The Sweetheart is due for a rebrick after 10 years of service. Luckily I can still find parts to replace the grate.
I Need a Word
Only half of the work is done having felled a tree, or when nature makes a choice for you as pictured bellow. Then begins the careful process of bringing it all down on the ground. It takes careful reading of limbs, tension points, and interactions, to make safe cuts. I’ve improved this skill over the years and will work through a tree with accurate anticipation of what movement a cut will yield. The delivery of the cut can also make a difference. I’m not aware of a word to describe this process of reading a tree and releasing it fully from suspension.
The heavy root system will pull the trunk back upright suddenly past a certain point.
