Our First Ever Pruning Video! Big Seattle Silver Maple Prune!

[@brandonswan9247]

Wow, more Caleb. I love the way he narrates while he works.

[@danh6746]

Bout to pitch the catfish idea to my wife. Wish me luck!

[@nicksmy2405]

Dan H, just checking in on you. Making sure your wife hasn’t beaten you to death with a catfish. 😂😂

[@Sanus180]

Also add a cat in there hahaha🐈🐈🐈

[@TimberTrainer]

@@Sanus180 The frogs feed the fish, and the fish feed the cat.

[@gordo3di]

Catfish taste great

[@ericn9175]

My son Nicolas loves working with you guys and I am so proud of him. You are all an awesome group of men. They don’t make em like that anymore.

[@h418lfc]

Great job guys, a wealth of knowledge all in a tree with more re directs than an adult website 😉

[@nayster0814]

Bwahahaha hahaha love the comment

[@braidenbower1336]

“Single bucket technique”😂😂

[@brucehadley69]

Need more stories of your upbringing after hearing that catfish tale

[@TimberTrainer]

Pro tip for Caleb: When grabbing climbing gear with a handsaw, pinch the blade in your hand, and use the rubber handle to retrieve your gear. The handle is more gentle on your ropes, and grabs carabiners much easier. Many handles have built in hooks that are especially useful. Beware the sharp teeth of course.

[@guiltyoftreesoneastsidetre4792]

Good idea! I never thought of that!

[@Mando_9833]

Watching your vids is one of the most calming things I’ve ever experienced

[@thomasschaumann2590]

Hi there it would be good if you could show feedback from your customers to get their perspective of what has been done. Like that video from 2 weeks ago Cracking Cedar. The customers reaction was priceless. If you could do more of that it would help explain the customers side of removal.

[@guiltyoftreesoneastsidetre4792]

Great feedback!

[@kenshores9900]

Enjoy watching your videos for knots, rope work , chain saws and tree cutting! Chop on!

[@gregmackintosh9181]

i love how well the tree was trimmed but was the most complicated tree trimming i have ever seen in my life

[@nicksmy2405]

More of this please. Great to watch and the banter you guys have is just awesome. Great job 👏

[@Raekonn]

I really love your channel and I think we need way more pruning videos. I think many of us would love to learn more about how to prune their trees well. Thank you for the great content!

[@MrYAMAHA32177]

Great video guys, the dealership I worked at for 20 years in a little Florida town was sold and the new owners cut all the big oak trees down to give the building more exposure from the road. The trees were healthy and offered a shady area to park and avoid the brutal Florida sun. Now when you drive by all you see is this big white building and black top parking lot that sticks out like a sore thumb. I was also surprised at just how many of the local residents were upset with this decision themselves.

[@dianncharlan5648]

Love how all of you have a sense of humor! The banter between all of you is priceless! In 2 days of binge watching your videos I have learned how to make a salad burrito, where to hide boogers, how to kill a garden Gnome and how to raise catfish in a bathtub! I also learned a lot about trees that I never knew! Great videos men! Keep up the good work!

[@adrianwahnon5106]

I loves your videos, I’m a upcoming climber myself down in Fayetteville NC and I’ve learned so much from you in how to approach trees and how to play it safe. You guys do a great job!!

[@kingmakespeaker1402]

I love you

[@guiltyoftreesoneastsidetre4792]

Love you too! 😆

[@NakEdits]

More pruning videos please enjoy learning from yous!! 🇦🇺

[@chamness964]

Man its always great to see guys that work and work well together. Awesome!!

[@Chainsaw-ASMR]

Why is watching y’all work so relaxing? It also looks like your team is enjoying themselves. 😎

[@redmondjp]

When you treat your employees well, and the company/boss has a really cool attitude and work culture, then this is what you get. Plus, they are doing very dangerous work, so working a bit slower, taking time to think out the what-ifs before you make a cut or climb, results in a much safer work space.

[@budlvr]

Really enjoyed the dual dialogue (and the trash talk) of the different ways you had to prune this tree. Learned a lot, and that's why I'm here and watch ! Caleb does need a little more bush !

[@bill6390]

Oh God, just what I've been waiting for ... some of that sweet, sweet pruning action!

[@chaseaspen8904]

I can’t stand pruning. I’m removals all the way but I understand it’s a part of the arborist life so I’m glad at least one of the big channels puts out a pruning video lmao. I don’t think I’ve ever seen another big KZbinr to a prune lmaoooooo.

[@catbertz]

Aaaah I want to watch the next one NOW! 😁

[@jacobk75]

I love that helment with the lego face, it is just amazing

[@johng1077]

Ah yes the SBT single bucket technique world renowned and extensive training, well over 100 hours.

[@madmex2k]

My mom always griped when my brothers came home with loads of fish because they would dump them in the tub until they were all scaled and cleaned, and a couple of times it was the next day before she had her tub back. This was not good in a 1 bathroom home. I learned as kid if I was gonna eat fish or go fishing, I needed to know how to clean and scale the fish as well, especially if I didn't participate in the catching at all. Mom and Dad were the only ones who never did the cleaning. Parents Exemption Rule.

[@DragonflyPrincess]

I love your videos, please keep them coming!!

[@steven.j.heaton1850]

Great to see you lot leaving something alive. Really enjoyed the tech side both the pruning and the rope work 👍

[@derekbyers5096]

I cannot get enough of you guys! Great work!

[@260bill260]

Wow that’s a great story about the catfish I thought I had some good stories of my younger upbringing but you beat me as the best story . congratulations good job I really enjoy your videos thanks

[@shanewalsh3681]

Calebs presence on the channel is major potential, dudes got the big brain stuff

[@markp.9707]

Oh my left nut!!! The pain is coming in waves. Too funny nice job on the pruning guys.

[@jasonmorton3117]

We use the PackTalk Bold's too when we are out on Disaster Relief jobs and it is always a hassle to pair up all of our radios, so that part of the video really made me laugh!

[@ttrguy9952]

Cardo loyalist here!!! I've had ALL the Sena crap and they are worthless. We use them while riding our bikes. Cardo is waterproof also and Sena is NOT! What good is a com unit if you can't use it while riding in rain??? Been using the Bolds and the Slims for 5 years without a failure. Once paired with a Cardo it's forever.

[@fabianaruiz913]

Ohhh que altura !! Cuanta adrenalina 😱. No podría hacerlo. Geniales los videos!!

[@countryboyfiftyfive]

Man, y’all look like an awesome team to work with!

[@naohmayode9213]

Are you ever gonna do a video where you just answer questions? I’d love to know how you came to be a tree feller.

[@Billster1955]

Nice work fella's. I hope Caleb's knee ascender is gonna be ok LOL. I'm getting into solo tree work via DRS and later 0n SRS. Would love to see more of these type of videos.

[@blakedelay149]

I've always been scared to drop trees myself especially the ones that need to be dropped but watching you and your videos made me confident enough to go and do it, safely of coarse, and today not 10 minuets ago I dropped my first tree that is taller than 8 feet, eyeing it down it looks about 45ish feet, and I just wanted to hop on and say thank you! I'm 18 and have been watching you off and on since 14 so from the bottom of my heart thank you!

[@hanleyglowka3352]

Hi I woch your videos everyday tell the team I said hi and I woch thor videos everyday I love you guys I love the video

[@Pharphette]

I saw that legoman hand wave!

[@bobfotoples6950]

Where you're all standing around in a tight circle waiting for everything to sync reminds me of the Eagles before a show, where they cluster just like you guys, to harmonize together.

[@codygilbert117]

Great job guys definitely would like more videos like this

[@TheOneinjun]

I'm really Glad you made this video ! I have a Cherry Tree in the back yard that has to be cut back ! it's about 40 ft. tall and about 30" at the butt, It grew from a seed one of the kids spit out about 25 yuears ago so it doesn't bare fruit BUT does have seeds that grow trees where ever birds seem to drop them now .

[@kcsanson4216]

Another sweet one ! Great job guys

[@garymoore8711]

What a great camaraderie you guys have!

[@grantarbor3319]

Looks like the trees been topped in the past, maybe even multiple times….rough

[@KellenS128]

"This is Nick...sorry diversity" freaking hilarious 🤣😂🤣 and awesome to see someone leave the real joking around good coworkers do with one another

[@benjobello]

Great video guys!!

[@rickypepper6188]

I’m a lawn guy from Florida. Love watching this channel

[@beavis4play]

that's a beautiful silver maple. and wow, are those small yards!

[@BobWes251]

I guess you could say this video really branches out from the regularly scheduled programming...

[@Chainsaw-ASMR]

And the quality dadjokes keep on coming 🤣🤣🤣

[@salmqN]

looool

[@jordano8624]

You have mentioned it in a few videos such as the one that fell on someone’s house in the snow storm and the cedar that split but never gone into detail regarding pruning and wind resistance. I live on the east coast where the hardwoods have massive canopies. The look most folks go for is to remove most lower branches leaving the largest unions and trim up any growth to 50+ ft. All while not removing any horizontal spread. Are oaks, elms etc the same as cedars or firs where it is beneficial to have some weight on the tree lower to the ground? Seems like this would create more stress on the trunk during a storm.

[@williammaxwell1919]

Caleb coiled the rope in a way I've never seen before... cool

[@jedimaster197]

Your videos are Informative and interesting great content on tree care, tree cuts, chainsaw & chain maintenance, keep it up.👍 Hope to see a Gulity of Treeson logo shirt some day..

[@robertengel2635]

Have you ever spiked out of a tree on a free climb (not tied in) only using your spikes and flip line?

[@jordanmarg1791]

"Trees in the woods dont need trimming" thats because they are constantly battling the shadows of other trees. They literally evolved to grow in the forest, they go crazy when its just a single tree in a back yard.

[@treemands]

Aaaand...they go crazy when they are SILVER maples...the rat of the tree kingdom.

[@rackets001]

I told my son he needs to work with you guys. Great team environment, really comes through in your videos! As soon as he can sprout some facial hair I'm sending him your way!

[@ДмитрийГородничин-в1к]

Очень нравится как вы слажено работаете.Спасибо за видео.

[@jonathanlanglois2742]

My electrical utility is rather savage with trees when pruning. You should see some of the work they've done.

[@jdcriswell2499]

As always great video Professional brilliant craftsman with a entertaining view and i usually learn something... be proud....

[@rwc2504]

Good video. Cool clips at the end.

[@d.kuczewski2824]

our first pruning were a thumbs up from this girl. my carabiner is still stuck on my rope< (jake it's not my pink ) holds 150 lbs. it is bright metallic green, you will see (voir) it

[@yrdGBA]

Freakin love the Catfish story!

[@idela32]

I guess I'm kind of old school. I used to use a throw line. Set my climb line and safely foot lock up. But my pole pruner was about 15 feet long so I'd use it to advance my rope up higher and use a double crotch method. Gary Abrojena taught me that back in 96. Hahaha. There are lots of new tools /toys out there these days.

[@jacobbishop686]

kool video!!! kool gang!!!!u,,u guys r always in a GOOD MOOD!!!!!!!

[@donnierobertson3088]

Nice job and video like always

[@milesboehmer9969]

This Is fun ,it’s like playing where’s Waldo !

[@XXNerdzillaXX]

I miss doing this kind of work... Although, I never used ropes when I did it.

[@jhans3278]

Thanks. Enjoyed the video. How close was the truck boom and/or you to the power lines. Looked close to me.

[@colsinclair7793]

Mum was think what a catch😂 that's class what's for dinner' it's in the bath;)

[@danachappell3861]

Oh boys.. hitting your left nut must have been painful.. the funniest thing about that is I didn't feel a thing. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤪🤪🤪 I like these pruning vlogs, so more would be appreciated. Thanks for sharing your adventures in the branches!!

[@rickrothstein7932]

30:27... Bet you regret not having that safety meeting now.. huh Jake.. lol

[@jonschaefer1463]

Well catfish need a bath too. Lol. Good job guy's

[@d.kuczewski2824]

I have a lilac in the back of my house, i will always leave my back slider open in case arbortechs climbers (you jake, eastside tree ) & your team of arborhrists, techs be safe if you find where i live, there are tree louses, woodticks, i am behind today in the mowing & landscaping, I find it'a 2 humid. hope you guys have a safe & good DAy

[@michaelpcooksey5096]

Fish farm in basement with horse trough might be easier? Harder to direct frogs though

[@gocoastgaurd721]

How do you guys avoid a mess of bar oil when keeping saws in your trucks?

[@gageb9592]

Really enjoyed this Video, Caleb is a excellent climber ! Nice single bucket techniques as well Treeson 🤣

[@mitchc6201]

Love the video! What shoulder harness/suspenders is he using with the sequoia? Thank you!

[@shanesouza4303]

Great job educating and informing. Tnx for taking us along. Become one with the bucket you must. Go home with wood chips you will. 😜

[@guiltyoftreesoneastsidetre4792]

Haha 💯

[@julianalderson3938]

Nice. N nice ya cate bout the health of the tree. N not cash like some cheers

[@josephoneil3093]

Silver Maples ride the short yellow bus in the Maple family. They’re a junk tree here in Indiana.

[@oldmanfred8676]

I knew you were from the Mid West, just like me.

[@chrisflannery5546]

Really like how calub explains things!!! He should make his own youtube.

[@BG-vq9fd]

It seems like there are no tree pruners in my area. Please keep educating me.

[@christophercastor6666]

Do y’all Pollard anything? I think it would be a great addition to the channel for you to explain pruning techniques; especially ones designed to minimize damage to the tree like the Pollard technique. Awesome video as always!

[@salmqN]

Great video, good stuff

[@bucketinabag]

If you park your lift closer to and also under the canopy, it’s much easier to “buzz” the branches also less set ups :

[@leonardvirtue5753]

Nice.😆 😆.💪 mate

[@scotthagapac]

Very informative!

[@delanos53]

When I was a kid we had a paint we put in cuts. Do they do that any more? It was nasty stuff.

[@justinsnyder6256]

Still gonna bush out. Its a massive bush lol. Great work! It looks like a tree again. For now lol

[@juliadougherty1228]

Where do I get a smiley face screen?? Love it!

[@alanamos5158]

On #5 tree topping now too. In my yard..I need to order longer spurs, hope you can help man I have Buckingham?, I'll try to find the #s

[@AP2020_Outdoors]

@Guilty of Treeson @ Eastside Tree Works great story on raising catfish in the "John".....what?????, that's normal!!!! RIGHT???? ........................ LOL. Half-Asian groundman = HEY I RESEMBLE that remark.....go get 'em my Asian brother!!! Jake, btw check your spelling on ASAIN..... That's cool that you are showing a bonafide pruning job. I have a silver maple in my yard in Ohio....however, it definitely is NOT as 'spread-out' like that one. Gotta' LOVE Jake countering with his "single bucket" technique!!!!! That's is ABSOLUTELY crazy how Caleb is maneuvering within the confines of the tree UP/DOWN/SIDEWAYS.....HAHAHAHA = THE SHAKEWEIGHT....myyyyy you have a mighty strong grip there young man??? LOL

[@guiltyoftreesoneastsidetre4792]

Haha a tribute to my ignorance 😂

[@BobLobsiger]

silver maples are considered trash trees in the midwest. They are the first to come down during heavy wind or ice storms.

[@oldmanfred8676]

Agreed!

[@guiltyoftreesoneastsidetre4792]

I did not know that!

[@BobLobsiger]

@@guiltyoftreesoneastsidetre4792 I planted a sugar maple and a red maple and my cross the street neighbor planted Silver maples. About 15 years ago. His maples are twice the size of mine but his is already shedding branches and having issues with them. They grow fast and look great for about 25 years. Then they start to weaken and become dangerious. Then the bad starts to happen. We had a ice storm back in 97 in October. Most of the trees in the old part of town (Omaha) were old silver maples. It took two weeks to get power restored. If I owned that house I'd remove that tree. I'd guess its 50-60 years old and will only get worse. Read what is written on Wikipedia en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acer_saccharinum Some towns have banned them.

[@AustenMoon]

Hey when a good opportunity comes up, can you do a Japanese Maple prune video?

[@guiltyoftreesoneastsidetre4792]

Absolutely :)

[@AustenMoon]

Can you start including how long the job took?

[@aaronsrailways3630]

Comeback I miss the Banging treeson vids at east Side tree works

[@kingmakespeaker1402]

I like wood, because I make speakers

[@bretthuet1396]

we need more stories like the catfish one...

[@tazzmanbees9832]

Jake I have a question does it not matter what time of the year you prune a maple?
