August, this was fantastic! You perched us way up high for a nice view of you clearing your way to the top. I've tried a bit of that camera placement-climbing up to set the camera and back down to work-so I definitely appreciate the effort you put in to put together a masterful video-I've got a long way to go to put together better videos. It sure is fun though!

I had a similar issue (5:30) with my t540i and took it into Madsens in Centralia WA. The mechanic said that saw dust had accumulated in the throttle, so when I squeezed the trigger the electric components weren’t making contact. I just make sure to blow that out whenever I clean the saw and it hasn’t been an issue since. Keep up the great content, man.

love it-fast and efficient- almost effortless. I have dialed my kill kit in…travel with it….work in different states, take my 9 yr old son with me now..In some areas of US - you do 3 smaller jobs like this in a day and have a surprising great income (affluent). …and folks love it when you swoop in, get it done…this vid and the one in the Cedar (Makita) you felt free…very cool. I cherish the the azure blue days in the west…you up in the cedar - on a perfect day… a feeling that resonates…thank you for sharing it…

I understand what your saying and appreciate you sharing the experience you have through. Thank you so much for being such a great example you teach many

Thanks for the Videos August, appreciate them.

I appreciate you posting this up August. I have on more than one occasion pulled a small top just like you did. A very handy "tool" to have in the box when you need it. MonkeyBeaver crew keeps on makin' the hard work look easy. Keep yourselves safe! 😃👍❤🌲 Randy

Great job on the saddle 🌲❤️ Enjoyed the ring tone and the video ! 👍

Fantastic filming. Thank you from Spain !!

Impressive what you do August. I learn a lot and so do enjoy your talent and skill set.

Really Great video August ❤❤ Awesome catch 😀 Love Sam at the end of these showing new customs !!! Been so crazy busy I still haven't got to watch your last one with the Makita.... BUT I DARN SURE WILL !!! Have watched all your video's multiple times 😉 and again Thank you so very much ❤❤

August you keep me inspired and energized to keep going, to be greatfull and too have fun, thanks for the vid man, loved the catch of.the.limb and the laugh after. That did something for me hahaha!

I’ve been watching videos of yours for a while now and I have to say this is one of my favorites!

Enjoyed the video. That was very enjoyable tree to work. Nice. As always you went out of your way to place camera at great angles for our entertainment. Kudos my man.

You're an artist, man. Glad that battery started working!

My truck was down for a bit and I started rockin' the wife's minivan. I was surprised at how nice it was for a climbing rig. The only downside was that I had to put my gas saws in one of the other trucks going to the site.

It’s funny how you often end up back how you started, simple and straight to the point with equipment that puts in the work.

Thanks for another great video August!

Great job, I have to admit I was sad when I learned you let that truck go, but happy that it stayed in the family. Don't feel alone I don't use a snap cut that often either. I find it to be a waste of time as well. Stay safe my friend and I'll catch you on the next one.

Love seeing the Saddles at the end!!

Good lawn figure placement!

4:00 as a crew leader, they way you guys just spoke to each other is one good reason you guys are in good business. I worked for the biggest company on montreal Island and whenever I had to call the owner(boss) who happened to buy the company and didnt have any experience in the past in terms of tree work. So whenever I had to call him, he was just so snippy all the time and realy cold. Hanging up on me without saying goodbye and stuff, I mean this made me not want to call him anymore and as a crew leader I need to speak to my boss for certain things, that was just messed up

I bought a Honda element recently and use it for all my boss kit. Works great, got a roof box with all my climbing gear and saws.

I love my Kobalt Pole Saw - 80-volt - 5-ah battery - 10" Bar - 6 ft / 8ft foot Pole Saw. No cable. Using an Oregon Bar and Chain. I have been using it for more than 3 years now. It works great on my southeast Louisiana farm clearing property that a hurricane went through and trashed all the trees in the woods of our 20-acre farm. I carry it all over our woods and the battery lasts a long time. Today I'll be cutting a 6-inch limb off of a tree out front. I am also using (2) Kobalt 80 volt 18" Bar Chainsaw and using the 5 AH Batteries. Cuts huge logs great. The first one wound up in a puddle and stopped working but after a couple of weeks and it had dried out, it started working again.

This past year I bought a 08 Silverado 1500 all my kit in the back under a hard topper it's nice knowing all my bits of kit has its own place

Love the new custom saddle! Been doing tree work for almost two years and really enjoying my time, hope to be doing it for a long time so I appreciate all the new regulations and safety what-have-you’s but something can be said for when you’re footing the bill for gas and time for doing things in an efficient manner you’ve learned just about your whole life. Appreciate the videos, would love to see some more pruning advice videos personally

Such an epic channel,and group of folks!

Nice video August. Most Birches here are river birch and I have never seen mistletoe in any. It's all over our oaks. A video memory showed up in my feed this morning. Shows a friend of ours dropping a huge Tulip Poplar in our yard. Russ was a lumberjack in Oregon. He pointed out where he was going to drop it, and he did. Right on the line.

I love the truck that Jacob (from GuiltyofTreeson) has. I always wanted at utility truck like that, something you can store all of your tools in the correct places with locable doors so you know that your kit is safe. Maybe even have a toeing hitch adapter on the front and back so that you can hook a winch up to it as well. I don't like the open nature of the back of the truck (Jacob has a bar that he slides through all of the rear handles of the saws so he can lock them in place, but still not keen on that). My solution would be a ridged with 2 doors, a bit like a wardrobe lieing on it's back. Lockable and safe for all my random kit that I 150% know that I'd end up getting 😂😂 A crew cab version would probably work really well for you, too 👍👍👍👍

The only 1/4" .043 bar I've used that lasts a long time is a Cannon Carver. The performance isn't great with the hard nose, but the tip doesn't explode. A few companies are switching to .325 pitch narrow kerf.

Love the vid, great tree work as always. Loved the ring tone! Makes me want to get current and fly. I haven't been up in a long time. I thought I commented on that a while ago, It either didn't post or got deleted. I did mention another KZfaq channel in the post, my apologies if that's poor KZfaq etiquette.

thumbs up for the dialed arborist activity, subscribed for the custom saddle. Keep at it, August.

Great catch. Always pleasure. 👍

My thoughts are a short bed pick-up truck with a topper. Keeps your equipment out of the weather. Keeps the fumes, gas, and bar oil spills out of the passenger compartment. Bonus points if the topper has side windows that open. You can also hang your ropes and saddles up so they stay out of any messes on the floor of the bed. Tint the windows dark and lock it up if theft is a problem in your area.

The bed slide video will remain on the top shelf with rest of my favorite items.

I like your think pattern & words of wisdom. --__--

Something like Reon Rounds setup may work, a roof rack with the aero rec equip thule topper, puts all his climb gear, PPE, saws, and a bit a rigging equip in it...

I remember the Video you posted years ago where you invented the rope mount camera thing... was awesome God bless stay safe. I'm ordering my second 1.0 tonight 🤪 climb on brother 🙏

That was a very nice video and where is this area located because its pretty with all of the trees along with those hills in the background.

I’m old school as you know ! Nice to see you looking well

Thanks for making the videos, theyre great! Hey when you climb another tree about this size can you show how you rig in? At some point i noticed a rope from the top but bever saw you put it in.

Very nice working by yourself. This is what I want to do

Great vid. Birches are beautiful, hate to see them go😪 my favorite tree, right after Beech🙂

There were some smooth moves in this one.

Nice work man

I would love to se you in a short bed regular cab, all stickered up with your logos, and your best kill kit in it. Could be interesting to see how a pro would set it up 👍

Best intro ever

Solo tree work! good to see it man ... awesome vid

I work out of a 2006 Hummer. Nice work.

That custom saddle is awesome

Outstanding!

Ok it might be the best battery chainsaw but you had to beat it up to get it to work! LOL glad it finally did work and got the job done. I enjoyed watching you do this job. See you at the next job site!

A one ton pickup is essential for small jobs like that. All the tools in the truck and no saw dust in the car. My four man gang is three in the Toyota crew cab with the chip box. Me in the Isuzu crew cab with the tools and a chipper. I can finish the cutting and leave them to tidy and unload, then send them home while I fix all the broken toys.

Sometimes I wish I worked for a skilled climber but I got paid great to be a highly productive bucket baby for someone who wouldn’t do the bucket work himself, his dad started the company. I’ve probably only climbed maybe 20 trees but now I’m self employed again I’m going to get some climbing gear and do what I can when I can’t get a lift to the jobs. I’ll probably never be as good as climber as August but I humbly admit I’m similar skill level at cutting.

I always enjoy your videos! Keep up the good work and may God bless. 21:32

Great vid and FYI husqvarna has a new battery saw coming out it’s the T542ixp.

Great one = *AUGUST* ! You've got SUCH a way of putting us (not just the camera) in the tree with you and you talk & it feels I'm on a limb across from you! How long did it take for YOU to develop that technique? And it sounds like you have a cold so take care of that. And that saw seemed to do a good job (once you beat it!)

Definitely the best battery saw

Wow when u topped it that was a very cool technique

BTW A custom hunting saddle that is a little more comfortable than what is available might sell well. Tethrd and Aero Hunter make the ones I'm familiar with. That would be a big market to crack into.

We like how adaptable you are and how you make it work by yourself. Amazing content, thank you! I wonder what will start making the T540ixp's fail, they are so good now, but guiltyoftreeson channel, said his stopped working. If you get a small toyota tacoma you wont regret it.

love my 2018 GMC Canyon.

"You're only virtually there" That was great.

The makita and that Husky are pretty good. My $200 14 " skil is not as good as those two you used. the chain always gets loose.

That little Milwaukee I tried with the 16" bar is no joke.

VERY NICE TOP

I had a 2020 Nissan Frontier 4x4 long box for a couple years. It was nice but I always wondered about long-term reliability with the new generation motor and 9sp transmission. Weird circumstances had insurance total it out. A sign that I wasn't meant to have a new vehicle like that and so I'll either get an old 2wd GMC/Chevy long box to daily drive or else maybe an older S10. Something to keep the miles off of my '03 Dodge Cummins. I may have to get my 93 Dodge back from my brother as I more enjoy a mechanical diesel.

Yeah, pretty tall all right. Glad it was live enough to still be solid, birches go bad inside quick-

Great plan

Great product

Hello, love the show brother man!!! Quick question, can you explain how you strap the top of your spurs?

Sam is crushing those custom orders

Saddle looks sharp

I started using camel packs for water instead of water bottle holders. Ever try those? It worked really slick! I wonder if that's something that could be somehow built into the harness. Anyway, probably a stupid idea - but I sure love being able to just sip on water all day long with just a bite valve. Keep up the great videos!

Great video! ❤❤❤

I commented on your last vid, about the makita, and how my 18v makita is OK for what it is. However! One of the main annoyances it has is that when the sarea under the "clutch cover" where the sprocket is gets ful of oily sawdust, it causes the saw to not want to start. Kind of like how that 36v makita won't start if the bar is touching something. It's like if there is ANY resistance ( chain too tight can do it too) the thing won't even spin up. So maybe that's what was going onwith this one at the beginning of the video!

EVERY man needs a truck

Id be interested to see what bar you go for next. I love the 16" on my 540i but sick of the nose splitting I am on my 3rd. The quality doesn't seem to be there but not much else on the market.

That Husky is solid, it’s just still too heavy for my taste. I’m waiting for the battery equivalent of the echo 2511 power to weight ratio to come out, and it will happen. The technology will catch up.

The green truck was a legend.

5:38 I had the act thing happen when I was at Davey. I was not as patient as you though. I swapped saws. When I got back to the shop I told the manager and when I went to show him it worked fine... Never happened again🤷🏼‍♂️

My youngest just bought a 1977 Chevy truck. Looks nice but needs a bit of work yet. Has a 454 in it, which is a bit much imho. Hope the crew / family and you are doing well. God Bless.

Love my Toyotas. Had a Tacoma, thing was great. Just get a 6 ft bed with an extended cab for a little extra storage but not having a limo of a truck lol

Wow love that dbz saddle thats awesome

SWEET SADDLE and video August!

Szép munka 👍

Nice catch man that one almost snuck past ya!

I loved the El Camino.

Break cut work good on big piece in boom

Always wanted to try out a battery powered saw but still on the fence about there reliability .. Nice removal 🤙🏻

Have a 2012 Tacoma, Toyota replaced the frame free of charge 3 years ago( yes it was past warranty) due to rust proofing problem. Dealer had the frame changed in 4 days! Toyota has my loyalty. The phone call to pick up my truck after oil change/tire rotation and then oh, we have to replace your frame. Wait what!!! I asked if they could drop the engine when they’re changing the frame but had to settle for 1/3 new truck. Toyota baby!!!

That saddle is sick

I still run 3x 200ts, my favourite go to saw

Love the "talks"

Rock the Mad Max truck.....that thing is cool. 😎

Still no release date on the T542. Excited for that one.

I am just a home owner and I switched to battery powered saws, but they not fit for a professional use out in the middle of the woods. About 11 or 12 cuts on a 20" diameter oak is all I can got with a Stihl MSA300, for a day work I with need a truck load of batteries. The saws are great no doubt about but battery technology still light years away.

Pretty sure I know the answer but can the new Oregon Nano bar run the Panther 1/4p chain?

I guess your signature is having a limb reverse and go back up at least once in every video

Was the best electric saw title ironic 😂😂 let’s go husky

r u going to naom? if so I wanna buy one of those cell phone holders from ya.. I am heading thru on the 5th but later..
