    this California palm was ready for skinning. All the skin/bark was just coming off with barely any effort.
    still need to use that carpet knife to get those details

    We have only one Palm tree and it grew tall. I was wondering how the Palm trees were trimmed, as I never saw this done. I thought a machine did the cleaning? Thanks for informing us how it is done. Now to get my son to work! Scary about the scorpions and spiders, thanks for the warning!

    I recommend tarps underneath your working area, it helps with the clean up.

    Thank for the video. Just wondered why this process is necessary? Might it help fix a dying palm tree?

    I like your technique....much less pulling.

  • @connortheamphibia90sfan27

    I think they should always wear gloves for skinning or trimming any palm trees because it is very important for safety

    How much does something like this cost to do per tree. You charge hourly rate or you charge by tree. How long does it take you to do one tree 3’. This is cool I always wondered why those palms looked like this at the bottom sections.

    How much do you charge to do the skinning part

  • @Vanguardcredit
    @Vanguardcredit Před 11 měsíci +3

    Can you skin it all the way to the top? Or why just 3ft?
    I am doing some but its my first time

  • @davidbiller8813
    @davidbiller8813 Před 6 měsíci +1

    What time of year should I do this?
    How tall/old should a tree grow before I do this?

    • @mr.benitezhimself
      @mr.benitezhimself  Před 6 měsíci +1

      I’d do this before spring/summer. Make sure the palms are at least 5ft + or taller

  • @socalsand86
    @socalsand86 Před rokem +1

    Why only 3’ a year? If my palm is about 10’ to the green up top can I skin more than 3’ up at once?

    • @mr.benitezhimself
      @mr.benitezhimself  Před 5 měsíci +2

      In this case, the client wanted me to go 3’ a year. It gets costly by the foot, or to skin a whole palm.

    How about using a sander for the finishing touch?

  • @dominicc6988
    @dominicc6988 Před 2 lety +2

    Does this method of skinning apply across different palm tree species? For instance, where I live, I have Sabal Palmettos and the boot splits at the base. I want to skin mine bc I think they look more presentable but I don't want to damage them.

      @@WildlifeWarrior-cr1kk thank you. I live in Bonaire, island off the coast of venezuela and the palm shaving is getting more popular over here and we have these same palms. I can do the work but no idea on pricing. So thank you so much for the info bro🙏

    • @mr.benitezhimself
      @mr.benitezhimself  Před 5 měsíci

      I charge by the foot, or a discounted price if I skin the whole palm. US dollar price

      I am not a contractor but I do have my busjj on business licenses for each county/city I do business in, plus insurance to do these type of jobs
