Get Fred D in with a pile of wood and bull horn. More entertaining

He didnt really need the hammer on; it almost fell down on its own

I'd be a bit nervous of it falling over I think.....the machine, not the chimney.

The operator must have damn good eyesight (or binoculars) to see what he's doing at full extension!

We did some repairs to the end part of the boom on one a couple of years ago. Some of the long ones have a camera in a box under the arm about 3m back. A lot have fixed hose jets that are piped up the boom to keep the dust down.
Dead easy to push over i would say...need to be quick to shift the arm out of the way when something starts to fall too.

Men produced more in their sheds and didn't have to tolerate waiting while YouTube loads to give you a 5 second forced preview of an advert before graciously offering the option option to skip to a pop up!

Mist work on the basis as long as he hits the chimney he's doing something right!
