Sargents Inc. Logging pulling a Dangerous Redwood in Humboldt County

[@christophercollins3460]

Always a pleasure to see the efforts you choose to make sure you are on target. Nice work Jack

[@hotsaws101]

Thank you.

[@jacobmitzkus2530]

Great video Jack! That is some real world application right there. I continue to learn a ton from watching your stuff. Thanks for taking the time! God bless you today.

[@MartyInTheWoods]

Now THAT was quite a trapeze-act! Start to finish. Nobody injured or worse - good! Stay healthy and safe. Thanks for sharing.

[@ootsam]

I love the sound coming from that saw

[@phillipcabaniss5028]

I love how you use your wedge and axe to determine if the tree is getting ready to go the way you want it!

[@stevet8121]

I logged old growth Humboldt Redwoods back in the 60's. We used climbers to rig the pull trees. The excavator is a lot easier. Nice work Jack.

[@hotsaws101]

Steve hi. Much easier for sure. Can't get nearly as high for the bad leaners though. Those still require a set of spurs. Not to many now-a-days that need a "pull machine" from those days either...... Thanks for watching.

[@Dyno625]

Excellent work as always Jack. Thanks for sharing!

[@SMJ95]

I really liked how you cleaned up the near side corner on the face cut to make it just right! All Pro cutting for sure-Nice Work!!

[@archersanonymous3003]

Great work. If that tree was hanging over a road in the UK the Health & Safety police would close the road down for 50 miles in both directions. They'd then have a team of 20 guys standing around all day getting in the way of anyone wanting to get the job done.

[@elizabethreed2945]

Dang it just as it was falling .... a commercial! LOL it’s a circus indeed killer video. Love it

[@speedandmarine9066]

You weren't kidding, that was right on the road! Looks like that outfit has a pretty good crew and some decent equipment too.

[@openstationloggingkevinbak4625]

Nice when everything goes right and everyone is safe good job guys 👍

[@danhargrave1811]

Pin-point accuracy, as always. Good job Jack.

[@hotsaws101]

Dan hi. That's what takes me sooooo long so times to get the face in. Usually trying to miss something out in the flight path or landing strip. Thanks for watching.

[@Woodman_Custom_Sawing]

Excellent job and nice video. Love these kinds of videos.

[@kbert63]

Sargents are good people. Worked with them many times.

[@hotsaws101]

kbert63 hi. Simply the best! Thanks for watching.

[@stevencroon]

Your the man who can, a little machine help was nice too.

[@buillioncubes]

Holy crap, was wondering the first time he went up what if the grapple let go! Good thing it had excellent timing and chucked him close to the ground ;)

[@robertplant9694]

Irresponsible and a liability to the company

[@thomasmach7655]

great to see taking your time you have to

[@hotsaws101]

My saw-weet time. The road was not closed - a mistake could have been catastrophic. Thanks for watching.

[@ryananderson5946]

Thanks for the video

[@woos31]

alright Jack, back in the shade reduction. Seems like things gotta get a littke western now and then to make sure yet ticker is free of clogs and such. Beautifully done pard, safe cuttin

[@brad7989]

Awesome video jack! Look like a good group of guys ur working with. 44 was gettin with it too!

[@hotsaws101]

My insane-o 064 here. 3' bar. Thanks for watching.

hotsaws101 haha wow, sorry typo there!

[@2009glassman]

great show!

[@allenhuling598]

Great to see some new vids from you, Jack, always a pleasure to watch. Inherently dangerous work, requiring MUCH skill. You do it well...Lord Bless!

[@darrydixon]

great job Jack

[@johnlincicum6390]

That's insane! Wow!

[@outinthewood3578]

Nice work Jack, you had a great looking day with no wind always a plus ! If you get a chance I've just put up a edit from Husqvarna Ireland that hadn't been used up till now and the 375 stars !!

[@hotsaws101]

Dave hi. Did check it out. You are a celebrity now!!!! Super Saw-Weet. Anyone notices that the saw is an anomaly?

[@outinthewood3578]

Thanks for looking Jack, I'm sure if too many folk noticed the "odd" saw !!

[@austindenotter19]

I notice how difficult it is to walk around such massive stumps. doesnt give very good escape plan while saving your saw. I do use the humboldt cut once in a while now that i understand what its for. mostly when cutting log trees rather than pulpwood. nice job cutting.

[@yup.imdave.9345]

Beautiful

Where was this at? I know the sargents they are good friends of ours.

Great falling video as always jack was that an insanoized 064 you were using to fall with

Yes, my insane-o 064. Thanks for watching.

savty work?

[@steppoffaith8426]

I was wondering if you have done a 660 clone and sthil ms 660 compareson. A guy come by my shop wanting to sell one trying pass it of as sthil 660.

[@hotsaws101]

George hi. No I have not. I have serious reservation about the bearings. Additionally, I have used the mic on all the cylinder assemblies from customers and my own testing. The plating can be a thin as .001 (WAY to thin). The bores can be way outside of tolerance limits, they can be hour glass shaped, and elliptical. Some are all four. Have yet to see one that did not qualify for at least two of the four. A fan of the oem versions..... Thanks for watching.

[@arborist460]

Was that a 064?

[@maninaboysbody]

I noticed it too! thought jack was a die-hard husky junkie! lol

[@hotsaws101]

@@hotsaws101 hey Jack, have you got a psy-ko SS recipe for the 064 as well? I've watched so many videos of yours new and old that I can't remember if you have or not.

Oh shit. 7:40. Could have been a ugh. Lol.

[@TheyForcedMyHandLE]

I know you already know, but be careful out there boys. In my family alone 3 have been killed by heavy equipment. One crushed, one electrocuted, and one drown. Safety standards have progressed since their time for good reason.

[@devondunkle1063]

Learn to use throw ball method for setting lines of various applications. Fall off that machine like another statistic on the dripline.

[@alexarchambault5081]

jesus, that fall coulda have been terrible.

[@landfillrat7286]

Invite Buckin Billy Ray Smith down he would love to work with them big trees >>

[@dalewinn5686]

I dont think Buckin is gonna teach this guy anything. he's a pretty dam good Faller (cutter).

[@MatthewWilson83]

They'd be a great pair to see interact with each other. They are both high energy, positive guys and can run a saw with the best of them.

[@jservice6594]

Hi to Mike.

[@roxteddy9189]

That’s a lot of fucking around for one tree

[@peterwill3699]

Lucky you didn't have your hand on a pinch point when cutter opened and you fell off.

[@hotsaws101]

Or maybe after working around equipment your entire life, your hand doesn't get placed in a pinch point on purpose. Thanks for watching.

[@laddhooks]

Thumbs up for 5:00 .

This is actually the OSHA approved method for setting an aerial choker. 😂

Seriously?

[@maxhole2]

@@robertplant9694 , you notice the laughing face after my comment. But Jack is actually one of the best timber fallers in the world.

[@robertplant9694]

@@maxhole2 I don’t understand what you’re saying. Jack is a great faller, but if the grapple did that 2 seconds prior, that guy would have fallen from much farther and probably been seriously injured. Just wanna see everyone make it out of the woods man

@@robertplant9694 , it was a sarcasm joke. Not OSHA approved at all. LOL!

[@largerooster2059]

That's a great way to get killed or seriously injured ? I know you guys are strong and fearless but it will only take one slip up ?

[@EddieSchirmer]

holy crap... he almost brained himself on that metal bit on his way down... good thing to mention on the safety talk... next time, it could be a good thing to use a couple of your strong straps to secure the grapple hook on the machine. (its what i would do in that situation) i don't know about using a harness, but it could have gone either way if you used one. but of course, I'm sure you guys learned a lesson there so i don't think i would need to tell ye eh haha... just as an observer of course, and not an experiences individual in tree work, i do believe that we can never underestimate our safety while on a job or in life in general. i am fascinated by this type of work, among many other things, but one thing I've learned is that you can never do anything without first knowing what can go wrong and what to do if it does. be safe guys.

[@hotsaws101]

Thinking the guy at the controls should have hit the "pinch button" for the grapples in between trips. Bleed off.... Thanks for watching.

[@EddieSchirmer]

aye sir, it would be a good pre-caution. and maybe some straps for extra security. i can tell your machines get a lot of use. especially around those huge trees. I've always enjoyed walking and or driving around and through those woods. only been a couple times though, but the shear size of those trees makes every trip worth going.

[@tonylovisone5394]

@@hotsaws101 Hello sir how are you have a quick question for you you have a lot of knowledge love your videos have a 390 XP was wondering if I can convert it into a 395 XP or what I can do to pump this 390 XP up bought it from a dude with a scored piston he lied to me told me it was in good condition when I was able to get it home and pull the exhaust off of it and check it out it was nasty and destroyed any help is greatly appreciated I have been trying to get one of these chainsaws for over 10 years now I have one and it is blowing up I don't want to rebuild this stock that's for sure anything you can do to help me pump this bad girl up is greatly appreciated!

No way, no how any contractor on my tree farm is gonna ride on a machine like that.

Lol instead of opening the door and asking if the guys alright he instead defends himself saying he didnt touch anything. Theyre too many people on earth who only care of themselves.

Spent most of the time cutting air. Love the escape route. That shit will get you sooner or later. Why not just clear it away instead of leavi g it hanging there.
