Tip-tieing

[RegC]

Septic field underneath, so, low impact.

Nice rigging! Do you guy the the support tree?

 

[Mick!]

Very nicely done.


Always impresses the clients (apart from being a useful technique of course)

 

[MasterBlaster]

Lay it down, nice and smooth!

 

[CurSedVoyce]

Nicely done Reg. Always beat a sigh of relief when you have the top bust out, and where you tied the rigging holds. Not to mention just being ready and not get bonked on the noggin.

We weren't dragging it too far from the spar tree, so no I didn't think it necessary

Amazing work, Reg. Thanks for taking the time and trouble to shoot it, and then to share it.

 

[SeanKroll]

Another fine show

Great f'g vid and music.

 

[gf beranek]

Nice to watch, Reg. Thank you!

 

[Burnham]

Nicely done, Reg. Once again watching your vids takes me back to my working days, and really makes me smile. You work in so similar an ecotype to what I did, and we use so many of the same techniques...thanks for the memories .

Right on.

Nice smooth work Reg. I love the ability to pretension rigging lines. For me it was a game changer.

Loved that vid, Reg!

I'm subscribed to you on the YouTube machine, so I saw it there first. Thanks for sharing here at TH too!

Loved doing similar when I worked with a chipper winch, something pretty beautiful about floating whole trees/logs right into the chute

 

[MasterBlaster]

Heck yea! It's awesome!

Beautiful work as usual Mr. Reg! Tip-tieing whole trees is an indispensable, time saving tool that we frequently use around here.

I love it too, but I don't use it often.
Guessing the tree's weight is the tricky part. It's easy to overweight the rigging gear (and the tying point) when it begins to take a serious angle during the lowering, even if it's safe initially.
Luckily, there's a safety margin on the gear. I surely shewed some of it once or two...

 

[pantheraba]

hahaha...you say you got that gear's attention?

 

[FireFighterZero]

Really enjoyed that.


Music too.

Smooth. Nice rigging.
