trees .... This was the General chunking and fell. from my perspective. For some reason the cam was not always kicking in. Battery probably. Only caught a couple chunks coming off...

It was more or less bridging the field... Log was lying perpendicular to the field coming off a rise. The bed of chips added some protection. Ground was hardy disturbed, no visible trough made by the log impact. I was worried to a point but felt I could risk it with an accurate fell and the...
