I dont think people realise how insanely hard that 880 is to operate. I ran one multiple times, and I’m more then glad it’s gone. Massive hat off to Kevin. He’s fitter then most 30 year olds. Mad!

I absolutely enjoy watching your videos myself having been a climber in the early 1970’s. My down fall (literally) came when I fell 55 feet landing on my feet resulting in a compound fracture of my 2nd, 3rd,and 4th lumbar vertebrae. I spent 2 weeks in the hospital and a year in traction. By Gods grace I could walk though with a limp and returned to climbing phone poles as a lineman for four years. Thank you for the chance to feel like I was up there with you.

I started the carnivore diet in September. I went 3 months, before having a "cheat meal". I ate pizza, and it tasted fantastic. However, the next day, my gut hurt, I felt achy, and my joints didn't seem quite as limber. Couple days later, I was good again. Tried pizza again a couple months later and had the same reactions. I'm sticking to carnivore, from here on out. Once we clean up our diets, it's crazy how certain foods make our bodies react, and I at that crap for decades. Congrats on the diet fellas.

Hey Jake have you ever thought of doing a how to climb or some tips and method and some secrets to using the spurs and getting comfortable. Well, as well as one can be comfortable. I’ve been climbing for a year well off and on and it would be nice to learn some trick or methods to being more efficient. I know time is the key but would be nice to learn from you. You make it look so easy. Especially when you’re going up a 5’ round tree. Ahhhhh

Hi, I'm a fan of yours from Italy, I noticed that in America you practically never use the screw wedge driven by an impact drill, in my country in Europe it is used a lot for a question of speed and to save effort, I wanted give you the idea of maybe buying one or borrowing one to see your opinion. Congratulations for the videos you post

@jbsimmons54 5 месяцев назад

Sorry to hear your Husky 462 got stolen out of your truck! Might have to buy a bunch of same key padlocks and lock those saws down. Your biz insurance should help cover the replacement cost, if you have that particular theft endorsement. Should also look into and get biz interruption/biz continuance policy, as well as the disability insurance WA state doesn't have by law, i.e. law might require 6 months STD (short term disability of 6 months) and LTD is your dime, or the other way around. LTD saved my life at 42!

How do you (or I guess I should say how did you) like your 462. I bought one almost 2yrs ago for cutting a bunch of trees around my house. I love it but I haven't seen many professional guys using them. They all go for the 500i. I don't need mine long term so I'm going to sell it when I finish my project but I really wish I could keep it!

@Version135 3 месяца назад

I went 500. They are so close in weight it seemed the better long term purchase even with the extra cost. I think it's a lot more now I think it was only like 1200 then.
