One of those days...

[@kutunuikunikuni1301]

Well done fella....I especially like your safety approach to every situation from wearing the correct gear....including those around you, to operating techniques. ...like no drop starting, to total control of the job site....informing everyone on each step. Good work.

[@Human1337]

Thanks =) Find it much easier/safer to work when everyone knows the gameplan, so that the execution is smooth, usually, lol

[@kutunuikunikuni1301]

Ah well. ....you can only do what you can do. Sometimes shit happens and things sort of head south. ...just goes to show you're only "Human".hahaha.

[@jamesfarnham1976]

Love watching these videos, reminds me of the "olden" days...but without the frets or the sweat! Thanks!!

[@jamieshaffer6493]

Human, I retired from the tree biz, and let me tell you, I admire your professionalism and detail to safety. Your job is a bit different than what mine was, as I did line clearance, and for the past 10 our so years, I was what they call a "bucket baby"...😂 The wear and tear on my back and hips slowed me down a great deal. I am a truck driver now, not otr, all local. I'm so glad I found your channel, I love watching your videos, man. Keep up the good work, and stay safe, brother!

[@Human1337]

Thanks =) I know how spoiled we are these days, still a rough job, but all the gizmos make it much less stressful on the body. Sorry to hear about your issues.

[@jamesbowers3540]

I don't commit much on videos. I like how over the years of watching your videos how much effort you have put into learning and doing great work. Pros.at what you do

[@woodturnerky8556]

Your skills are improving so fast it's crazy! You can set that hinge to the direction you want quickly and your cuts meet up really well with very little clean up needed.....awesome work! Real arborist and feller

[@yoMXTT]

Probably one of the most satisfying videos ive watched in awhile, Enjoyed this one lots Noticing the great quality Keep doing you man

[@TheSynStalker]

I love that the universal first reaction to bumping your head while on the job is to look at your buds to find out if they saw it.

[@xqiuvmah]

There was a massive pine right off of my property, nearly 4ft thick and 100+ft tall. During a heavy storm it fell bringing up a root ball that was 15ft in diameter and about 8ft deep. But I still think that no professional could have dropped it more perfectly. It fell the only possible direction between my house and the woods nearby only knocking my gutter off the corner of my house. Any more in one direction or the other and it falls on a thick tree line or my house. It also was 3ft short of hitting my neighbor's house. But my dad and grandfather came to help me cut it up to move it and as we keep trimming off branches, my grandpa keeps climbing over the trunk to get to the other side. We didn't notice what he was doing but fortunately a neighbor did and warned him he was probably going to go flying if he kept it up when the root ball dropped. The ball didn't drop until only about 12ft of trunk remained and it was the loudest thump I have ever heard

[@michaelsinclair8279]

Now that's the look of a man who is back to doing what he does damned well and having a ball doing it! Finest kind to see you back in the groove laddie!

[@zandemen]

Hell yeah, 394xp and 395xp are pretty decent saws. They will drive a skip tooth chain on a 36" bar all day, and if you need a 60" it's easy enough to change drive sprockets if you're finding it lacking in bottom end power.

[@brianpiercy6702]

Digging it Cory. Almost like production falling. Stoked to see you looking 110% Thank you for sharing.

[@jeremypatton80]

That 395 is a beast. Beware it u will become a convert. Lol. Own stihl and husqvarna. Favorite is an 08 372xp. Get that saw sharp and turned up it will get it done.fast. My best stihl is my 200t. Hard to find anymore. Great video stay safe.

[@samuelluria4744]

I miss my big Huskies, from 1995, and '98, and 2002..... haven't cut with a big Husky in many years😢.....sold my last old Husky climbing saw to an employee, around 10 years ago....he was still running it, as of two years ago...

[@milehighplecos2318]

I'm gonna invent a new drinking game. You have to watch your videos and whenever you say "cool" you take a shot! Lol. Keep it up buddy your on fire!

[@Kurgosh1]

Drinking games are not meant to be suicide pacts.

[@tymesho]

Simply curious, why do you always start your face cut with the angle cut?

[@stevenblake8642]

If u think the 395 is nice I have a 2100 ...it is 100 cc saw and I run a 36" bar on it,I am a firewood guy and the saw only gets used for specific large trees to be bucked and fallen but everytime I use it it puts big smile on my face!!!I also run a husky 440 and an echo 590!!not much u can't do with those three combined!!!

[@kk5sc]

Nicely done, methodical and not getting in too big of a hurry!

[@milboltnut]

angle cutting above your wedge cut would eliminate the plastic wedges.

We hired two irish pro to decimate 3 big furs threatening the neigbours during several years and storms and finally we gave up and said all right then. They came after a hefty donner wetter and the big 135 kg muscle man climbed and said that was right in time man it´s blowing but I´ll fix it and my good he was a circus entertainer and we all kept our breathing enjoying that climbing and cutting and sorting using just lines. How skilled. We saved three stumps about 5 m high

[@tereseduffy6591]

Have you ever thought about working with a company that will come in and slab up the felled tree so it could be used to make stuff?

[@Human1337]

They were actually doing just that with the wood from this job, from what I've heard (not 100% though) there is a market for cottonwood in china, and of course the couple little black walnuts as well. Need to start learning more about the timber industry in general so I'm not just trashing something that could possibly be worth something to someone.

[@jasonblanton7185]

Yep the 395 it's a beast and out cuts sthil hands down the best saw for the average faller that's for sure ... in the eastern half of the country anyway

[@jpoorr9973]

Cory I know it may seem financially wrong but you should always have an experienced climber running your rope for you they tend to know even from the ground what a limb is going to do when to let it ride when not to very minimal communication is needed maybe just a hand signals on how many wraps to use on bigger wood which weight can't be judged from the ground plus you end up with a guy who you can switch off with on who's going to climb and who's going to run to Porter Wrap having a confidence in a guy that you know it's not going to fuck up and possibly hurt you makes it so much easier and less stressful

[@Human1337]

I absolutely agree, and it's actually in the ansi that you're supposed to have two climbers on every job. You're absolutely correct on the fiscal aspect of it too though, in an urban area like st.louis, there's simply too much competition to be able to have that in a crew and still stay out of the red. We do have some pretty amazing guys on the ropes though, I'll be posting a video from last week in which my groundsman rocked it all day on the ropes.

[@jpoorr9973]

Human yeah the key is to keep that guy working for you you know how it is with ground guys most of them could care less they're just there to get a paycheck and there's such a high rate of turn around but once you get a good one that's dedicated and willing to learn more about the profession then you do what you can to keep him you need to have one guy like that on your crew which basically will be your ground Foreman then the other guys just dragging brush won't have to be that skilled

[@crispyspa]

I could look the following question up on Google and get my answer, but where's the fun in that? Here's my question: what was that one tree that had the yellow looking wood?

[@coreywright9346]

Hey human, new subscriber here ive been watching your videos over the past week or so, what would you for a good all around climbing boot that I could use with spurs? thanks in advance, also loving the videos

[@Human1337]

I couldn't really say on that one honestly, everyones feet are different and handle spurs in different ways. I'd maybe look at how much pruning you do vs. removals and maybe go with the type of boot that fits you're work load best. I'm pretty fond of my evo 2's in spurs now that I'm used to them, actually spurred in them today, but in no way would I want to spend hours spurred in with them on. Same with my loggers, I can prune in them a bit, but in no way would I want to prune a large tree with them on. Sorry I'm pretty much no help on this =(

[@SuperColoradokush]

Good job I’m glad you’ve gotten better then your earlier vids! Ever had the chance to meet Rip Tompkins?

[@noyezz3690]

4:43 funny head bump!! and than looking around "did they see that?" :D

[@henryholliday1]

what kind of trees were those? some nice looking logs

[@Human1337]

Mostly cottonwood, couple smaller black walnut

[@hypnolobster]

You seem mighty chill to ground for.

[@tonybailey4949]

hey man do you have a company or just you and if you do how far do you travel to cut trees

[@Human1337]

I don't, I'm just a climber for Hansens enviornmental services.

[@tonybailey4949]

Human ok

[@MaynardFreek]

Hi Human, John here. I appreciate your videos! Off topic question about chainsaws and rebuilding carbs. I recently took my 15 year old Poulan Pro 260 to pro shop to get it running after letting it sit several years and was told parts were no longer available which was a lie. I found all the parts and put it back together. One thing I mistakenly done was set the metering lever a tad too high. Back story - Because I was told parts weren't available I purchased a new Echo CS-400, pulled the limiter caps, set the idler, low and high screws properly and it's a wonderful saw. Concerning the Poulan, after my mistake and the low and high screw adjustments that bitch runs a tad better than my new Echo. What are your thoughts? Does these manufacturers also lean out these saws with the metering settings?

[@Human1337]

I honestly couldn't say, not into the technical side of things that far to give you an answer that has any credibility.

[@steppoffaith8426]

Buddy the limmiter caps or there for durability. Nothing to do with high performance. New saw needs broke in before it really peaks in power. But your saw your warrenty. My saws only have 90 days warrenty so I make sure I break them in and keep them maintained. Over look spelling lol.

[@rossharrison5981]

Having spent a lifetime in forestry and tree surgery, I find your working practices extreamly frightening to say the least. But then that's my opinion and pleased there's an ocean between us for safety sake.

[@gregbrown9271]

Corey your killing it today watch out for spring backs when in bucket 👍👍👍

[@sheriakers6418]

Sooooo..... how many huskys are you adding to your arsenal?

[@edstuff1198]

Nice work Human, I think you are getting the hang of it! ;-)

[@watchthe1369]

Hmmm...... a Husqe feels so much like a skill that you work the wrong controls..... Does that reverse?

[@steppoffaith8426]

Pretty good job buddy. You know me Mr constructive criticism. But your stumps and hinges looked good for most part buddy. I have seen lots improvement in last few months in your felling. Run those huskys much you wont go back to stihl. I own and run both. Husky out cut cc for cc all brands. But stihl is a smoother heavier saw. Not a fan of m-tronic type saws. Have ran 661 still love the 660 they are more tunable for me. And husky I own most the 300 series saws but run several 445' which is best saw for money. Have 353, 345's and then jump to the 372's and 395's. These are saws I use in my buisness. Then I like running the 266 and 288 huskys very peppy. Few things I would do different in the roping but I wasn't there to know whole situation. But with experiance and paying attention to, and determining all factors on each job you will be on way to being tree man. Don't take me wrong. I have 3 young boys ages 11, 13,14 that work with me every day for last 5 years a and I am negative Nancy but that's how you learn. Not downing but constructing. It's how you take it bro. Be safe.

[@gunnarschutz7675]

George Stepp I don't like the mtronic. never ran an autotune either. I prefer tuning my own saw. own all stihl now but been debating a 395 or 660. sounds like I might give the 395 a shot

[@steppoffaith8426]

gunnar schutz 395 is king of power saws. I own both stihl and husky. Got 372 that have million feet on it still looks runs great.

[@steppoffaith8426]

Kevin Noll I have ran them all. Service is big thing. But i do my own work they only have 90 day warrenty on commerciasl saws any way. I test lots of saws in my buisness. Just preferance to me they are both great brands pros and cons on the different size saws. That's why I pick and choose the cc range on them. 461 won't out cut 372 stock for stock and is heavier. Power to weight 372. I pulled new 661 against new 372 20" full comp 372 honest by noticeable difference. But 24" went other way narrowly. In red oak.

[@gunnarschutz7675]

Kevin Noll I have 2 461 and a 261. I bought my second 461 because the 462 came out and didn't want that mtronic

The thing that I like about Stihl saws is that all the saws have 2 piston rings vs the husquvarna saws that some have 2 and some have 1

That's not a bad thing tho.

[@lucasaccount573]

Do you prefer working out of a bucket or tying off

[@Human1337]

Hate bucket work

[@tymesho]

Corey, from experience: PLEASE be careful pulling up on 'hangers'. Pulling from above gets your body in a position that lends to lower back strains. Even smaller ones can hurt you. It's happened to me twice, for whatever reason. You'll come down unable to stand straight, and it's a major bitch for 2-3 weeks!

[@ivanhamlyn]

[@aloberdorf4579]

as a side note...if you need a hobby.....take yer Husky...K&N Stack air filter, pull the jug,.... Dremel polish the intake and exhaust ports, double port the muffler and go up one step on the rim sprocket and a semi-skip tooth chain...kinda like Gorilla Beer...two bottles and ya feel like King Kong........cheap soup job but amazing results....also use about one ounce sea foam per gallon in gas mix....Essential Lube if you can find it......adds 100's of hours to saw's life....once a month use Super clean on the outer head...spray on...let set 3 or 4 minutes and hose off well......saw will never heat up.....heat kills !~!

[@aloberdorf4579]

Right on , good to see you back in action bud

[@FishFind3000]

Husky doesn’t make to bad of a saw. It’s just like ford v Chevy or bmw v Mercedes. You won’t go wrong with any of them it’s just personal preference.

[@frogcassady]

FishFind3000 the Lowe’s huskies are made by polyan. They aren’t that amazing but their pro line of stuff is awesome. There’s just so many more Stihl dealers around.

[@samuelluria4744]

I used to run Huskies, back up until like 2006(8?) was probably the last time I owned one...but these days, they have like 13 different on/off-switch configurations....and that don't bode well for a knucklehead like me...

[@jpoorr9973]

395xp Simply the Best!

[@jpoorr9973]

the 395xp is the only big saw You'll Ever Need I run a 24 or a 36-inch bar once you use one you won't want to use any another big saw

[@samuelluria4744]

What's wrong with an 066, 660, 084, 088, 880, 090??? They make them for a reason. I've seen people saying that you'll never need that, but I have personally used my 088/880's many, many times, and yeah, my 660 would have done it, but wood that's 70" thick - I want my 880, even if it's relatively soft, like Tulip, Ash, or Maple. Shoot, even if it's only 45" or 55" thick, but White Oak, or the like... I want the big saw. Especially for ripping/quartering.

[@greatitbroke]

Cory on some of your nitches you cut the angle cut up some of them down. Is there a reason for doing it either way? Just wondering if its a get bored thing or is there a reason one over the other?

[@steppoffaith8426]

Greg Dent deff a reason. Notch is pointing down the tree will come off the front of the stump. This notch is used out west more in logging but frequently in residential where its close to a building or structure where you wont stem, or tree to come off the front of stunp. Used a lot with trees out west where taller and tops arnt as broad and softer big grain wood. On this notch you make back cut 2 inches above notch for holding wood. On this notch the tree or stem will come of stump sooner as The faces make contact sooner or more verticle. The notch that points up is used where there is not as many structures and is good in timber cutting where there is much broader and super heave tops and the tree or stem can come off back of stump and come unhung easier and skidder dosent have to work around stumps. On this notch you make back cut 1 to 2 inches below the face cut and the tree or stem will come more horizontal before faces make contact. This notch is better for hardwood Vaneer logs where it dosent pull plugs and splinters as bad as the Humboldt or down pointing notch. In short but there is others pros and cons on different wood types.

[@steppoffaith8426]

Greg Dent but in the trees its whole different ball game lol. Would love to enlighten you but me not being very computer or phone savy. My pointer fingers tired.

[@steppoffaith8426]

Brian Kennedy hay buddy I agree it bothers me to. How he lived I don't care of he lives at home or what ever. I have ben on my own sence 18 had first kid at 21, have four great kids that work with me every day I in my tree service dance they was old enough to walk literally. But it's my way if life. I see lots.petople that live off their parents, well I don't have any or grand parents. Raised by single dad that past in 08. This business I am lot like you I take it serious to many dope heads and guys who wrork for real tree service for month then try it with pick up and ladders. Which is fine if you know what your doing and had to start over from scratch. But Cory if that's his name as far as tree work he has lot to learn and that's what he has ben doing. I have made negative comments on his videos. He admits when he's wrong and dosent make excuses. Which to me is keys to being a succes at any ocupation. But tell him his falts and hope he takes it. You want to see some one who dosent have business with saw and has. thousand excuses check out (the other guys tree service).

[@steppoffaith8426]

Make it clear I am not a trole. My boy introduced me to you tube with ch ad in saw fails and ideots with chain saws lol.

[@steppoffaith8426]

Brian Kennedy lol I agree. But I know I'm the man and every one who works or watches me work knows the same. I am not on you tube but I don't care to be neather. Overt one looks at bucking Billy Ray like a king get the gullet who cares about the top plate lol . He's a average tree feller so many that are better. My thing is i know exactly what I am doing and why no guess work. I know all about saws and chains not. I was not showed you go through this motion. I know tooth geometry and how it affects the chip so I can change the geometry of my tooth for soft or hard woods and chain length and type to get my saws to petform at there max. I know trees species and how the fibers react to on differebt notches. I determan all the factors in just few min that affect my job or task. Then know the ones i control and ones i cant. I controle the out come. Yes accidents happen but its more carelessness and overlooked factors. There is some topps on here. Like hotsaw101. Man knows his saws and timber very good. Logger wade is just like me love the guy. I worked for Asplund then my uncle retired from them then started our own local tree service. But I grew up in woods cutting timber which I still do in small tracks.

The 395xp is a great saw love mine but the 3120xp is still the ultimate beast

[@steppoffaith8426]

Ya its a monster of course but won't out cut the 395. It turns more rpms and has the grunt to go with it. But for milling or crazy long bars your right. But 36" won't hang.

[@jpoorr9973]

First flew a bucket at 15 the key is knowing what leads you're going to remove first and set up accordingly you may have to do additional setups but you should never have a limb hit brush or come close to your boom that just comes with experience I've blown big tops with a 65 candlesticked you better know what you doing you can get hurt or killed a lot easier in a bucket truck then if you were climbing

[@steppoffaith8426]

Yes way more people die in bucket trucks. Get care less. I have seen seen some really good tree guys end their careers and lives. I don't use them.

[@jpoorr9973]

George Stepp you got that right thank God I've never seen anybody get killed but I did see a buddy of mine about 20 years ago break his ribs when the cable snapped and the upper boom Came Crashing Down from about 30 feet thank God he had his harness on and clipped in or else it could have been a lot worse I've been flying for over 30 years and still sometimes forget to clip my harness in I'll get so focused on the setup and what I'm going to cut first sometimes I'll hop in it with the harness on and just forget to clip it in
