Jake, i have been watching your videos for a few weeks now and I am a fan. Your positive attitude is an inspiration, let alone your skill and tree climbing bravery! You decide what's in your videos, but if i may make a suggestion: Your videos tend to focus on chain sawing. It is interesting for sure, and i have picked up a few tips, but many of us either own a saw or can imagine using one. What sets you arborists apart from the rest of us is the tree climbing, that is the most fascinating. The ropes, the knots, the techniques, the gadgets (ascenders, spurs,...), how to set a zip line, how to be safe up there. There is some of that already, but please show more of that and tell what you are are looking for while climbing, when it is safe to do so. Keep up the good work!
@brianhawes31158 ай бұрын
I totally agree, as a rock climber I don’t use the rope for anything but a slip or fall, he never shows how the rope somehow gets above him, and it looks like he has some sort of safety line to make a cut instead of just on his flip line, let’s keep asking because he does get a lot of time off between jobs

Jacob - watching you drop the pieces while taking down that stem waaaaaaay high up there gave me an idea, which would make for a great video but probably will be difficult to find the situation: if you ever have a tree job next to an abandoned house or one slated for demolition, you should set up cameras inside the house and show the consequences of dropping a branch butt end straight down and some shorter chunks right onto the roof. Primarily to show climbers what the consequences are of any errors in the air, so to speak. We already know what a tree falling over into the house looks like (tons of videos on that), but dropping a 4" diameter 18" long piece from that high up? Will that go through the roof all the way into the living space? How big of a piece will? There are some science-project level questions to be answered here!

The coolest tree service job I had involved 6 80 foot red pines near an 100 year old cottage by a lake.The cottage was scheduled for demolition to make room for a modular home . Originally the cottage was supposed to be out of there before I took the trees down but the excavator couldn't fit due to the trees .I told the guy that the only way they can come down is if I can drop them on the cottage. He agreed and we went at it .The first 5 landed on the roof and did some damage but not until I dropped the sixth one did we see some change .The sixth tree had a back lean away from the cottage and leaned towards a highway and some major pipelines and the only way to get it to go on the cottage was to shoot my pull line up high to get the most leverage and pull with my one ton truck .Needless to say when it hit it took down the roof to the first floor and blew out the window glass 20 feet .I remember the man's son in law saying "That was friggin sweet!" He has it on video somewhere 😂😂😂😂😂

Jake, nice you had a cool customer. You were more upset about punching the asphalt than the customer. Lesson. To keep your truck from stargazing when pulling a loaded trailer, there are helper springs you can install on top of the stock springs. They don't engage unless the stock springs flatten out under load so they don't stiffen the ride when not loaded. I've had several trucks that I've installed them on. It's one of the first mods I do.

Enjoyed the video. Nice work on those pines. One thing....suppose you injured yourself up top while chunking and you had to exit quick? Say a saw cut. You only have your lanyard holding you , no climb line. So tied in twice is safety in case of lanyard failure...but also allows you to bail out quickly if necessary. I like the zigzag running through an adjustable friction saver or usaver. Just saying.
