I too don't see how you guys managed to score $7500 for those trees. Was the backyard access so bad that it would have taken two days to get the brush out? I doubt it. The limbs weren't large or complex like some mature firs, or previously topped ones.

How about speed lining the brush over the house? It's hard to tell, but it doesn't look as if that would have worked....

Brushing them out first would have meant a smaller crane could have been used, and would have only been needed for 2 hours, or 3 max.

As far as the use of those deep shelf cuts, they didn't need to be used on all the cuts.... That said, folks need to realize that many of those sections were quite short and were brush heavy on one side, so they would tend to come off at an angle, which can present a risk to the climber. In such cases, one cut straight through will cause problems.
