- This is how I use regular 2 inch trucking straps for tree work. I keep 2 of these in my rigging bag at all times. Get some...

Love that little tip for customizing them straps. Never thought of that and I’ve had the metal fail under a big load! Thanks
First video I've seen using ratchet straps for arborist work. I've used them and tow straps on trees around my property and they've never failed. Well done!
your best idea yet....
Cool use of our straps! To save you work and time, we do sell as a lashing strap already so there would be no modification needed!
Right on, that would be perfect, these straps are so good for tree work ✌️ - Patrick
@@TreeMuggs_PatrickM We'll connect with you offline!
I'd definitely say that's the most appropriate method of use for ratchet straps in a tree that I've ever seen. Thanks for sharing!
Now I need to customize my ratchet straps. That's a great idea Patrick. Good looking out hoss👌😁😎
Another nice Pat trick 😁
Excellent tip for flared base tree's.
Great tip on getting rid of hooks! Thanks!
That trick with the webbing, the continuous loop...GIANT life hack! Thanks stud
Great idea, I especially like the idea to deploy them to hold together the codominant stems to make a stump cut.
Couldn't wait for another video buddy God bless my friend
Love the modification of eliminating the hooks! Great idea when they are mainly only used to go around objects for compression and holding in these tree work scenarios. I’ll have to do that to a couple of mine 👌
Have been using modified ratchet straps just like that for years. The best & safest way by a long shot. Always minimise the points of connection.
Awesome Patrick 👌 share the knowledge ! Cheap to purchase
Thank you for sharing. First off, all your videos are very well edited. I've been watching your videos for a while and learned so much from them. I'm a beginner and learned everything about tree cuttting from youtube and your videos help groom my skills. My preferred rigging knot is also the Daisy Chain hitch which I learned from your videos. Lately when I search youtube for treeworks, I ended up watching a guy flying an airplane. So, I smashed your Subscribe button and can't wait til the next one.
Awesome! They are also great for pretensioning before you cable a tree.super great tool! Thanks for the trick of modifying them!

Good stuff brother. We are taking down a lightning-struck pine with a codominant stem and a big split right down the main joint and we need some insurance to hold those stems together while we blow out the tops. I wasn't sure if I was crazy thinking we could rachet strap it....nice to see it's legit
Excellent! Thank you!
Wow, cool to see i'm not the only one who made exactly this modification on a "SpanSet"! Cheers Reto
Love the enginuity of the endless loop strap that will be very helpful so thank you for sharing
Phenomenal idea from something so basic. Great advice
I also use this Straps for the Rigging Poller. But I neuer modificate the device. Simply put the hook into the "screw / bolt " of the ratchet. That is it. And the Straps can be used also convetional
Love it
Good tip that I may never thought of on my own. I was watching Zaccheus. One of his commentors mentioned your video.
You just made my life easier. I’ve been using a quick link to join the straps together.
Wow I’ve been using truck load straps for a route 25 years now totally randomly when I needed to people always think I’m crazy you just gave me a new idea of how to make my job easier thank you. I mean with the single strap I always connected the ends either very carefully or with carabiners.
One of your best content videos yet. I've been blessed & cursed with old homestead land. Like 25 years ago b4 I started farming on it & fencing the land was so thick u could see 10 yards in any direction. By far much worse than the dead red oak wilt is the old growth choke 🍒 🌳. These r huge & heavy & always leaners or co-dominant. Very inconsistent & dangerous. I actually have been using these straps with them & have 2 leaning in opposite directions strapped together with 1 of these & backed up with heavy rigging rope. I have a co-dominant ash that I needed 2 of these straps to hold cuz the east side would have fallen on our doorstep by now. Split in a north to south configuration from 8 foot up to the ground. Thankfully they have stopped moving & I have a large maple that I've placed a blue Amsteel rigging line to make the job safer. The side that will remain is very straight & doesn't fork & spread like the weak side. I'm fortunate I started doing the arborist work some time ago or it would be overwhelming. Thanks again and take care.😉
Dude rent a huge excavator for 1500$ delivered and push em over safely. I’m a tree removal professional and whene it gets that nuts, that’s how you handle it. If it’s one tree, yeah work it over however you need to, but with high volume danger, push em right over roots and all. Do acres per day. Get a minimum 20 ton machine on a low boy and dig the roots on one side, reach 45* up the tree and using the heal of the bucket, not the teeth, push it over. If you don’t want the root ball out, push the tree, face cut it and back cut it, then finish pushing it over.
Great sharing. I have 20 of these - some only 20 feet, some 25 feet and of these some ratcheting and some just towing straps - about 12 years ago a local big box store (Chicago, USA area) had them free-after-rebate and then later only $2.00 after rebate. Now they are $10. I also have a couple of the 3" straps that are 30-feet long and 30,000-pound breaking strength. I once strapped an 80-foot tall with about an 80-foot branch circumference honey locust together and then felled the whole tree - I had five big branches strapped together. The tree was 2-feet from the house and raised deck. I also sometimes connect straps together with the old rubber band method - make sure the connection has one side "breakable knot". I have used these to pull trees or stumps with a cum-along. The straps also make great anchors around other tree trunks - where a log chain or cable might dig into the bark. I really like your videos. Keep them coming. Stay safe. And thank you for updating the tree "bible".
Very cool will be making one 👍🏻 👌
Nice tip for barber chair prevention.
Definitely gonna use that strap idea for leaners
Very well done man ! Awasome video and very informative as well. I lost one of my childhood freinds a good buddie of mine from this kind of work. Fell through a garage from 50 ft with a piece that came down and crushed his head in. Im so glad you make this videos and find the saftest ways possible to work and share it with the world. Thank you
I like the bollard strap-stay concept and the upper strap to hold bollard upright on tree( used that one before!) Great video tips, thanks!
Love em ,great tool.I like the trick holding lower device down 😁👍🏻
now I know exactly how ill use the 3 big brand new blue beasts i was given
I like that you have presented this…
I’ve seen tree base anchors which to my eyes look identical to a standard transport ratchet strap which is where my searching has found this video…
Anyway, I’m always exploring the use of equipment from other industries and it’s good to see you don’t just buy EVERYTHING from an Arb Supply store ;)
This is so good
gd idea i always got a habit of a steel welded ring but never thought it that thank you climb high stay safe enjoy all your videos
Used them for applications mentioned except the portawrap setup. I second the customization props as well Super clever tips. Thank you.
I bought like 4 of the fundamentals ebooks a while back on accident and have the paper copy from last year. Thanks again for all your work on making that more assecible to us all.
Keep it up! 👍👍
Thanks for the support brother. - Patrick
Love the idea, thanks for the content!
That was a good idea I got to do that with my ratchet straps I hate connecting those two hooks together too
Hell yeah dude.
I have a 2" ratchet strap I can do that too. Thanks for the tip it's very smart !
Great idea, thank you 🙏
Awesome thanks
holy shit. amazing!
That’s genius!
Awesome information. I will be doing this to my straps. I do not like those hook-end things, they just seem suspect. Thank you, Jim.
NICE
OMG, today on Sunday I saw my browser was sitting at 1:06 and upon seeing the position of the Stein RC-1000 it looked like a religious crucifix (outstretched arms, even with spots for eyes and eyebrows on the head! Pondering the color yellow, it supposedly stands for happiness, optimism, enlightenment, creativity, and sunshine... or on the negative side yellow implies cowardice, betrayal, egoism, madness and even caution or physical illness. But since the word stein implies beer, as does the color yellow, let's forget all the subliminal messages and have a brewsky - hehe 🍻
That’s money thanks
👍👍
Nice one Patrick thank you - straps are a life saver in situations where a tree is compromised. There are cheap straps available but don’t touch these, the mechanisms are poor quality and they don’t have load ratings on them.
🤙🏼
What do you use on your stein 1000 lowering device is the just a giant strap I'm always using ratchet straps it's a pain in the ass
What is your experience with corrosion and rusting ratchets. They cant be around wet of saltwater climates as they will rust out. What about marine grade ratchets? They would last forever in any climate including tree work, boating, and transport
I’ve used them…
