Good morning August, That gob of vines with a tree in it reminds me of my first big tree removal. My sister had three trees covered in vines so bad that she could not get a local tree company to climb and remove the trees. "I'll do it" I said. I rented an 85' boom with a 12' kicker and still had 16' of tree above me. It took me three days to cut and lower all the vine covered limbs and trunks. Worst part was the spiders. Big golden orb spiders. Invasive species, no kidding as big as my hand and there were dozens of them. I had to tape my pant legs tight to my boots. I had two franken saws and managed to keep one of them going till the job was done. I remember at one point a guy pulled up under the tree I was cutting and parked his car to talk on the phone. He got mad at me when I yelled at him. Smiling, George.
Your voice sounds better already🙏. Definitely didn’t slow you down any. Seemed like you learned how to land a plane at night on Monday, filmed and removed a huge 5 headed tree Tuesday, removed this one must of been Wednesday.. starting to wonder when editing or sleeping happens? Definitely appreciate all you and your boys hard work! 👍
Dan da man. This Bg checking in. Be sure to watch your notifications because you got another subscriber here at the time of you reading this. That's a +1 haha 😄 Ive Always said it takes penny's to make dollars. Well guess TH-cam is kinda the same way with subscribers lol Love the content as well! Thank August Hunicke 🙏🏼 tho because if not for his video and seeing your comment...well I might not have ever found you but sure glad I did bud. 🤙🏼💪🏽👏🏼🪓🪓🌲🌲🪢🪢💯💯
Congratulations on the 3k mark on the Monkey Beaver. Woo that took long enough 😅 thank you so much for making these videos they do so much for the young working man especially when I felt I couldn’t open up to my old man /loved ones about tree man blues thank you so much for being my jerry barnek 🤝
I've recently learned something about myself, I think I'm a stress-youtuber. When i get stressed out I increasingly turn to youtube to chill out, and this is one of the first channels i look for in such a situation. So thank you team Hunicke for the momentary escape!
Everyone please stop for a moment of silence for the lost GoPro..... 😔 Sitting here with a broken collarbone watching you and the crew having fun making hard work look easy..... again. I believe making hard work "fun" is a skill more people should have. Of course loving what you do makes a really big difference. Thanks August for taking the time to share another great video "sprinkled" with your little "nuggets of knowledge". 🤓 Keep yourselves safe! 😃👍❤🌲 Randy
@@nhmountains5683 Thanks! Ayuh, gonna be cold, I'll be burnin' an extra load or 2. 😉 Broken bones heal slow, gettin' very restless just sittin' on the couch. 🤪 Saw the Doc today, he says progress looks good. 👍
You guys definitely have way more fun than you should be having at work, but that's what happens when you have a good crew of people to work with, keep up the great work and stay safe.
Typical August - flipped a branch at us. Just barely caught us. 🙂 We loved it. Thank you for the video - hope the crew, family and you are doing well. Take care - God Bless.
Was headed home and saw these guys setting up on this job. Had to turn around to go say hi. What a fantastic crew, they were smiling and very willing to say hi. Fantastic work men, stay safe and take care. PS. I can confirm that a GoPro met it’s demise via chipper. The evidence was laid out for all to see:)
Well this remind me of me and the fellas at work. Sure lucky to have a job that can be speed lined!! Most jobs we can't because of so much congestion being infinite obstacles it feels like at times. We do a controlled zip line/ speed line most the time from back yards clear over the house if conditions are suitable.(Not recommended without proper supervision of a expert) we attach a pully to the Bandit chippers carabiner on the winch! From there to the excavators bucket that has a special U bolt I've welded on! Then around a PortaWrap! Sometimes I'll just use a old flipline gold tensioner with a carabiner to the u bolt. Then when I pull slack out it stays put. Put a tag on the limb being cut then portawrap at the bottom of the tree like you using it regularly 1 to 2 wraps depending sized. Climbing cuts limb. Ground guy holds rope on portawrap then excavator backs up putting tension on the road and pulling the Rope tighter which lifts the limb up then G guy takes wraps off PortaWrap releasing limb to travel down speed line straight infront or beside chipper. Hard to explain honestly but works great. Love the content August..also try the old flipline gold tensioner if you want on z rig or m rig setup to be a progress capture device so to speak. Works better and hold more then you could imagine. 💪🏽👏🏼🤙🏼💯
Enjoyed the video. You're a man who loves adventure. That's what life is about.....seeking exciting and unusual, sometimes hazardous, experiences. "To live, not just exist. 🙏
I'm glad you you film some of your shenanigans at work .was that tree still alive ? it was nearly covered in those ivy vines, heck that one vine could have been a tree.
8:55 this would be a great channel intro bummer about Damien's camera going over "old stuff" again is great - reinforces concepts, sometimes rephrasing or picturing again can be what makes someone really get it. Thanks so much for a great channel!
Howdy August and Crew, y'all take the hardest parts of the job and make it fun. August with the assist Damien hits the three pointer from tree top level. Love it. Have A Day!
If cutting limbs is ha-do-ken, i wonder what tiger uppercut, sonic boom or sho-ryu-ken would do :-). I knew there is a secret tree guy´s language. Love your kind of humor. I´d like to see a follow up on the ´fight breaks out on tree job´ video.
I'm pretty sure I know why you have them there but it's funny you had a bucket and a crane onsite and damiens manually climbing ziplining brush lol poor dude.(he secretly loves it)
Will you do an experiment for this armchair tree student (born in 1943)... Take two straight trees of same diameter. Cut a humboldt face cut in each. On one make straight back cut but leave wedges in just far enough to remove the saw. On the other one raise the back cut entry point 3 fingers and angle down to make the hinge. Now find out if the angled cut will produce more top over effect than the straight one using the wedges.
Great video! Just a tip (which you probably already know); you can slow down equipment (chainsaw) a little better and have more control if you have it on two slings instead of one. You still wave the speed line back & forth but you have that much more control.
That looks like the sumac that grows in NH. If your allergic to sumac it will mess you up. This stuff you guys are dealing with will it rejuvenate if you put a piece of it in an X's yard?
How do you cost out jobs? Just curious. I live in Texas where we have very few trees, so not trying to start a tree service business. But I am guessing that some of the jobs In your videos must run into the thousands of dollars.
Wasnt trying to put a hoodoo on you guys when i asked if youd put a gopro through the chipper ..my bad for even thinking it, sorry Damian. Going to put one on my plane .. the clamps look butty. You guys inspired me.
Love the vids learned a lot, I’m a tree climber myself aspiring to take videos of what I do as well because you know, is there a certain hard hat that you love and has a go pro attachment? Would love some help especially from one of the best
Awesome video and a very good crew. August I have a question. I'm in the market for a new chipper and wanted to get your opinion on the BC 1000? On average how big of a piece will it take?
We don’t deserve all this great content. But please keep it coming lol
No doubt.

4 am on the east coast and I want to go out and cut wood. LOL
I would love to be on a crew like the one you have assembled! Great vid! Hello from MN 👋
August - you are nearing the 100K mark for subscribers! Well done. You continue to provide great content for hungry viewers. Sincere thanks.
The hiduken right before the camera smack killed me 😂😂
August you are an awesome example
Awesome fellas. I like how humble y'all are. Everyone but Damion. Lol. Bsafe and tree hug on.

That was one ugly tree. Crazy what that Ivy can do. Also bummer about the go pro.
May Damian’s GoPro rest in pieces lol!
This was a fun video to watch. I like seeing everyone smiling as they clearly like their jobs. Keep them coming, but stay safe!

Always enjoyable to spend time watching the tree topping ballet. August and crew with their crane is very uplifting and spiritually motivating.

You gotta love Adams laugh 😀
Biblical wisdom to wrap things up is always the best!
Men are such boys at all ages! Dawns here☀️
Definitely been so nice working Wheathers in our areas lately!
Good job guys y'all had fun with that one. Take care and have a blessed day and I'll see you on your next vidja.
August is going cRaZy with the uploading i love it
Brilliant video guy's 😎
Not a lot worse than ivy and that looked like some ivy !!
Love the filter cover on the 201t
If you can't safety wire it nothing works.
I liked the ground man's perspective of speed lining.
speedlining of the saw was insane 🤣
Nasty vine, but it didn’t seem to change the good attitude. 👍👍👍
Amen August! Great job team & great to hear you all laughing it up.
I'm glad you you film some of your shenanigans at work .was that tree still alive ? it was nearly covered in those ivy vines, heck that one vine could have been a tree.
I knew there was something different about you August. Unashamed to say I’m not the only Bible preaching tree guy. Brothers in Christ!
8:55 this would be a great channel intro
bummer about Damien's camera
going over "old stuff" again is great - reinforces concepts, sometimes rephrasing or picturing again can be what makes someone really get it.
Thanks so much for a great channel!
Great footage but awesome speed lining the saw wow 🤣😂👊
Fantastic work team! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐😃
You guys are funny. So nice to see people enjoying what they do.
thanks for all your work Auggy
Who?

Another quality production! You make work fun. The saw catch was sketchy.
Straight in the chipper awsome
I like that Arbor 1? Hoodie. Matches the blue green Clogger Zeros.
You were burning the midnight oil to put this video out. Good to hear your voice is much better. Thanks...

Not bad for a bunch of monkeys
Everyone amazing great job Gob bless you a all you team
That was some mean ivy... when log was cut, it hung on like it was part of the tree. So glad Damien enjoyed his high top moments.
Boys playing limbdarts to the chipper. Thats funny. Mill some boards from that logs for the treehouse.
Greetings from the northern of Germany
Wish I could come out there and work as a ground man to learn so much more.
Ironically, August had never won a stuffed animal at the fair until they started the "speedline limbs into a chipper" game.
When August says, “Damien chipped his GoPro”, I’m thinking it has a chip in it. That’s NOT what happened….
I'm pretty sure I know why you have them there but it's funny you had a bucket and a crane onsite and damiens manually climbing ziplining brush lol poor dude.(he secretly loves it)
Bucket for lower stuff. Crane for lower stuff.
@@AugustHunicke and 1 strapping young man for the top
Keep ‘em comin! Another fun video, thanks August and team
You guys do interesting and quality videos. Thank you!
Now that’s some Ivy!!

So gopro no go for chipper lol respect from UK
August you sound like a martial artist

Everyday there's been a video so great keep up the good work guys stay safe God bless
Great video as always Mr.White
That looks like the sumac that grows in NH. If your allergic to sumac it will mess you up. This stuff you guys are dealing with will it rejuvenate if you put a piece of it in an X's yard?
Yup, old growth ivy
Crazy how high this ivy is growing up the tree
Hakkyoku-ken 👏🏻👏🏻🤣
How do you cost out jobs? Just curious. I live in Texas where we have very few trees, so not trying to start a tree service business. But I am guessing that some of the jobs
In your videos must run into the thousands of dollars.
Not bad , not bad at all !!! Lol
If a go pro gets chipped in the ivy and no one sees it, does it still make a video?
Could we get a video of you estimating work and such
Air filter cover go through the chipper too? 🤔🙈
Yall need another groundie ? My commute might be a little rough I'm up in Washington
Thanks August! If you don't mind sharing, what video editor are you using? Thanks...
Final cut
Jui jitsu zip lining..!
Make Adam climb another tree I don't remember why you guys did it last time but you should do it again it'll be a good video
Wasnt trying to put a hoodoo on you guys when i asked if youd put a gopro through the chipper ..my bad for even thinking it, sorry Damian. Going to put one on my plane .. the clamps look butty. You guys inspired me.
Hey August,do a parody of Undercover Boss.
I often think wwad when I'm in the tree. What would August do ?
I don't have anything to contribute in the comments, I just want to help your algorithm.
I nicked my rope pretty bad the last time I sent my saw down on a speedline :/
Is Damien canopy anchored while speedlining? Couldn’t see if his rope went back down to a base anchor

Awesome video and a very good crew. August I have a question. I'm in the market for a new chipper and wanted to get your opinion on the BC 1000? On average how big of a piece will it take?
Depends on how sharp you keep it. It’s a great chipper.
@@AugustHunicke Will it cut a 12" piece pretty easy, if it's sharp?
I believe it is 11” - stated by Vermeer if you have the XL…cheers
