Just used one and it's perfect. A person can easily use it solo. Never imagined it would be that easy

Just made my own- because one is $60. Used 2. 100ft ropes n existing chainsaw chain. I used two key rings to attach rope to chain

Excellent job and it was done safely. I’m going to need this technique to make a couple of cuts on trees and bushes around my home. Great info and video. 👍

I wondered about those, and now I'm glad I searched. Y'all made it informative and very entertaining.😂 Liked and subbed. 👍 Thanks for sharing!✌️

Very cool and interesting. Thank you.

Great how-to video. Thank you

Rope Saw is a very useful tool. Has its limits, like anything. I'll have to try with a second person as you suggest. The snagging as the branch twists has always been a challenge for me using the Rope Saw solo.

Perfect! Thanks :)

Great....thanks for the tips

Awesome job!

entertaining and informative, thank you

Bungie cords on the other side hooking on to something stable and acting like it is a person helping you to saw.

Johnny ripe cute in the house!!!! Surprised you guys actually made a proper pruning cut on the branch callor

There goes the swing for your children 😂😂😂

Great demonstration!!

Cool beans!

I’ll be getting one.

the thing that worries me on these "double-sided" blades is maintaining it. only takes a moment for the blade to become dull if it runs into the wrong thing and doesn't seem it'd fit into my Oregon sharpener as a traditional blade would. how are u putting a new edge on this when needed?

I bought this the other day .. literally the same one . But I was throwing the part with the chain on it .. 😔.. and it just wasn’t grabbing .. literally was about to return but I’m going to give it one more try in the morning after watching this lol

FYI, the ring near the weight is used to loop the line through, then windmill the line in an underhand rotation, releasing the loop/weight - allows the weight to gain velocity and snatch the thin rope to heights of 75 feet plus..

if you're working alone you can tie the other end of the rope to a springy sapling.this also keeps the chain at a shallower angle and easier to start cut.thanks for sharing your thoughts on this suject.stay safe and lucky.naddog.off grid.West cork republic of Ireland

A bow and arrow can get a string up high. Start with fishing line then pull rope up

Dang that thing is kicking some chips !

@2:33 I would’ve had to give a little tug at least a couple times just to mess with him. “Ooohhh you almost had it!” Great video

funny how when you're on your own the string and weight goes exactly where you want it,but if someone is watching I keep missing.lol.maddog

What brand is that rope chainsaw?

What brand of rope saw was that you are using? Where did you buy it?

Can we auy this in soce estore please ? Thanks for the video

As the camera went down and I saw that light below that limb @3:08, I knew it was about to meet its demise. @3:26, I can hear it crunch lol. I want to buy this saw but am concerned it will turn on its side and not cut properly. Did you have any issues with it rotating and the blades not engaging the wood, as there is nothing I can see that will keep it oriented with the blades down like a chainsaw. Thanks. update, well i should have read further down, you answered the question.

what make is that rope saw that you are using? Thank you.

Link does not work.

"Watch till the end" this one 😆

Look up " how to use a heaving line "

If you don't have help I wonder if you could tie a bungy strap to the other side.

what prevents it from flopping over in its side instead of cutting on one of the edges ?

Yeah, try that on a tree that is alive or green. Dead wood is super easy to cut.

Yeah but could this be done by a person alone

You can be off to the side pulling both ya know

All good and fine, but those uneven breaks are inviting to insects.

price plaese

got a link?

My biggest concern here is that these cuts are terrible for the tree. Unless a lot of care is taken, you're going to create a wound that the tree will not be able to compartmentalize, i.e. build new tissue over to prevent decay. Look into ANSI pruning standards for more info. Having said that, I will probable still be getting this tool.

That tree looks dead

stepping back in time, with no control over the limb being cut. I see Domestic accidents to follow this fad!! Sorry.

BUENA LA HERRAMIENTA DE CORTE. MUY DIVERTIDO AL FINAL CON LA DESPEDIDA JAJAJAJAJAJA😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

will this work on a human torso

There is a trick to get to the high branches or branches in vicinity of other branches. Use telescopic tool such as for window cleanning. These come up to 25' long after extending all sections. You can also tape additional 2" x 2" lumber to extend by additional 8 or 12 feet.

That is absolutely not like the chain on your chainsaw. What a thoughtless comment.

The weight on the string is technically called a “Johnny ball”. Used by arborists to sling rope over one lead or trunk anchor point up high for control of lowering another lead once cut below. 🤙🏼
