@@zaccheus the first drill I had was brushed and only made it 15ft. The Harbor Great drill is doing awesome so far. Like your buddies setup, I also started with the akimbo. The RR with the stuff teather seems to be the best setup. Taking a secondary climbing system also allows you to bail out if the Z2R malfunctions on the way up.

@timbermen11 For sure, for sure. It is super important to always have a rope egress and this unit doesn't claim to be able to support that function so I think two ropes is probably the way to go. I'm going to try setting it uo that way next time around for sure.

@@outofmiryclay good point. I can’t really think of another way to back it up and it’s a lot of work too set up a secondary rope, so I’m just going to go with what I’m using and pray it keeps working. I’m more concerned about internal gears stripping and the Z2R failing mechanically rather than it chew a rope up and fail that way. Can you think of another way to back it up?

@@timbermen11 the only thing I can think would be to attach a hand ascender to your bridge with a webbing sling long enough so that the ascender grabs the ascension rope just above the rope runner. The toothed cam of an ascender will grab more securely and quicker if there is a failure. That being said, you are correct that it is very unlikely that the pulley will actually shred the rope under any kind of "normal" use...most likely the rope would start slipping or the gearing could malfunction. What I was thinking of doing is having a dedicated ascension line strictly for the pulley and then use my normal rope for my standard mechanical device. I was thinking I'd just pull both lines up the tree simultaneously with the same throw line and base tie them and then once I make it to the top I'd have the ground person undo the base tie on the ascension line and lower that whole system down. Wouldn't really take more time to set up...and I think you already said you'd be bring a second rope up with you anyway.

@@outofmiryclay good idea with the hand ascender teeth. It would likely still grab if it was above the RR. I tried the 2 separate ropes and it’s difficult to work the drill with one hand and tend slack on a climbing system with the other hand

Sounds complicated….

@@adamt936 with a chainsaw and some ropes….

Yh... But.. it's a bit like over the property.... By enough😆😆​@@timbermen11

Correct

👴🏻

It was designed that way…

Nice! What did you use for a backup system?

@@timbermen11 I throw a small quick link in the top attachment hole and put my top rope through it. I tie a prusik above it and attach to me. The quick link pushes the prusik up hands free.

Good movie Almost 3ft of snow and no crane access

Do you have any info on the other brand pulley?

Thanks Larry! Everything I cut is a minimum of 2” I’ve found anything under 2” will check and twist during my redneck drying process.

Yes 8/4 in milling terms

Santa isn’t gonna be happy with that request…

@@timbermen11 god sees what we do and he will provide.... stay safe out there

FOR REAL. I mean, good work and all.... but if there was ever a job for a crane, that was it.

@@timbermen11what model morbark chipper do you run and what year is it?

You definitely won’t regret it !

If you cut wood that is covered in drywall, fiberglass, roofing tar and other chain dulling material, it will make the chain dull.

Because I wasn’t alive 40+ years ago when the house was built. Thanks for watching!

Not many answers….

Thanks Darrell

Thanks for watching!

Yessir I believe you are correct, unfortunate part, there isn’t any dirt bag timber cutters around to hootNholler when it happens! Thanks for watching MACHINE👊🏼

Thank you sir but I’m knot that talented, heck I’m knot even sure what I’m doing half the time…

Oh for Pete Steak I mean sake what a nice comment!

It was a joke….

Because it’s a specialty job that brings a higher rate. It literally pays to be good at and willing to do difficult tasks

@@chipperhughes4755 fair enough I’m just thinking from an accident POV you can be good but there’s nothing he cant do much about that rope breaking and the log damaging their roof no? I’m not even being a smartass here I don’t know logging or tree cutting

A woman was involved I guarantee it...

Why is there a full-grown porch around the tree?

I agree! Seem like a solid group of smart individuals

This lazy man agrees!

I bring a secondary rope with me. If that scenario happens and I get stuck, I plan on using the secondary rope and anchor to the tree or the rope runner above the Z2R to repel down. …or just call my buddies the fire department….
