I came here to check out a battery powered chainsaw and witnessed the most incredible "difficult" tree removal I've ever seen. That was seriously impressive.

When the video editing becomes so smooth and intuitive that you feel as if you are there - simply great!

August, It's been amazing to watch how much you've grown and all the hard earned wisdom that you've shared. I attribute my own company and the success that it has had largely to the hard lessons I didn't have to learn through watching your videos. Your content for years now has taught me things that I will carry with me the rest of my life, man. You truly are the Jerry Beranek of your time.

Love that you still have youthful enthusiasm for the work and the delight for when it goes so well.

Love the skid moving back tensioning the rigging just perfectly- showing that the operator “feels” what is about to happen….as he is a climber himself of course….

Your systems and techniques just seem to get more finely honed, when you didn't think they could run any more smoothly. Great work gentlemen!

THAT IS THE BEST RIGGING , ALL TOGETHER, FROM BEGINNING TO END, AND ESPECIALLY AT THE END!!!!!!! WAY TO GO!!!!!! EVERYONE!!!!!!! That is just smooth and in control. AWESOME TEAMWORK!

This whole edit was better than anything on netflix or TV in general. The mastery of you and your crews craft is obvious.

Just getting into climbing and trimming at 46yrs old. Enjoying your videos and knowledge that you are sharing. Loving this battery saw as I feel it would work better with what I plan on doing, basic trimming and limb removal. Love those views you have from the tops!

T540 is a great saw! You and your crew make a tough job look easy. Thank you for all your innovations, videos and expertise, we all appreciate this channel. Please keep it up!

Had one for almost a year now love it. elbow pain all but gone. haven't used gas 540 sense. been climbing 32 years and wish i had one all along.

Spectacular editing 14:36 The picture-in-picture! Then... 14:57 The switch to slow-mo and dramatic "high noon" music -- if Clint Eastwood were in the top of a tree, that is *exactly* how it would look and sound!

My 8 week old is pretty happy with the sound of the battery saw, so I can actually watch a full video well holding him. It is a win by me!

Yeah, my friends laughed at first when I bought my battery saw. Then they saw how much and how fast I could cut. Thanks for a great vid. Pure poetry in motion.

I can totally appreciate the effort that you have put into the filming and audio quality while filming. And let's not forget spot on video editing to create a fantastic video. Also, the actual work that you're doing!! What a great video, a big fat thumbs up my man.

I wouldn’t say you make it look easy but it doesn’t get any smoother! A great crew with a great leader, at least from what you show us ;)

Really, thank you so much for sharing this with us. I very much appreciate the effort, the footage, the drone, the time, the editing. This is super cool. Exciting, engaging and educational. Thank you.

Seems like most of the trees in your region are like soft wood , pine family type trees . Its nice to see someone passionate about the path they took & not complaining

This is nutz! You have an extremely dangerous job sir.. and you make it so damn entertaining!

You got the tools and the skills. Thankyou. Incredible footage! I’ve been curious about both those saws and really like your loader! Pro!! Stay safe. ✌🏽❤️

New found respect for what these guys do. My man has some major stones. I can't even get on my second story roof and he's up there cutting and recording at the same time. Hats off to him.

Great production on the video ! Thanks for posting, your videos are fascinating to watch !

Super impressive little saw. Hadn't seen that umbilical system before. Very cool!!

20:26 “ can you keep it down please “. Lol.

Terrified of heights myself, just amazed at the professionals at work. Great videos August.

That was just spectacular. Highly skilled team with great tools solve a very difficult problem. That's a very tough job. Well done for the work and the videography too!

Old hollywood style, rigged up and tied seamlessly to the newer informational is grafted perfection of infotainment. Brother you are brilliant and God is using you're gifts in the utmost of unexpected ways. Keep mounting up on those wings and those that don't know will continue to be inspired by the testimony of the life you so graciously share. One more time thank you for all you do.

What an awesome view from your office window!! Love the zip line for the branches being cut.

That’s a powerful battery chain saw and you always done it Proffessional and your crew are the best

This the best tree cutting video that I've seen. I even sent a link to the guy who cuts down trees for me. Impressive.

Great video , you are making some good innovations to your craft that will help others . Camera work Fire as always shout out to all the operators

Great job August and crew! Love your videos.

So well done from the recording, the editing, the tree, approach and team work. Simply a gifted and passionate bunch😁

The rigging methods used in this were impressive. Really enjoyed that.

You are frigging amazing at your craft. You and your team did great work on that pine in that congested area.

Fantastic job, August - great team 😃👌👏👏👏👏❤️

“See those ants… They’ll be marching right up to my neck…” 😳🤣 Good to see you using the 540i August! Merle was an early adopter. I think it’s been nearly 2 years? He raves about that saw and so do his customers. I’d say the bulk of his work is trimming and less takedowns so for him it’s a game changer. Your battery idea on the harness looks ideal! It’s been a while since I’ve watched a video… as always I’ve learned and have been entertained. 👏🏻 All the best to you and the crew.❤️

It's awesome that you are always using what you know, but are not afraid to try new tech. The search for better, easier, faster. Harnesses, rigging devices, saws. Then you show us. Thanks August regards

That camera angle from the ride that codom top took down the speed line was 😘🤌 *chef’s kiss*

You might want to add a breakaway connector on the power cable in case something snags the saw.

Nothing like watching people who have things under control .... Respect!

Great vid!…..well produced! Thanks for the great content.

Another great video. Really neat to see that batteries have gotten to a point where they are viable for this!

You guys are pros ! Excellent production. Thanks 62821

I am all about trying new things... love some old stuff like my 200T and think battery stuff is great in certain places. Love that it keeps neighbors happy in the morning and people are not freeked out your doing something wrong.. which we see

your videos just keep getting better. keep safe, cheers from Canada

I love this saw while working in the tree!! It would be amazing to move the battery to the harness. I will defiantly be watching to see this system being sold on your site!!!!

That was a great video. Really great filming, but boy you sure still get up there don't you. Simply amazing to watch you.

Brilliant drone and cutting work , very impressive

I've worked with plenty of tree surgeons in my day and you are the only one I have ever seen take those limbs down gently. I think it is a good habit.

Your video's just keep on getting better August. The editing was great. I still get nervous for ya when way up there.

Jeff running ropes like a boss, & the boss climbing/cutting like a champ👍 STAY SAFE FELLERS

18:32 Perfect example for how to rope negative rigging. Isn't on the brakes off the bat, and waits till the log has rolled to 45 degree ish downward angle, then gradually applies the brakes. Absolutely beautiful. If my understanding of the rope manipulation is off, please correct me. As a climber I do appreciate the occasional ride or 2, however I generally like things to go as smooth as possible, and this seems like a perfect clip to illustrate how to do it.

Great job guys and super photography!

Kit looks great - really enjoyed that ! it would be nice to have a flat battery that could clip to the suspenders on your back maybe great idea the mod you did . Jeff saved the day !! Soooo Close

It looks like that would be the almost perfect setup if they could create an umbilical that is incorporated in the lanyard so you don’t have a second strap/cable to deal with.

I really like what you`ve done......Regards from Bulgaria !!!

I picked up my 540 in March and love it. It’s the saw I use over my 200T for EVERYTHING!!!! Under 6”

This man is a MASTER ! Wow phenomenal work !

Just saw Treeson using the 540i and was wondering about it since most of the tree people seem to say battery saws just aren't ready yet. Glad to hear your thoughts on it and see the battery umbilical

Dude this is an expert in his craft great angles of recording as well.

excellent work...i am going to try and get my hands on the t540i ..I would really like to try that thing out. great video August stay safe stay healthy

Hi mate top video and very informative of your work wish I was there with you guys to experience it all, keep up the good work be safe and god bless you all.woody England

@10:00 (laugh) "...and I don't even have to start the saw!" That's what I love about my T540i! Oh, and I got my Monkeybeaver phone cases yesterday! Can't wait to use them. Got one to keep on the lift and the other for my saddle. 👍🏻

All of your videos are edited and paced extremely well, but this edit is next level. Even though the title describes the scenario, a story or man, method, machine vs. the fate and future of a trouble tree drama naturally unfolds. Informative, calculatedly intense (due to the inherent nature of the occupation) and seamlessly entertaining.

21:15 now that’s using every available inch! Excellent stuff Jeff!

Love the raptor, it's so insanely good and yeh it's always so tempting to say nah I'll just spike, it but you never regret that little bit of extra set up once you're at the top with all your gear ready to go 👍

Your work is ART!

My first electric chainsaw days were with the 12 volt lead acid anchor batteries. Mostly all with a number 10 and number 8 gage home made extension cords. I did try a portable smaller battery to wear but the motor drainages was to great for the smaller lead acid battery. I do have a beautiful 110 volt big electric antique chainsaw wit a big bold brass name plate and large thumb operated chain oil pump that I hope I can find a collector to own one day. Because of my experience with the 12 volt chainsaw as a kid I became a great user of 110 volt chainsaws when I could find a good one. The electric extension cord never bothered me.

Excellent video, light saw, but I can’t get over that your shirt looks like the movie Inception!

AUGUST HUNICKE IS THE MASTER OF TREES, HE IS ONE WITH THE TREE, HE IS THE YODA OF TREE WORK. HE IS PROOF THAT TREE WORK DOESNT HAVE TO BE HARD ON UR BODY. When u make it look so easy, is when u have mastered the art. Good freakin job job, editing level 1000.

Damn that was exciting...nice work Jeff:)

Great demo! I'm guessing that this is just the beginning of the battery revolution, and much lighter saws will be around the corner. The local dealer tells me these are back ordered until August. The numbers show it is still more heavy and more bulky than the echo 2511T, because you need to add the weight of the battery you are using to the published weight for the saw alone. There's also the sticker shock of how much it costs; almost double a normal saw when you add charger and batteries.

I`m not a woodman August, but I find this sort of stuff fascinating. I like the Pink Floyd T shirt too.:-)

Watching this video my thoughts as follows: 1) You sure have to trust your equipment especially what's holding you up the tree!! 2) One small factory defect in that equipment can end your life instantly!! 3) Thanks for showing idiots like me how the professionals handle the job! Great team & great video footage!

GREAT VIDEO ! AWESOME GEAR ! AWESOME SAW SET UP !

You have big stones my son, good job, I hope you make good earnings, that tall timber Urban work a real art, you got it figured out we see👍

Fantastic rigging. Now is the time to ask for a raise. The world is watching.

Unreal camera angles. Nice work.

Man I love your work and vids. 🤟🇨🇦

Good video. I like the idea of having the batteries on your harness

All I can say is that whatever this man is getting paid, he's worth EVERY penny! WHAT A PROFESSIONAL!!! Think of what that Tree has "seen" since it was a sapling, lived a full life, and now going to be a 'tree house'....some trees just give EVERYTHING to man, and then they give some more...What a wonderful lifeform they can be if you take a moment to consider, and really appreciate the wonders of this earth:)

Gotta love how builders put houses right next to trees that would grow to be huge. Endless work that just keeps growing. If the trees aren't cut down before they become a problem, they just become a bigger and more expensive problem

good crew, perfect job as always!

EXCELLENT WORK GUYS. THAT WAS GREAT

Thanks for sharing, you guys are amazing!

That's great. And with an umbilical, one can have larger battery capacity for longer jobs without having to change out.

That's one hell of a cool office you've got there :)

I recently had a large maple in a confined space removed on my property. The entire process was a horror. I wish the company I hired had shown half the thought, care, respect, professionalism, and skill you and your crew show here on a regular basis. You and your company are exceptional.

Love the downpipe on that shed! I'll stick with the 200t but it looks interesting. Terrific job though; well done.

Love watching the R&D. 😁

And they say, ain't no such thing as a "free ride"😁. It's called working smarter not harder 🤘. Nice letting Damien get up their, what a nice Boss🤘🤙

I was missing the videos of Team Hunicke. I was thinking to myself what if you dropped a chunk on the roof. Then seconds later it almost happened. Glad it didn't though! Thanks for another great video. Your video skills are equalled by your tree skills. Both are extraordinary...

Fantastic work guys!!! Great!!!

What a crew! Keep it up guys.

best T-shirt I've seen in 2021, not a bad saw either

I used to climb when I was young in the cold Michigan weather, I didn't last long, they don't make boots and gloves big enough or good enough for me, I hated it ..18yrs old, and now ..11 years ago I moved to Florida and started a tree business, 55 years old ..I don't remember the climbing bug ever bitting me, but it did, love being in the trees now, but I got all my equipment now, fully equipped bucket trucks, dump trailers, bobcat mini skid , kubota tractor , and it dont get so cold that I'm scared my fingers won't latch back to the tree after I send it ..the trees are shorter in florida , retired climbers paradise I call it ...

Glad you are using battery saws. It's all I have.

My daddy just showed me this video absolutely love you guys you Are The Greatest And I really love the awesome view’s really cool Battery Saw too absolutely loved everything big hugs 🤗🤗🤗

You are the tree ninja master...nice work great JOB great vidio!!!!
