Big elm I got to work in yesterday, cut branches back from the chimney and gutter and drop some large deadwood out. It's just across the road from my house, glorious tree

 

[lxskllr]

Interesting house. Built ~1820?

 

[flushcut]

Just across the road and yet you drove over there!? Terrible. lol

Gorgeous tree too

There is this amazing old technology called a wheel barrel. It makes handling heavy loads over short distances very easy and is incredibly carbon neutral buy it once and have it for decades maybe even pass it down to your grandkids. Exceptionally low maintenance overhead on an annualized basis. Pure genius of a tool! 😉

There is also the human known as husband. All natural and 100% recyclable. Capable of autonomous operation to boot.

 

[flushcut]

Oh no you didn’t!

 

[TINYHULK]

I must have been a defective product cause my ex wife returned me to the “single’s department.” 😂😂😂

 

[flushcut]

Defective!

 

[TINYHULK]

Good thing “we” are recyclable though, will probably be more useful the second time around 😅

 

[flushcut]

Just walk towards the light lol.

Your ex-wife is unlucky, and after a short time she realizes her mistake. However, the train has already left.

Oh no you didn’t!

Mmmm hmmm! 'snap, head roll'...oh yes I did !

They didn't give you a break leaving the cars under the trees.

 

[Marc-Antoine]

It's never pleasant, more nervevracking. A single flying dead bit, a twig catching an other, or a riccocheting stub, and BAM

Giving my Avant a workout. I even switched to the dangle grapple because it's lighter and gives me more lifting capacity. Still couldn't get this piece across the yard to the log pile.

 

[SeanKroll]

I wonder if a chain/ choker without an attachment would have done anything to make it within your capacity.

BAM is unpleasant. A few days ago, a small piece ,,of cheese,, flew towards a residential building and broke the glass in an apartment on the second floor. I was lucky that it was ordinary glass (not double-glazed windows). I had to buy new glass and repair the window.

 

[ruel]

Forks help with big pieces, scooping from down low seems to lift more

@SkwerI
Brian, what kind of tree was that?

 

[Mellow]

Looks like Camphor. Cinnamomum camphora
