[@AugustHunicke]

I’m gonna like this video

[@reonrounds7404]

Number 1!! I think u guys need one 🤔😁hope your doing good August 💪😁

[@lucfournier3939]

Mmm. I am going to give my boots a shine .

[@terryphillips7443]

Will you sell one of these on monkeybeaver?

[@danielgiebner9075]

I just took my tree business full time. Found you on KZbin and studying your stuff like a hawk. Definitely the key to be successful

[@fuqutube]

same lol

[@susandallessandro2905]

Heck, I am a retired woman who has no desire to cut down a tree but I think I want one of these machines! Ha It is amazing. I loved this video. Keep making them and I will keep watching.

[@mattwood9981]

Freakin insane how efficient that machine and of course the crew are!!!

[@archie509]

I love that Merlo are used to do tree work a long time ago and I had one five had one of those then life would be so much easier

[@billymiller9991]

Ever since I discovered you when treeson worked with you I was hoping you push some content your operation is inspiring to say the least so smooth and efficient

[@laurendestito6808]

After 40 yrs in the business its nice to see a young hard worker, going for it. Enjoy your vids and content. Waiting for our merlo in about a week, looking forward to it. Keep up the good work. Be safe. You have a great group of guys take care of them! Hope to meet sometime . Nick Destito tree services mass.

[@Yankeebelletreeworks]

This dude is living in the future and i can’t even get my SENA to stay connected

[@troytreeguy]

She’s amazing, I see the space to operate being the only real limit and a stick boom is always for hire. Great video Reon keep it up 👍

[@gregthompson3928]

Great machine. You have so much room over there. I could probably fit that machine in on one job in the last 12 months here in Northern England!

[@destinationom]

I'd watch the Merlo work without it sped up so much :) AMAZING how fast you can get massive trees done!

[@austinsmith3749]

Awesome video Reon, thanks for bringing us along! That thing is INSANE. Super cool… I just want to come work for you now haha

[@brettblack7049]

You didn't want to before 😜

[@ChopperGooders]

Let's goooo 🤠 always a treat when a Reon video drops

[@dcvariousvids8082]

Truly impressive machine… matches your crew and work.

[@sidneyturner3427]

Yes we want more.. Great to see a young , talented guy , showing the old dogs new tricks.. We're looking at the future..

[@chamness964]

As I get older having a machine like that is more promising for me! Nice work Reon!! Great job!

[@soppastreeservice6404]

I’m so happy that Tony was able to come out to see the Merlo in person! It is definitely a dream machine! Maybe Soppa’s Tree Service, Inc. will have one sometime soon! 🌳🪵

[@barrettmills856]

That Sc60TX I bought from you last year has been awesome . Gave me a whole new passion and career I love . Been a blast . I saw Tony on the video and looked at my wife I said that guy looks awfully familiar . Sure enough I said that’s the Tony I bought my grinder from .

[@zirzmokealot4600]

I see yours is for sale. Any particular reason why?

[@dickjafo1733]

Ive been doing this work for quite awhile, that is without a doubt the fastest Ive ever seen that many trees done, and you got two jobs done, that second one was amazingly fast, while rudimentary equipment and climber, all day just on that one tree if not a day and a a bit, then cleanup, WOW!!! The amount of weight that Merlo can handle is shocking, it's on the bucket list. Little , if any, lawn disturbance. Nice!

[@bigbluram]

That looked like a half day job for my crew as well ! But we would grind stumps and haul grindings as well ! We have an altec 38-127 , 75 'terex bucket , t595 ctl and morbark m18r. I have had a lot of days where we end up dumping our 35yd chip truck 4 and 5 times as well as 3-4 tri axle grapple trucks of logs with 4 guys and a crane operator. I shoot for a daily minimum of $5k, some days its $12-15k and others its just $2500-3k but $5k is my target. If we are not making $1k + an hr while actually on the we underbid it .

[@robertabbott8541]

I don't even do tree work, and I WANT ONE. NOW!!!

[@francochanfrau7573]

Amazing work Reon .

[@lejjan94]

i love Merlo mashines have alot of them here in Sweden :D

[@samuelluria4744]

When you started to say, "My GPS says I'll be there...." ....I thought you were going to say, "Next Tuesday.." 😜

[@lukependleton2589]

You'll never see this. You seem like a really solid dude. Thank you for sharing all the great content

[@robertgomez7433]

Love your channel

[@eddiecabrera1408]

Once again Reon you succeeded man you are a beast with that Merlot 5035 and your name says it all the name of your company Reon rounds cuz you can go the full 12 rounds but it seems like no matter what job you're on you get to the two round and you knock them out good job champ stay safe keep recording so I can keep watching. God bless

[@owencoyle2841]

Sweet video Reon. Can’t wait to see the new crane 🏗

[@joshmullinnex5113]

Dang just dang! So sweet!

[@szabolcsszilagyi5044]

........that's how we do it in Europe ...nice job ,well done guys .......

[@rucksackcircus4328]

Beautiful machine! I’m only 2 years into business and working with some old junk but definitely dreaming about buying one of these down the road.

[@elliotkramer9912]

You are an inspiration. Love your enthusiasm. Happy to see you making videos again. I remember watching your videos when I was just starting… used to drool over your stick boom. Now i drool over this. 😂

[@reonrounds7404]

Thanks Elliot keep up the hard work! I’m Proud of you bud💪💪

[@brotherscraig1118]

Wow this thing is awesome. Definitely a tool worth the price tag. 👌 If one of these made its way to my area, it could make a lot of money really quickly. I'd love to get inside this beast.

[@fredpayne7581]

What an awesome video brother, great job

[@bethelle9099]

So impressive!!! Kudos to the engineers of this machine! Boy could I use one of those! Thanks Reon!

[@alanmagee1207]

LOVE IT.

[@BG-vq9fd]

Awesome machine and operator.

[@tree_monkey3120xp]

Thanks for sharing Reon that is truly amazing love the machine! Stay safe and keep the chips flying!

[@mikerobinson8284]

Yes, keep them coming! Thank you so much for taking the time to share!!

[@drewsider4902]

Insane! Awesome video reon…..

[@johnspahr6497]

Two comments Nice to see you making youtube videos again. THAT Merlo is the bomb! Nice toy, super efficient. Nice job Reon !

[@igorgoryshin4406]

Hard to tell, which crane is greater. Each one is for particular task! The job itself as always brilliant. keep it this way.

[@tbonemc2118]

It's really a machine made for frozen ground otherwise you could tear up someone's yard in a big hurry. Definitely a machine worth having because it has so many good points. 9 trees in a single day at two different sites. Wow.

[@bigbluram]

Huh ? I take a 38 ton crane across wet yards all the time ! Just gotta lay down plywood and stay on the plyway to hell or u will sink outa sight

[@randywilson6869]

I would rather have a yard tore up instead of a roof or climber. But just think of how many trees u will have to take down before u put a dime in your pocket. I do see why we are impressed but at the end of a year I think I would clear more with a 1 ton and dump trailer and a couple hands to drag brush. I could have done the first job easily in 2 days and the second one in the front yard would b easy with out a lift. To much money for a tree company

[@joshpomponio2993]

That’s a awesome piece of equipment 👊

[@olympiatreecare7955]

This ting is amazing. I want one now. You're so right, you cannot unsee it!

[@tubbsamateurtreeservice5302]

So efficient! That’s just wild. What would have been days and you were done before lunch! Thank you for the video

[@carlobernardi1387]

WOW... that's all I can say...speak about not having to climb ever again... That must be a very expensive machine..😁😁😁😁 great work brother...

[@kylejohnson7464]

Great video awesome machine, Can’t wait to see more !

[@TheFullyChargedGardener]

Awesome bit of kit! With a skilled operator - great video 👍

[@stevengullison5123]

Good evening, I would love to have that 40 years ago, Good job

[@dgibbsfl]

Video #2 watched. Subscribed. Awesome content.

[@dawnbradrick6289]

Dawns here ☀️

[@johnsegard5190]

Thank you love watching you guys work. Smooth

[@dustinmarquand5301]

Love it

[@Bdigital9482]

Love a black walnut tree job. Always a nice surprise here in my region of New York. Love that Merlo as well. Def. something to look at for an investment; if it can complement our business.

[@samuelluria4744]

Whenever there's a Keith, there's usually a Kyle nearby _somewhere_ ...

[@JohnIsaac88]

Awesome machine and video! Keep them coming 🇨🇦

[@jackofall2305]

The local tree service got one setup the same here in ny. When I saw it I was like "hey I know what that is" And my family said "why"

[@sizemoretreeworks]

For sure more of this content, love watching the Merlo.

[@jamescole1786]

3/25/22; Reon, don't know what your investment is...probably the top in the residential, light commercial market for arborist tree felling in the whole USA...!! Wow! Extremely safe, efficient & fast. Great narration & production organization...having 6-7 other arborist on site to watch (in amazement) at incredible 'grab, articulate & spot placement' of heavy large segments of target tree...yup, wanna see more of your videos! August H. gotta be itchin' to get one..? His trees in Oregon art kinda tall...your trees don't seem as tall as his..not sure, just wondering as armchair viewing via GoPro camera eye etc.. But is their a height optimum for your green 'grabber' such that trees in Oregon, August H. area, would not be an ideal match for your size machine? Much enjoy watching your super efficient & safe machine (green grabber) remedy homeowners tree felling needs. Thanks & yes, do more videos on this modern machine.👍👍👍🛠😊🌳

[@goldshieldenterprises692]

More more moreeeee!

[@d8vidd8vid]

What an amazing machine the trees don’t stand a chance

[@dawnbradrick6289]

More like Merlin making MAGIC!

[@CarrotCaptain]

Takes 2hrs to drive to the site and 15 minutes to cut the tree down. Super cool.

[@samuelluria4744]

This is where a Winnebago support vehicle, and a well-planned schedule are key!😜

[@danmcburney3247]

Dang that machine is the bomb !!! Of course we want more video's.... just need a towel with them to wipe the drool off 🤣 Awesome video Reon and thank you !!! Gotta fly up again SOON... just got back from a weekend in Nashville this afternoon.

[@reonrounds7404]

Yes you guys have to come visit soon!!!🤗

[@jefferykennedy919]

The company I work for had one until very recently, the outriggers were plagued with issues and it was in the shop more than it was in the field.

[@marc53200]

Super matériel , je m'abonne..good job.

[@SebKrause661]

Now we just need one in Australia 😂 Would it be possible to have some more footage of the Avant in action? How do you compare the grapple to the conventional avant log grab?

[@bigmanbs1]

That looks like an awesome piece of gear! I suppose the only downfall of that machine would be needing a lot of space to operate. Couldnt work around any overhead wires, and always needs a huge work area. But as long as you have space, this is by far the fastest tree wrecker

[@elliotkramer9912]

One would think… but I got to watch him run this in a really tight setup. It’s more space efficient than it looks. The outriggers are only 17’!

[@brettblack7049]

I'd think a limiting factor would be damaging yards/drives, but as with any tool or skill level you will find your niche.

[@gregbrown9271]

That is the sweeties peace of equipment wish I could have one awesome job Reon 💪💪💪

[@reonrounds7404]

Thanks Greg!

[@prothompson]

Good job. It's been good to see you put out more videos.

[@joelisaac7835]

Pretty sweet!

[@JD3D67]

Yes, I like the content. Please make more.

[@brockhawk7970]

Dope

[@karlmckinnell2635]

Merlo Madness. 🎉❤

[@lindencamelback2305]

Just curious, and I am sure the answer is yes: When you remove valuable trees- Cedar, Walnuts, Oaks, etc. do you sell the wood or process it with a friend, etc. I assume any wood you harvest is yours, but I can understand an owner saying, "Hey, that's my wood."

[@rhondasweeney7271]

Cool!

[@alanblasczyk1779]

Excellent job Reon. I found you thu Jakes channel, Guilty of Treeson.

[@reonrounds7404]

Thanks Happy Easter😁

[@Nahdooo27]

I’d really like to know what your profit margins are on that machine for daily use.

[@chichitex1252]

That was amazing!❤

[@dennisryan7487]

Good job Reon ! Good Video! Keep em comin!

[@brendonhilltreeservices982]

Rock and role! Love it!

[@carlmanis879]

I estimate it cost about 12,000 to 14,000 a month for 60 months to buy that machine. Your looking at 2 to 3 large trees a month just to pay for it that although you could do in a day. I would say the cost is of it is offset set a lot by the reduction in the amount of workers needed to do the job. The only thing the small guy just starting out could not get a loan for it. Your company would have to have a lot of work and a steady supply to afford this machine.

[@twofjs6334]

Cool tool.

[@julianalderson3938]

Buetiful if get the access. Cheers

[@rickstafford5316]

Very controlled. I love it

[@phaedruskener7732]

No sweats broken… I’ll be getting fat with one of these!

[@devondunkle1063]

I'd go broke greasing zirt fittings. 😂 beautiful equipment all around Reon.

[@reonrounds7404]

Thanks!

[@tinkeringtaylor3053]

love to see more,great work

[@gageb9592]

Nice video. love your content Reon 💪🏼

[@bygerold4270]

Bg187 WOW. Fast and safe !

[@markheintz1878]

I loved running a 5035 , but I hated how heavy it is. 54,000 # really limits what you do. It's fine on the street but after that, you really need to watch what you do. It's pretty much a frozen ground only machine off road. But still amazing what you can get done in a short time when i ran it. But personally I would never buy this $500,000.00 machine just because of the weight factor alone. Even putting mats under it isn't enough, as I found out. A spider lift is a lot better option for year round use, and they can go almost anywhere .The Merlo is a very good machine, safe, quiet and stable. It's just too heavy for most residential projects. A truck crane and spider lift is a much better combination for many jobs.

[@jeffstone2585]

That Merlo is a heck of a machine! The black walnut from the first job, any value to it or not worth the trouble?

[@barrettmills856]

Small world I purchased my Sc60tx grinder from Tony a year ago .

[@jelinektreeservice]

You have the 50.30 still or did you upgrade to the 50.35?

[@mitchjones2821]

Could have used this today. Decrepit willow down behind a house over a lake. Only 16’ deep sunroom between drive way and tree. Would have been slick.

[@GermanoEllinas]

European Engineering at Work in the US, very nice !

[@hfraat25]

Impressive

[@hansgruber7680]

Making wood chips!

[@briancarrier9299]

That machine is a great part of your team. Maybe time to give her a proper name.

[@danielpullum1907]

What did you do with the black walnuts? Ya sure got some equipment!!!!! What does that beauty cost?

[@boyse69]

Sweet video
