    I've been watching your videos for a while now and I just realized that you don't run ads... You don't get involved with endorsement or sponsorships. I think that's awesome you have almost 350K subscribers and you do this just because you enjoy it. And I'm glad you share it with us.

      I think it’s a Ford. Having moved a similar tree that came down in a storm with my Massey subcompact; I can tell you that the key to it was to cut it into smaller chunks with the chainsaw first. It was really heavy when it was still green...

    • @maryannanderson7517
      @maryannanderson7517 Před 4 lety

      I just watched three videos and each featured one young man. They all three were about the same age. This video has Andrew, who is self-employed, and is constantly doing some sort of job for someone and in this one he is taking down a tree. The video I watched just before this one was of Jesse Muller, who is also self-employed, and is constantly doing some sort of job for someone, and in the video I just watched he was building a back deck on to someone's house.
      In the video I watched before Jesse, the young man made an unwilling appearance on the show "Cops" and the young man who is about Andrew and Jesse's age, was walking down the middle of the street weaving in and out of traffic and he's high as a kite on some sort of illegal drug and I would bet money that he has no way to make money now and possibly has never made money performing any sort of legal job because doing drugs seems to be his only job.
      Isn't it amazing that three young men all had the opportunity to make something of themselves and two of them chose to do so and are well on their way to becoming very successful (and probably very wealthy) and one is satisfied to roam around in the middle of the street in a drugged up stupor getting pulled in by cops who confiscate his illegal drugs and let him go staggering on down the street or occasionally take him in to spend the night in a cell while he comes down off his high.
      Before anyone else says it I will acknowledge that drug usage is very addictive and I believe it is extremely difficult to break that habit; however, I also believe that getting on drugs in the first place is a choice. Unless someone is held down while someone else sticks a needle in his vein then HE made the choice to experiment with drugs so the subsequent addiction is no one's fault but his own. I know that people are very complimentary of someone who manages to get off drugs and that's as should be. However, how about some kudos to all the young people who have the will power or the gumption or whatever you might want to call it that keeps them off drugs in the first place? I think they too are deserving of some praise. Sorry for my rant but seeing how these young men were polar opposites just made me wonder WHY they should be such polar opposites. SMH

He was an experienced woodsman. You appear to take precautionary measures. I would suggest you yank on those dead trees to let any loose limbs or upper tree trunk break and fall out before you get under it. We love you man and do not want to see you get injured or worse.
    Keep up the good work!!!!

    Those little Kubota tractors are amazing machines, my neighbor has one and it does great work.

      Yeah they are. And since i know that you can get some of them with the same quick change plate that a skidd steer has i like those things even more!

    The arc rake is a very valuable tool. I have a 7 footer that has saved me a lot of time and made some money.
