Oi youve just cost the British tree services industry about three quarters of our work! If homeowners can do all the little trees like that theres nothing left for us 😂 all jokes aside great video great content great team great ethos, as always! Respect from the other side of the pond, brothers!
I have a dozen trees this kind of size: all leaners. And all have to come down before the leaves come out. All leaning south into my garden. I watch your videos because I enjoy them. This one actually helps me a lot. Excellent.
August......For me, coming from a background of commission sales, where the salespeople competed against each other, I really like to see a team working together as well as yours. Teamwork....great personalities....enjoyable surroundings....professional results.
That was a very worthy rewatch!!! It’s fun to have fun and if you can get $$ having fun that $$ can help pay for other kinds of fun so its a win win win fun fun fun!!!
Keep telling those little tricks. That helps me so much. Thank you. I work at a summer camp in Oregon called Canyonview. We were hit by the ice storm with several hundred trees down. I’ve had to learn how to cut everything up and your videos have made me look like a pro a few times. Thank you.
I have similar thoughts every time I go up on my roof. I keep meaning to have DNR* tattooed on my chest. 😆 * _Do not resuscitate_ - a medical / legal term-of art which I'm sure Augie & crew well know.
The monster drops are skilled art and appreciated but this is one of your best videos yet in lending a hand to the guy thinking about dropping some 'twigs"' at home. Congrats on the new channel as well.
Just loved the finish, the video itself was done so well (timing,content and flow) - then finishing it with your daughter’s gift, maybe purposefully placed there to keep you safe...your eyes happy-bright- honest...a moment deeply felt and well lived!
6:34 is a wonderful example of mechanical advantage. I remember thinking "BS" when I heard what kinds of forces are applied to slacklines, but when I started working out the physics I realized "whoa". I really appreciate the tips and tricks that people can apply without too much equipment, but it also drove home how this kind of stuff is not easy to intuit without lots of experience. That knot at 15:03 is really cool, I'll have to watch it a few times and give it a shot.
This is just another reason why your channel is one of my favorite channels. Just a super talented group of people that work well together. Your explanation of tree work is second to none. Thank you so much!
Love the poor man's 2:1 pull. I like to clip a micro-pulley with a carabiner into the loop when I use that trick. There's plenty of them in the bag, and it saves the rope.
I've never felled a tree in my life, only pruned a tiny one, but I love watching your videos. At 70 years old I doubt I will ever learn how to do it but your efforts still entertain me. Thank you.
I'm 70, just bought my gear over the past two years. It's great physical exercise, and a mental challenge as well. Climbing is terrifying, but I aways have two tie-ins. Felling is more fun, but I like to have some wiggle room. A channel from Vancouver Island (BBR) taught me to take my time, and if I make a mistake with the facecut or backcut, FIX IT ❤❤❤
Sweetheart of an amazingly interesting old fella! Awesome to be the one called into help on his property... kinda a nice thing knowing that you are the most trustworthy tree man in the area...because he definitely didn’t want anyone else!
You should have a million subscribers. you're a master arborist best tree video on CZcams. You would make a great teacher after your tree climbing days are done.
Have a great Easter great vid it’s nice to do some small trees just so ya don’t have to hang on to big saws all day an them were some great shots put em where ya want em
Some awesome lessons here, August! Don't think you can overstate the value of a well tossed line, whether over a limb or thru a crotch with a base tie! Your modified 'running bowline' was a new one to me, sure to find a use for it! Cheers to you and the crew...work safe!
I loved the ending! I hope your family has a good Easter! Thanks for all the tips. I’m not in the tree care world, and I’ll probably never use half of them, but I just find the problem solving you do incredibly intriguing. You are doing some serious critical thinking on the fly, spotting potential problems that would never cross my mind, and quickly arriving at a decision that’s both reasonably safe and efficient. I really appreciate you sharing your experience with the rest of the world. Thanks August!
Those were some VERY COOL rope tricks! 😃 Thank you for sharing those. Not a BIG tree job, but a lot of useful information for smaller trees amateurs are more likely to tackle. I always call a pro to handle ANY tree of any size, if there is a chance of trouble. Not worth the risk. I still appreciate the knowledge you share, even if I don't play lumberjack. 😊 Good video.
I used to commercial fish with a skipper who had that red color blind thing. Good Man. Never made me worry. " this boat is much tougher than the crew, we are good." Alaska sorts out the bad skippers really quickly. I miss those days.
I had to drop a small tree at home (about the size of the ones shown in this video), watching this channel gave the confidence I could it myself and not take out my garage. Thanks for making the videos!
Geez I love watching you guys work. I've learned alot and thanks for that. I'm just a homeowner with some trees around. I'm getting closer to tackling a rather large oak out back. Have a great Easter to all of you and your families.
Laser precision with the rope tossing....August must be a reincarnated qb from the 1900's....or a cowboy? Great team. Thanks for sharing the knowledge and the effort put into making these vids!! Cheers guys 🍻
Another well spent chunk of time watching AH and crew. Thanks for the great footage and even better info. I agree the suspenders are the best on the market.
Thank you for going to the extra trouble to make these videos for us to enjoy! Amen to your customer's advise: "Just trust in the Lord" - wise words to live by!
I've only ever once worked up the nerve to use a chainsaw to cut down a dead tree. I first watched about 50 of August's videos. :) Thanks so much for all of your friendly, clear, straightforward, and extremely helpful advice!
@@AnomadAlaska Chainsaws have always scared me. Dropping a tree scares me too. But studying August's videos gave me the confidence to do it. Face cut, hinge wood, back cut... It all makes perfect sense if you stop to think carefully about what you're doing at each step. I had a dead ash tree that's been bugging me for a couple of years already. It wasn't going to get better by itself. I didn't want it to crush any of the young evergreen trees that are nicely growing up to hide my neighbour's house from view. So I went slowly, aiming it exactly where I wanted it to go. Here's the result. Didn't even touch any of the evergreens. Yippee! czcams.com/video/MmvDx9_ZJJU/video.html
@@AnomadAlaska Ha! I still had to cut down the other half of the tree. It was leaning steeply to the left toward one of my neighbour's mature evergreens. But another of August's videos showed me that I didn't actually need to cut the tree right at its base. After some measuring and head-scratching I decided to cut the tree six feet up from the ground. It dropped just short of touching my neighbour's tree. He took all the firewood for his woodstove, and I bought myself a woodchipper for Christmas to take care of the brush pile. Big success all around. czcams.com/video/GjH5-GRJfjY/video.html
This is a really great video! Only many years of experience allows you to orchestrate what you do so well. And you manage to laugh as you work through it all.
Lots of days, I watch you guys instead of TV. More useful information, less violence, and more faith. Wins on all points! Plus, I'm a better woodsman because of your channel.
Good work👍 The mechanical advantage knot resembles a "Circus knot" The way I was taught to tie it is COMPLETELY different😂👍(Your way looks a bit easier) Awesome knot & really easy to untie
Thanks for this video August. It was good to see you take down some East Coast size trees that we can learn from. I love the big tree drops but “little” trees can teach the avg viewer so much.
Love the outhouse in the background. It says truly rural site. Used one as a boy at grandmothers in Iowa small town. Hers was triple width with 2/3rds used for storing corncobs she would use for winter fast start in her wood oven-cooking top combination. She had upgraded to coal for the main gravity feed furnace.
great professionalism...what a team. "the eyebrow raise" that customers do.... funny detail! Thanks for focusing all that talent and experience onto some smaller trees and explaining with tips and tricks as you go... even to the point of anticipating viewer questions! Great closing words from the customer.
Good job man. good teaching. Same I started cutting little branches removing brushes and turning into a tree service with equipment. (4) 2001 ford f 350 diesel.Towable boom lift geane 70 feet high skidsteer case track loader with a graple a new Lamar dump trailer 14,000 lb, and 22 foot long diamond c trailer with foldable ramps and 2 year training with a friend now I have a business and one worker some days are different than others but the main thing is doing it safe and fun and some days I have to improvise and those little tricks you are showing help alot in the field thanks man I appreciate it be safe thank you.
Love your videos I have learned a lot watching your videos. I have done a little tree work myself and I'm cutting trees down for lumber I built myself a saw mill I use with my chain saw its an old wood boss I rebuilt it and replaced the crank shaft bearings and it runs like new .
All the way through this video I kept hearing Mac Davis sing "it's hard to be humble ". Dang you guys are good. How do you live with yourself being that dang good? Great job FANTASTIC VIDEO!!👍👍👍👍👍👍
Hi Mr August Hunicke, you guys are awesome, thanks for all the show and tell rope skills and knots. you made me laugh really loud. Rock paper scissors... No Chipper today? All I am going to add is you guys are the Tree Ninja's.. Have a good day gents.
I agree; it is fun planning out a cut and fall path and seeing it all work out. Gonna be honest, I had one last cut to make on a bradford pear in my front yard, leaning toward the house. I used my truck, some rope and straps, a lot of patience and even went down to a hand saw so I could hear the wood noise with each cut. All that kept running through my head was "I'm glad that guy August can't see this..."
I've subscribed. I have been watching your videos for the past 10 days the way other people watched Game of Thrones. I found you because I bought a small electric chain saw, my limits.. even with a Fiskars bow saw having been reached.I wanted to make sure I used it right and carefully. I just love your ropes, knots, climbing, technique and work ethic. I love your knowledge of and care for trees, even when you're taking them out. I wish I could ask you to come and stay and do my place... but you know what, after watching your videos, I will do more, and better myself, and I feel sorry for any contractor I ask to come and finish off.. as they're going to have to meet a really fussy high standard. If you guys ever want a work-cation in Ireland, let me know... I'll do my utmost to make it carefree and fun.. and get a lot of work done at the same time.
I learned three or four "tricks" plus some know-how. Why was I concerned about watching a 40-min video? Many thanks August. You've made an amateur tree faller more adventurous and less risky.
You and your crew are good and you play well work well and explain the way you are off to do it and then do it the video's are very informative thanks for the tips
Hard to call it "little" it's an 8lbs saw, don't get me wrong I own & love mine but it's a 36cc "top-end" climbsaw, the opposite-end of the spectrum (for Echo) from @August Hunicke 's lil 2511 (which look to be the coolest petrol climbsaws in existence, when my 25cc dies I'd get one *but* lithium units are basically supplanting petrol so a 5lbs lithium unit is just a short matter of time IMO) But yeah the 355t competes with the biggest ie Stihl 201t (36cc) and Husqy's 540xp (38cc), I own a 355 so am biased, and while it's not a lil saw or my "starting" saw when I first go up a tree, for "top dog" of the climbsaws IMO it is the best, it's got better power//weight than a 201t, and is lighter than the 540xp and IMO once you need over 8lbs/35cc you should be grabbing a rear handle lol, and all this *despite* the fact it's just $350 (and has a crazy warranty, and lets you return a used unit for 1 week after purchase) Can't rep echo's 355t (and 2511) enough am surprised they don't have 3/4+ market share..$350 with Stihl or Husq gets you their mid-level, you need to spend $600-700 for top-end stihl&husq climbsaws, when that same $750 buys a 355t *and* a 2511 ;D (BTW I keep an 18" b&c with real low rakers on my modded 355t and it shreds!!!)
I've learned alot and yes he's about the best explaner of what why and how come he does what he does ... I'm just starting this endeavor of adventure he's doing and if I lived where he lived I'd be buggin to work with him ...
I can't help but thinking "fish slippers" every time you talked about slapping 😆. I like the farmers knot or three ring circus for a midline, no knife required.
"I'd rather die out in the woods somewhere"
Spoken like a true woodsman! ❤️
Not only are you good at tree work, you do a good job explaining what you are doing. Folks can really learn a trick or two from watching your videos.
Oi youve just cost the British tree services industry about three quarters of our work! If homeowners can do all the little trees like that theres nothing left for us 😂 all jokes aside great video great content great team great ethos, as always! Respect from the other side of the pond, brothers!
August, I started climbing a year ago (as a DIY'er) and your videos have been invaluable to me.

My Dad is on his way out. That spoke to me.
