    It's always a pleasure to watch and learn from this man , he explains why and how. So why in the world would anyone get on here and run their mouths, and question what he does ? He does things in a tree 100' plus that most people wouldn't even do on the ground . I appreciate you take the time to show us your work , so others can learn .

    Think you're selling yourself short by stating that it's something and better than nothing to watch. It's a good quality video, period.
    And thanks for uploading it. I really love the talk up front about what's going on and then sort of go into the job with you. The tree was pretty sketchy, that's for sure. Good job, stay safe.

    Always enjoy your videos, Reg. I've been cutting and climbing for 42 years in Washington state and I completely empathize with you. Also, very nice that you are not full of yourself and always running your mouth. Humility is important. No place for ego in tree work. Stay safe and best wishes.

I know the grass is always greener etc.. but think about where you could be . Just saying .. Stay safe ,looking forward to more vids , ta

      I never said I was depressed in winter. I made reference to people work inside but still complain about the weather. Scheduling dangerous trees around unpredictable weather adds an extra element of pressure and anxiety i.e. we might be able work, or we might have to abandon and go home with nothing. And not so easy to walk away and have to pay wages regardless. Wind being our worst adversary. Lot of guessing and hoping

    I'm glad to hear your new helper is working out. My experience doing manual/technical work with women is similar to what you describe, they don't assume they know everything, and they seem less reluctant to admit when they don't know something. Not nearly as hard on equipment, either, but that might be something that young men just take longer to grow out of.

    Hello Kind Sir,
    Thank you for taking the time to share your experiences while removing that dead alder. 👍🏼
    I live in SE Alaska and we have some giant alders up here! Some of which I have been charged to remove.
    What always gets me is when the bole cracks in the center, sometimes immediately after making the cut. Tree fiber is amazing!
    Haven’t, thankfully, ever had one barber chair but I can see the potential.
    You take great care in your practice; very deliberate and conscious! I appreciate your videos and the patience you have for the craft. Amber is very lucky to work with you!!
    Enjoy the season; dark and dreary as it is in the PNW, getting out in it sure beats watching the day go by behind a pane of glass..
    Cheers

    A plug in mic for the phone would make audio clearer in the car from the engine noise. This can be removed in an editor easily but is still an extra step that is unnecessary with just a little mic. Some people use a lapel mic on the shirt for clarity. Thanks for the ride.

    Very good work and video Reg👌, I liked about 14:10 into the vid when a bit falls off a branch being lowered and your head snaps round quick to look, it's that sound that makes you think somethings gone wrong for about a millisecond and then the relief when alls good 😁.
    I reckon word of mouth unfortunately means you're not gonna get a hedge or anything easier than "dead, dangerous or massive" to fall back on in bad weather, but at least the dryer days aren't far off.
