Removal of a lightning strike redwood in a suburban neighborhood. Do not copy these techniques without a full understanding of when, why, and how to deliberately execute them. This video is meant to highlight this project for my library of work and to show the value of the "Stein Arbor Trolley," engineered by, Reg Coates. The details of the job are not elaborated enough in this short video to warrant viewing it as "instructional." Not every tree is safe to climb. Not every tree is safe to rig from. DON'T GO THERE without deliberate intent and a full understanding of all safety concerns. Also, slant cutting, (salami cuts) and deep notch face cutting, especially of big wood, are dangerous and can be fatal without a thorough understanding of the dynamics and details of how, when and why to employ them. Additionally, there are other ways to get these jobs done that are less frowned upon by certain rule writers.
