Nice video, could have been improved by telling people HOW to secure the twine to the roof rack and how to anchor the twine on cars without a roof rack, since most cars don't have one.

Thanks so much for this tutorial! I just brought home my family’s Christmas tree; it’s the first one I’ve ever tied to my car by myself. I should’ve used thicker twine but it was a short drive. Thanks again!

You aren’t supposed to tie the tip because there is a chance it could break it and it would be useless then.
@rtravisking3 жыл бұрын
True if you tie too close to the tip or leader as it's called in Christmas Tree speak. I advise tying further down the tree below where the leader meets the trunk. The leader is usually about as thick as your thumb and where it joins the trunk at the top of the tree it gets to be about as thick as your wrist. That's the safest place to tie.

Love the video I run a tree operation and I get this kid a job and he’s so slow . He has a tree on a caravan with roof racks ok I leave come back 20 min later he’s tying it inside the van??? Wtf!!! I said dude why didn’t you use the rack omg . I don’t think he’s going to work out . They all think it’s easy until you get a day of rain and those trees are 40lbs heavier and your soaking wet. Hope you guys have a great season and you crush on the tips . Got my first 50$ Bill tip and a few 20’a so far this year I’m crushing haha

Would it not scratch the roof?
@edtherockhound99443 жыл бұрын
It will 100% scratch the roof of the guy loading the tree on it starts moving cut on the roof . What I do is I place my one arm under and lift to move so I don’t scratch the car . Use a sheet or blanket and it will be fine but always make sure the stump is just above the windshield of your tree will look like a Charlie Brown when you get home

I think a better way to not have rope running through the car is open the doors and tie off on the latch hoops on your door frame.. that's what i do then tie a loop mid way and make a trucker hitch then run the other end through the other latch hoop and back up and tighten it. Once you close your door it will tighten down even more..

Hi Travis, Thank you. We picked up our Xmas tree from a great farm here in Virginia today and I used your techniques to great effect. I felt far less nervous about driving on the highway. Also, I think you have good presentation skills. I would encourage you to post up on your channel other useful tips and techniques on other subjects. Thank you.

How long should each piece of twine should be?
@MrNZ197 жыл бұрын
ive been working trees for a friends company for 3 years now, in general i like to go with two wingspans full of twine, 2 full arm extensions, that usually yields enough twine and then some

DevilsrejectTraining I agree with Nick. Somewhere in the 5 foot range. If unsure start long and cut off the extra or just tie more on if you're too short.
