Nice job! Great to see other guys way of doing same thing. Note: Try cutting the limbs slightly into stem, it’ll bend/peal down without the mid branch splitting/ pointy stub. Cheers 🤙🏽💪🏽
REally like the way you do your commentary. Quite different to other arb videos I watch. It fills in the gaps where I often have questions coming up about a tie in method or perhaps rigging choice as examples.
Great work, awesome video bro. Im a rookie arborist trying to learn as much as i can so I have a quick question... why cut such tiny pieces on the trunk? I heard your explanation and I completely understand the risks of a rotted hemlock and not wanting to rig timber sized pieces but why cut 100 little 4 inch disks when you could have easily/safely cut 35 or 40 16inch chunks? The 3 hours it took would have been cut in half with half the cuts. Just wondering why u went with cookies instead of firewood sized chunks?
Glad you are enjoying it!! I cut them that small because they are heavy haha! I needed to be able to throw them into the driveway and lower down the trunk there was no way I would be able to throw a 16" piece of that thing. Western hemlock is heavy and near the bottom a 16" bolt would be 200+ lbs. Too much for me to twist and throw on spurs. I would have cut larger and tipped them off if I had a bigger drop zone.

I'm really stoked to hear that! It's totally my intention to explain and keep the down time in the videos to a minimum.
I like your outdoor office! It's nice to see the branches come down and not the people!
Haha that is always plan A
Effin' Gravy! Love it!
Oh you got it bud
Great video. Those hemlocks get big out west 😅
And I love the Makita, I’ve got the 36v one. They’re great.
Nice! We have the DUC356 as well and it is great. Yeah they do get big eh - a lot bigger than this too!
so wonderful beautiful video Sid i love it see so nice
Great Job guys! I appreciate the way you explain what and why you are doing what you're doing! Keep up the good work.
Thank you!! We'll keep em coming!
Great job boys!
Thank you!
Super interesting to see the process and decision-making that goes into taking down a tree of that size.
Glad you're finding them interesting! Thanks for he support!
Awesome job brother
Thank you! Cheers!
Awesome skills and reasoning!
Thank you!
Nice 'after-clean-up' tour. I noticed some sawdust on the roof in some earlier segments. Did those get cleaned up too?
Thanks! Yep, the guys got the roof all cleaned off too with the rake and blower!

@SidsTreeServiceLtd that makes perfect sense. Thanks for the reply
Really hard to watch when you’re afraid of heights 😂 great job!
Thank you! Tree climbing does not mix well with a fear of heights haha
Mommy brain goes 'Yikes!' every time you use your hand to sweep away sawdust in the notch. Isn't there a non-loved-one's-limb method?
Haha funny enough that's probably the least dangerous thing I did in the whole video.
Is funner a word??😅
Maybe not but saying more fun isn't funner.
50 logs... oh way off, haha
Haha there is way more wood in those things than it seems eh! Sabrina guessed 25 lol
Your kill count😂
Awesome content. Much appreciated.
Glad you enjoyed it!
