How high up in a 120 foot Douglas Fir would you set the tie off point...?DeezerShoove » Today, 9:48 pm » wrote: ↑ Any time you have to feather a clutch you're cooking it.
I use arborist ropes for that type of ****.
The specs on one of my ropes is (going by memory) 15% stretch at 50% load.
That way you just pull the **** tight as you can and keep working on the stump or tree.
I'm pretty successful at the stuff. Dropping 100 foot trees between houses and fences.
Not damaging transmissions. All that ****. When I hear people paying $2000 to remove a tree, I cringe.
Gotta watch out for trees rolling off each other's canopy. That can be a fooler.
The closest tie off point at the other end of the rope is a similar sized tree 200 feet away.
For extra power and stability another pull rope could be sent to another tree
I don't think one of those trees could be pulled over..it rarely happens naturally with them during storms.
Looks like I'd need 400 feet of rope at whatever that would cost per foot.
