Typical Tree Service Job (mistakes included)

[@longlowdog]

I love the fact you refer to your company as we not me, I or mine. Making your staff feel included makes a massive difference to morale. It's always great to see the guys smiling and chatting to you as a friend as well as an employer. You deserve all that providence brings your way. Regards from Scotland.

[@eddiephillips2000]

Would love to had these guys to work with myself! Might would have made the tree industry a longer career than it was for me. #StaySafe #StayHumble #EnjoyTheRide

[@johns3106]

Yep…it used to drive me crazy when my old boss would say, “I bought this truck…”, when I was the one who found it and suggested it as a good buy; or “I did that work…”, when he wasn’t even on the job site; or when he referred to the crew as “My boys…” which I always found SUPER derogatory!;…or any time he acted like he was the only one with a vested interest in making sure the company was successful!

[@planetofthederps4490]

Young kid has no idea how lucky he is to be learning and working with a team like that!! Soak it up young man! Soak it up..i would have loved to been able to start tree work in that environment..🤙✌

[@WillBravoNotEvil]

I'm not so sure about the "no idea" bit. They all seem to reflect the tone of the boss: Calm, self assured, generous spirit.

[@theronwinsby]

Me too! well said!

[@HiLineTree]

Wyatt seems like a fine young man. Eager to learn and ready to make his way in this business. Best of luck to him. Thanks August. 👍

[@tcmtech7515]

Yep, the crooks and criminal operators of the business will do their best to take him out as fast as they can when he gets going on his own. They always do and that's why we have too many bad actors in all areas of the contracting industry now. :(

[@cannonball9478]

Life is a series of knock backs and it’s the ability to take a breath, find some humour and decide to win. Reminds me of the ‘Never Stuck’ video you made. Great work guys and thanks for taking the time to upload the journey. Hi to all subs as well and have a great day.

[@philipcourt1]

Dear August & Team. Hi from across the Pond. I can't tell you how refreshing it is to see you keep your mistakes in, & honestly own up to them! In all my years dealing/ working with 'Timber Men' I can't say I remember anyone owning up in a hurry, & that includes me! So very well done, you are a credit to Arborists & a role model to all those who work in Timber production. As far as Haters & armchair criticizers are concerned, please just ignore them. They ain't worth it. Put them 80+ feet up a dead tree & see what they call you then! They are smart Asses with big mouths, & I bet you they don't work. Thank you so much for your excellent videos when I'm struggling with my Autism & struggling to push away bad thoughts, I watch you & Buckin & self loading timber lorries loading & unloading & taking me back to my young days. I too love it that your boy is with you, let's hope he gets saw chips in his blood like we have doing the job we love. Very Kind regards Philip. West Wales, UK.

[@davidquirk8097]

Always a pleasure watching your videos and really good to see how you bring the younger guys on.

[@expidition07]

August I am a new subscriber to your channel and have really enjoyed watchin several of your older videos. it is very clear to me that you have quite the passion for your trade. Not only that but the respect you give to the team mates that work with you. Also the respect you gave to others in your profession along with the tributes to those who are not with us any more, Thank you so much for the very good videos and comments you have given. I spent my work live working in a coal mine 3500 feet down and 8 miles back in and did not think twice about it but when I see you working in the tops of the trees you work on amazes me. Safety for me was always number one as it is for you and your team. Thank you again and I am looking forward to you and your team doing great work

[@AugustHunicke]

Longwall_18 thank you. Wow, I think I might feel claustrophobic down there. 😬😁

[@Graeme408]

You have a first class team. Nice to see how they work together. Kudos to the Crane operator.

[@treebuzzard5796]

Love your entrance to the property, it's like you were saying'Were here, he's your entrance sign back"..lol..thanks not a mistake, that's making a grand entrance....Love your big boy AX19...way to go.

[@shoehornking]

A number 1 in all categories. Incredible crew. Incredible company.

[@dwaynemadsen964]

I like that you included a time laps of picking up the crane pad. We forget tree work isn't all crane rides and cutting. On an unrelated note, my order is in! Time to move up to a Monkey Beaver Saddle.

[@RichardFreeberg]

Great videos of professional tree work. I love to watch how you solve problem situations. Educational, entertaining and inspiring. Also excellent video production! Thanks August and crew! Keep up the good work and stay safe...

[@mr.b6374]

Your team makes it look so easy! Massive congratulations ! You have definitely educated us! Thank you for your dedication and integrity

[@brianfoster7794]

Dam fine work love watching your videos excellent crew that has bonded well with a completely laid back atmosphere which is great and the young fella definitely feels he is a part of the crew and so relaxed obviously a great company to work for as your all buddies. Regards from the United Kingdom 🇬🇧

[@lumberjaketreeservicellc4002]

The music at 4:53 was a perfect choice. Totally explained the feeling of a perfect pick.

[@jonnsmusich]

A joy to watch. This is dangerous, dirty work. But there is a grace beyond professionalism to how the crew works. You should be proud.

[@treediculous8740]

Congratulations on the new purchase. That thing is a beast! Good job to Wyatt for his first crane pick. What a great crew

[@carlroney1739]

I love watching ... I'm a logger for 10 years now and still learning

[@mblasch]

I honestly dont know why or how I started watching these videos but I can definitely respect the accuracy and skill this takes

[@brucelund5788]

I sittin' here eating lunch and thinking "that's a big chipper, wonder if that's the one they tried out, wonder if they bought it?" and BAM! up pops the answer, funny. It is a beast!

[@brunobarks6544]

Love them dreamy music brother. Lol. You guys are good at what your do. Joy to watch you work. What a team !!

[@customcuts1]

Impressive tree service and super videos. Rainy days I show my crew some of your videos. Thanks for making them.

[@scatoutdebutter]

Way to go Wyatt! Thanks for including mistakes and "background" work.

[@andyd9199]

Videos productions keep getting better and better, thanks guys. Happy holidays- be safe

[@daan740]

Great crew you're working with. You sure can be proud! 😁🌳👍

[@brandonkarhu5599]

"It'll be scared, but it'll be okay..." lol

[@KennysTreeRemoval]

Congrats on the purchase ax19. That thing is a beast. You deserve it brother. Wish you nothing but success and happiness in your life August. - Kenny Sanchez

[@mxcollin95]

You guys are like the “A Team.” Every sketchy plan always works out for you. Only thing missing is you saying “I love it when a plan comes together.”

[@stizacraack9693]

Crazy how cranes just change the game completely, good for ya bro been a long time fan and you teach me something every video

[@tealjacks9125]

Great video ..... The WE not me myself or I shows the good boss you are to your boys working the job ...Nice

[@jxh02]

Maximum respect, for your skills and your philosophy. I just noticed: I'm afraid of heights but haven't had a twinge of that even after watching many hours of your videos, even the ones pointing straight down! It must be that you can inspire confidence, from way up in a tree. Keep going!

[@MsrKSDisque]

You have nice equipment. And skills! So worth the cost.

[@merlenelson4894]

Good looking chipper and a great looking team. (As in both get the work done.) Congrats August, that's a heck of an accomplishment.

[@joshpomponio2993]

Congrats on the new chipper that thing is a stud Glad to see u guys have lots of work be safe fellas

[@jackwood8307]

Had my hands sweating seeing how close to that house they were! Great job!

[@lukesharp3578]

I can only dream of being as knowledgeable and skilled as you. Stay safe.

[@DeezNuts-xo2ee]

Such a great group of guy's and great teacher's as well ✌

[@eucalyptusleemcconnell8314]

Very nice tree cut video thanks for sharing mate you're the man

[@patkarlsson]

Nice that you let the new guys try new things and improve! Still have cranework on my Bucketlist!

[@HiVizCamo]

Music at 4:51, I'm reminded of the TPB opening theme here. Well done, great editing choice.

[@sonnyblazer5504]

WOW! You & 'crew' really have your act together. That is ONE CHIPPER for sure! Costs lots of money to get the job done right. Impressed at how you teach the crew - makes for a super team. Stay safe all. Sonny (CT)

[@mike99ify]

Great job Wyatt!!! Awesome stuff right there August. I have a feeling he’s going to be a hell of a tree guy.

[@kevimc]

LOVE THE TEAMWORK very professional

[@brianfloyd8033]

Nice job as usual! Ax19 beast for sure . Congratulations on all ur help and equipment it sure makes things smooth

[@darrelljohnston8676]

That is one hell of a chipper.

[@videolabguy]

If I were 30 years younger, I'd love to work for you. Great job. Great videos!

[@barrystrout1259]

I liked how you busted out the piano mid-video just because🐑💨

[@65BAJA]

I say you could have had that sign down in one pick.

[@AugustHunicke]

hahahah ya

[@NHlocal]

😆😅😂

[@samuelluria4744]

(but only with extra ballast.)

[@cannonball9478]

Majestic 🏗 picks and music 💯

[@dan-dan-da-treeman]

Very awesome 👍. Thanks guys. Good job! Well done new guy 😁.

[@gregbrown9271]

Nice job wyatt and that chipper is a monster nice job guys 🇺🇸💪

[@kevincorbin6273]

That chipper is no joke, nice rig!

[@Rick-se5qm]

Nice work.👍 One would need a second mortgage for service like this in the DC Metro area.

[@dsabre4990]

Reward aptitude with opportunity. That's a great boss building into others.

[@NHlocal]

"A day in the life of....." Another great video showing what a great crew you have August. Especially showing Wyatt and his first crane pick. I hope to get my "first crane pick" someday..... 😉 I laughed too hard when you broke the sign.....sorry. 😇 Thanks for sharing and keep yourself safe! Randy

[@carlwhite8225]

Great job Wyatt, yall all have skills, Wish yall were in GA

[@tree_monkey3120xp]

Congratulations on purchasing the 19x that is a sweet machine!!

[@Thetreefella]

Nice work guys.

[@MJPeddler]

I assume it costs a customer a little more when they want to keep the wood, since you have the labor of limbing and bucking vs shoving the whole thing into the chipper? Do you/can you sell your wood chips? Great job, and great video as-always. I'm continually impressed on your level of "Cool under pressure," and how you run your operation.

[@StihlChainsaws]

Hell yeah! Nice work wyatt

[@stizacraack9693]

Dude i thought to myself right before the text came on screen "that chippers a monster" Nice

[@chamness964]

How awesome!! I remember my 1st crane pick! Sycamore snapped off like a toothpick in a storm. I definitely wanna do that again! 👊👍

[@leifvejby8023]

Nifty use of the oak as workbench!!

[@JustJimJr]

Walker down method is what I use also. When you have yourself, a strap/rope/chain, and a pickup. Best way, if one has basic physics on there mind. Thanks, great video.... Just curious? 6-12K on the whole job, workers & equipment. Nice!

[@mvblitzyo]

pretty cool swings over the house ..

[@mattygersh544]

You write such nice 🎹 music. I could just see you playing it on the crane controls as your setting up

[@BaumpflegeMertens]

Congratulations to the NEW Chipper! Greetings to Everybody! Stay save and buissy

[@InDisTREETV]

awesome video...love that chipper stay say fella's

[@FT4Freedom]

Great team great equipment. Like heavens tree services.

[@coultonelliott4312]

Every time I see the huge trunks being chipped up I think that would be good firewood. I know that unless they had someone to keep it they have to. Is the chipped wood sell for good or something?

[@skyrunr]

Theme song for the ax19: Hey, nineteen No, we can't dance together No, we can't talk at all Please (DON'T) take me along when you slide on down

[@jmpsthrufyre]

Of course there's a sign in the way Of course there's no gas Of course they are leaning towards the house. I'm only a few seconds into the vid and I'm getting worked up. August is just calm and collected. St August. Should be the patron saint of patience.

[@toddjacks8288]

Good evening brother I been enjoying your videos

[@ahsanmohammed1]

Take a before and after of the air space around the house, drone shots would probably be cool

[@firstname6208]

Dayum augie, you broke off a piece of heaven!

[@magyar1274]

Wow! that machine just eats up those trees, awesome.

[@stihlsteadman]

Oh my goodness Wyatt great job Homie 🍀🤙🌲👊💪

[@brianwalmsley447]

A lot of expensive trucks and a crane big job proper setup 👍 big bill for customer 💰

[@tonyoffermans3676]

Awesome job, awesome team. Amazing equipment. Always a pleasure to watch and learn, even if I completely failed to find ANY mistake. Was it the hazardous sign removal?

[@gmoore6406]

Working with a crane is so enjoyable as a climber

[@samuelluria4744]

Okay, I can see that I'm gonna have to come out, and give you guys a boost. Enough problems already.

[@neekniggit3606]

I have operated cranes before during helicopter maintenance, but in this instance what does the climber need to do for a successful pick?

[@JustJimJr]

Also wondering? I've seen some good deals on smaller cranes. Wondering if one has to have a special specific license even for a small crane? I hear per hour they get big$$$$$.... I'm just a 1man, truck n trailer, a chainsaw (3), in a small farm town of maybe 4K people. Jobs are tricky when it's hard to find good help, but big money not to difficult to find. Just not steady work. Enjoy it much!

[@AugustHunicke]

States vary in their rules. Certification Is a good idea regardless of the rules though.

[@angryjay06]

Hey August, first time commenting. You are inspiring, your videos actually got me back in the game at the age of 40. Anyway growing my small company, doing well, I have made a few videos now, nothing real exciting. I was wondering if you could make a video on your "video editing process". Not sure if you get the time to read all you comments. Hopefully you get to this one! Keep up the whole creative process doing one of the greatest professions on the planet!!

[@AugustHunicke]

Thanks, I talk about that somewhat in a podcast found on educatedclimber.com perhaps I’ll do vids on that some time.

[@angryjay06]

@@AugustHunicke Awesome I ll check it out. One last question, What editing software do you use?

[@AugustHunicke]

Sony Vegas (Windows)and Final Cut Pro (mac).

[@63256325N]

Awesome job as always! Thanks for the video.

[@meadowviewlawncarellc8079]

Chipper is bad ass, above the tail lights on it, that red tube is that some kind of a roller so stuff doesn’t get hung up?

[@lorenfalk2339]

AX-19 is a beast

[@RockIslandguy]

Or you could call one of your wood heat friends and tell them to come get the wood!

[@Kaylascender]

"I think the RV will be okay."

[@losttheplot26]

Got myself a minor Eliet chipper shredder 2nd hand August. I'm made up it eats everything I can cut with the loppers and anything else is fire wood. You broke the sign lol

[@eddiephillips2000]

Cool to see someone get his chance to "ride the ball". Ha Ha Great job for you all once again!

[@Kc-bb4dt]

Play the Laverne and Shirley theme song and wave by to each pick of the tree. Please.

[@ColinTonkasdad]

great video with a good vibe ! cheers

Question? I am looking to put a winch like you have on your green ford,do you know what size(weight rating) that winch is, starting a tree company and I watch all your videos even though I don’ t do my part an 👍 them all,lol

[@AugustHunicke]

8k warn winch

[@kevinmathena1699]

Thanks

[@sigarius1783]

Hey I tought the AX 19 was not for any type of wood chipping ey? Lol.

[@ARKLITE881South]

Elmers wood glue, works great!

[@TrevorDennis100]

Go Wyatt. Top job, and wasn't he stoked to be doing it. Heck, he'd have paid August for the opportunity. Lads like that are just what August wants in his team. It got very weird from 6:45 where we saw the climber giving us a point of fixed reference for the top, so when it started moving it looked like the tree was still and the world was moving around it! Entire religions are made from moments like that. All bow down to the tree God that is the center of the universe.

[@brettblack7049]

Those religions start because people worship the created and not the creator 😉
