This pine was much faster to climb and bomb out the branches and then rig out 14' logs with the crane. The drop-zone was nice and easy to hit as it was the customers driveway. It always goes quicker when there is a crane to help
No he had some little kids at home that needs fed. Some people will do what it takes to feed them these day. But then there is the ones that would let Uncle Sam do it
Great job! Made me queasy watching this. Never had that problem in my youth but as you get older and lose that fearlessness things change. 😂 My first house i found a set of spikes and harness and climbed tree's in my yard and repelled down them for fun. My neighbors thought I was nuts. I can't do it today. Once I get above 20' weird things happen in my brain 😂 Great reminder too how much you can do with a short bar. Nobody needs a king kong saw. Props to the crane operator. Nice work all around
This was a demonstration of skill and precision work done as a team. It was a joy to watch how quickly you all accomplished the job of take my down these trees. CONGRATULATIONS! God bless you all and keep you safe. Dennis K.
Love these videos. Must admit though that I was nervous the entire time seeing that rope with as frayed as it is. That thing looks like its shelf life has been stretched to its limits.
I'm glad you enjoyed. The frayed rope is simply a rope cover on a steel core. It has since been replaced at the time that this tree was cut down I was waiting on the placement to arrive.
@@ReallyTallTreeGuy Keep the awesome videos coming bro. Stuff like this is my ASMR. I climb poles for a living, so I know all about gaffing and using safety equipment.
Es impresionante la habilidad, manejo y conocimiento, en general el gran profesionalismo que demuestras, realmente admirable a la vez que fascinante. 👏🏼👏🏼💪🏻💪🏻
I'm a telecomms engineer and work at height almost daily. My question to Arborists is, how do you set you fall arrest line up at the top of the tree? Do you climb the tree and use lanyards as fall restraint until you get to the top, then set the fall line up?
Fascinating stuff! Dumb question. Going up, is the orange rope your only safety or is there some sort of backup I'm not seing? Looks like there is a certain risk you might accidentally cut that rope or a falling branch might rip it.
Awesome. I used to do that years ago and I still remember vividly how much I didn't like it when you cut out the top and sometimes the stub waves back-and-forth. Lordy I hated that. Hats off to a very professional climber.
I love your channel Hey with love from Denmark, i do stump grinding and have a ms660 with a 28" bar on it to cut stumps at ground levelup to 4 feet wide, and it flex to much so sometimes it get stuck and have to pull out my 357xp with 18" bar to help the 660, can you recoment a sav and a bar size, because 660 with the bar and chain is beginning to be a little heavy
Typically when I use a 660. I have a 36 inch bar on it, and I haven't noticed the bar flexing that much. It might be that the bar is just old or you need to file down the burs on each side of it. If the 660 is heavy, then the next best thing I would recommend would be a 500i with either a 28" or a 32" bar on it. I'm glad you're enjoying the videos
Yeah, I should have either made it more clear that I was dropping branches, or looked before I started cutting. Definitely on me, but luckily no one got hurt
