  • Day 1 of a massive Mountain Ash (Eucalyptus Regnans) removal in the Dandenong Ranges.
    This tree was removed because a tree of similar size growing very close to this tree fell over exposing the roots and making it dangerous, you can see the fallen tree in the video. Thanks to the crew especially Kev price who was a legend on the rigging ropes

    Proud to say this guy is my friend.
    We started out together when we were 17, he chose arbor, I chose paving.
    Great to see him doing so well, he deserves all the success and praise hes getting. Such a genuine lad.
    All the best Dave 🤟

      @@yawningdog9894 I learned that term from my friends who works at cruises. Maybe what I really wanted to say was nauseous, dizzy, as if I'm going to go out of balance. Like for example, inside a building when I look at the streets from say 15th floor, I can't look at it long enough that if I do, I'll get a little dizzy, maybe scared and then a tingling pain in both of my ankles but goes away quickly once I stop looking at it.

    Great Job / fun job - I wish I had a job like that lined up! My only thought was rigging the top and logs down after having skinned the tree must have added super flex to the stem. I might have tried to leave some shock absorbing branches outside of my drop zone to dampen the flex factor on a tree that big. However you did it just fine and must have felt safe - any thoughts tho.? I have found it to really help while rigging big pine.
