its according how big the branch is if its 3 -4 inches thick probably especially if it has a point on it

Branch has to be at least four or five inches thick. Coolaroo fabric is pretty tough stuff. You'll see.

I just sent an answer to your question. This is probable not strong enough to use on a tree. I ordered the systemic Bayer product that was specifically for trees and shrubs.

I have not done this, but in principle yes. But you need to drill holes deep into tree to ensure systemic delivery. But I would suggest just cutting it down. A big dead tree is a dangerous tree.

Depends,at full extension out would break in half if poked in to the ground during your wipe out. If you threw it to the side and it didn't hit a tree out anything it should be okay. We use it for jet pack testing and it has held up pretty good

I would think it would be fine. I have chipped ever-green branches that were wet without issue. I would run some dry stuff thru it every now and again to sort'a clear it out.

not sure...haven't tried branchs. Just cut some rope and cardboard boxes. Did fine with those.

It will apply to branches but I am not sure how effective it will be. I used it for the top of my block wall to keep the elementary kids from climbing over the wall and getting hurt on their way to and from school.

You definitely could use it on a tree branch if it a really sturdy one. We've hung it from different things outside, but we always make sure it can hold the baby's weight. Our grandson loves it. We love it because it keeps him happy.

It's pretty heavy-duty. I think it could easily handle a branch one inch thick, and twigs would just slide off. Using bunjies and hooks into the sides of the building, trees, wooden fences, etc., it is helpful to make it as taut as possible.

My rope broke the first week I had it. I would go to a fabric store and try to find something similar to it and staple it to the tree.Its just an Idea.

You also might want to add a turnbuckle to the mix, so you can maintain constant tension on the cable.. Of course, you also might pull your tree down. :)

I don't think so. You would have to drill two holes through the limb and probably would destroy the tree. Why not use a chain that has been wrapped to be smooth? I remember my Dad used to bring a chain that had a big ring on the end of it when we went on picnics. He'd throw the ring end over the branch and pull the rest of the chain thru it. Then you could add hooks to it to support the swing.

Personally, I would no as it may weaken the tree branch. Most if the tree swings I have seen have rope handles and something to protect the tree as it wraps around. Also, these are machine screws, not intended to drive into wood.

IMO def will not, maybe 15-30 min of hard use but it will be slow slow cutting....MAYBE.then it will slow down to the point you just want to smash it on the ground. this product is good if you need to buzz around a fence, or tree. very light duty stuff.

I'm not sure I can help you because I did not glue mine down. But I can tell you this. It is very dense, ( not too thick, ) and STRONG..We needed to trim it to fit our small garage and it was vey difficult to cut. I doubt it would tear .I'm sure it would be terrific glued down.

Yes. It is made very poorly and it broke on the first day. It does work to protect from leaves falling in, but you need to re-inforce the ends before assembling it. I am planning on using a LOT of ductape this summer to reinforce the ends before assembling it again. If it rains, it will sucumb to the water weight and turn inside out. It wasn't that grat of a buy but I really only wanted to keep the leaves out and it does work for that.

I used mine to take down lilacs. They have very hard wood. It takes awhile to get through, but some of the branches at the bottom were 3". If I were to do it again I would use a sawsall or chain saw.
