This might sound like a stupid question, but I was watching some of Ekka's old vids and it got me thinking.
Considering a 2 man crew...climber/groundmans.
From your experience, is it easier for the climber to bomb everything down onto the ground (everything but the spar), and come down and help cleanup. Or have you found it easier to chip as ya go.
I hate having the chipper run all day. My current method is to have groundy chip in spurts, but he gets pissy having to stage the brush and work around it (he's family :roll: ). It seems I spend a lot of time sitting in the tree waiting...burns a lot of time, and seems hard on the body.
I'm thinking of trying the bombing out everything method. 2 people moving brush and with the mini the tangles would be easy to clean up.
What have you found the best.?
