You don't realize how nice and quiet the battery-operated is, until they fire up the gas model.

Please don’t wear your wedding rings. You know you’re married. I speak from experience, I lost my finger when the ring caught on a nail as I fell 10”..don’t kid yourself about the silicon ones either. Stay safe.

Raoul was a awesome guy to work with, he's a really chill guy, it was quite interesting hearing Raoul talk about the costs of living in Mexico compared to what it is in the US, and how relaxed it is living in Mexico. The whole crew did an excellent job, working with a great bunch of guys like this would make the entire job go so much more easy and pleasant to do. Cheers for a mighty fine reel, Jake.

You gotta love a crew where boss man can take a fall and just start laughing

That hidden tank in the trailer is pretty slick.

A movie length video Jacob? You're spoiling us dude!❤️

That pink tree out front was glorious!❤❤❤

The owner seems real cool and chill. Awesome work to everyone!

The pink dogwood is gorgeous!

This was a great, LONG video! The crew you were working with were great too! I loved the stories about winters in Mexico! ❤❤❤

That joke about not eating in days is hilarious

Yall work together well and enjoy the conversation ... very cool great relationship

I live in an area with a lot of heavy hardwood. Oak, hickory, Osage orange. It’s all heavy, but the heaviest wood I’ve ever messed with by far is sycamore. Tons of water weight, the tree was right next to a creek though. Nice video Jake!

I enjoy watching an experienced crew work together. Everything flows smoothly.

Nice Dogwood, never seen one that big here in Ohio....looks like there is another one down the street, about the same size. Judging from their size, the Sycamore was planted at same time, Dogwoods grow real slow. Kool trick @17:38👍👍be safe Jacob.

The industry I worked in for 40 years didn't allow us to wear our wedding rings. Then we merged with another company and they didn't care, but I was so used to not wearing mine, I never changed. It simply wasn't a good idea to have something that could get hooked on something and rip your finger off. Also, I love the conversations you have with the ground guy. You guys are professionals and to be able to do your job and still have a good time talking while doing the work is awesome. You do your work very safely!

Awesome Jacob. Working with Big R's, y'all function as a great team. that was a beast!

Censor Saw...gotta get me one of those 😂

Hi from Virginia, that was one beautiful dogwood there. Flowering dogwood is Virginia's state tree. Greatly enjoying your channel. Stay safe!

This guy is golden like your other guy Randy?…. The back and forth conversation is great.

Long one but held my attention from start to finish! Great job guys

Well that's a top 10 vid. gd, great job. Shout out to Raul and crew for that well-oiled ground crew machine and getting me learnt on tortes.

Thumbs for Big R s Fords!!

It's amazing how well this has gone for you, Jacob. Im happy for you.

Absolutely stellar video! Thanks so much! Love the running commentary!!!

I've finally used a chainsaw for some small work around the house, and the experience showed me how incredibly skilled you are. I could see your expertise before trying small work myself, but the ease with which you do the basics (things that require a novice to concentrate and still mess up) is awe inspiring.

We just finished two sycamore logs on our sawmill. They were very heavy. A 2" by 6" by 9' weighed 33 lbs! The biggest log yielded 48 2 by 6's. It smells sweet and is a pale orange.

Sadly I'm in a bad situation right now and could use a blessing! I love your videos, you have taught me a lot in our way of making a living! I lost alot and could use some help to get back to my family and in the trees. May God keep us safe and bless us all! Your fellow Tree man from Texas! ❤

Love that trailer. What a tree. Great work team. Enjoyed listening to the banter.

another super video Jake. awesome job with BigR & Isaac

Hasn’t been enough of you lately. Really enjoyed this long one.

Please continue with contract climbing ,its great entertainment an a good changeup from regular stuff.

Wow, that must have been an epic climb! Thanks for sharing!

Really nice job. Big tree! You even dug the customer a new fresh water natural spring. 😅 Great video, thanks.

Great job once again love your vlogs best wishes from Tasmania Australia 🇦🇺

MAN...that was amazing watching you guys do this beast! Your skill set is awesome. You guys work amazingly well together. that battery saw was also pretty amazing. Keep up the great work and have a safe summer.

A great vid enjoyed watching a skilled operator!!!

The neighborhood may have lost their favororite shade tree. My oh my, that was an awesome job all the way around! Mesmerized by the entire crews ability of making a tree removal of this huge size look easy! ♥️👍 Impressive to say the least.

Zacchaeus Was a wee little man a wee little man was he, he climbed up in a sycamore tree to see what he could see, for the Lord he wanted to see, and as that Savior came that way he looked up in that tree and said Zacchaeus, you come down for I'm going to your house today. A wonderful song for children small and large! Great tree work mate.

I love Raul's tree service, awesome job!

This video is truly amazing, it made me happy! 😊

Ash is one of the easiest splitting woods and huge BTUs when you burn it. Michigan. But,, all the ash trees are dead, emerald ash borer from China.

Thanks for sharing your knowlage and awsome jobskills 💪🏻😃

Awesome ground crew. What a nice guy.

Great job, great video, great team!

That was sick bro! Gagging just thinking about it, good thing you did it before it gets hot.

Love that you are back with this crew! Do they have their own channel?

Truly satisfying to watch professionals performing their trade.

GREAT job yanking on the ropes here! Strategic cuts made so the chunk will slowed/stopped by another stem, but buddy, those ropes need timed even more. Cat's a climber's dream. Hope you made sure he had belly of beer for protecting you! Any GOOD climbers' gonna take care of his insurance, don't cheap out fella's.

Awesome work!!!

Cool Dude to Work For!

Hell yeah Jake nice rigging! We craned out a similar size sycamore last week and we couldn’t believe how heavy the picks were. Good thing we were being conservative with the load chart!

Jake you gotta be making it partner, most commercials I’ve ever seen on a video. Great job and many blessings to you and yours.

Raoul is a Great around guy, Great eyes on the ground Great to see you working together again shame it's only now & then

What a funky tree. Good work

The owner was a very interesting Dude to listen to talking about his home country!

Raoul needs to have a sock puppet on his right hand when he narrates on camera

Love your videos been a subscriber for almost a year

Awesome tree and video.

We have lots of these Plane Trees here in the UK and some of them do get VERY big - 6 feet across at the base easily. Good teamwork to take this one down.

"You guys have a lot of ash in Idaho?" "Yeah tons." "It seems like that's all he cuts over there." "Oh yeah, dead ash." Jake is quick with the jokes.

monster Syc. Great job rigging bro.

Great vid. Called london plains here in sydney n yer dam itchy sometimes n heavy. Cheers

Think we call those trees London plane trees in Australia 🇦🇺 😊 awsome video yet again

Best video yet!

The American sycamore (Platanus occidentalis) is a North American tree with many common names, including: American sycamore, Western plane, Water beech, and Buttonball tree.

Yoooo love tap on the wires is wild

Big Sycamore...Great video.

Great job Jake!

Enjoyed the video. Nice climbing, limbing, rigging and chunking. A! ground workers especially rope man. Thanks for sharing. Oh, what did you break with the water flowing out?

Nearly 90mins! Like a Saturday night movie! Normally I'd baulk at that but enjoyed every minute. Fascinating to hear about Mexico. Been on my bucket list a long time. Love the food, the culture, the people but have never been there. Tasty big tree. Hope someone makes something nice out of the wood. The Stein RC - I believe the RC stands for Reg Coates who had a major hand its design. Best, Mark

"you don't need to get him anything" man I want to come work with you guys

This seems like such a fun and cool job to have! If only I wasn't so darn scared of heights!

Those were good photos/video of Jake chunking down the main trunk

Awesome job Jacob

Raul is a solid dude!

Outstanding job! Can you talk about the saws you use and what you like about each?

"A masterpiece of nature painted in shades of rose and blush - a pink tree standing tall, its beauty a feast for the senses."

I liked that he tried to explain tortas without ever mentioning the fact that it was a type of sandwich

Starting the saw by dropping it and holding the starting cord, then flicking it up into your hand! That's called experience.

Nice job on that huge tree!

A pleasure to watch

That’s a big boi 🌳💚

I’m horrible w the bowline so I always use the cow hitch when we pull tops and trees over bc we have a piece welded on the skid that we put a shackle on that makes it easier. Never thought of using it in the tree, the climbers I’ve been around always use the bowline

Wow, I learned something new today. I didn't realize some dogwoods have pink flowers. All of our dogwoods here in Arkansas have white flowers.

You are so lucky. I saw it touch the wire. I was roping for my boss like 20 years ago and he cut a top out,a double leader about 35 or 40ft. And as soon as the top fell and 45° straight out it touch the top wire and he had his hand on the butt preparing to sling ,as to miss the metal shed below. But he let out a horrible creepy scream right after the limb made this brrrrrgp sound which was so load. I thought seriously his hands had to be blown to bits,but he didnt grip the tree it was leaving his hands when it touched the line. Dude i was all shook up. He was like dangling and freaking out screaming ,i froze me up for a second. But he recovered and was able to get out the tree and onto the house. Were he sat and just shook for like 30 mins. But yeah you are so lucky.. always trust your gut.. you called it from the start. You said they looked close.. you was right.. dont let the ground men tell you shit.. your up their,they are down there.. ive been climbing and cutting 30 years. One day your gunna look at this job on a whole other level. If you stay in it you got a long way to go. But im cheering for ya. You kinda remind me of me. I could always be put into a good mood after cutting with a sharp saw.. i still love that feel. And the sound. I 100% have sap running thru my veins.. there is no other job that can compare to tree work. And i was worked like a slave the first 10 years. But im so glad they did what they did. It made me feel like a warrior. You know i just was looking at some of my old stuff and i found my 2004 SHERRILL TREE MAGAZINE...TIME IS MOVING SO FAST. I WISH I COULD GO BACK TO THEM DAYS. SUCH A GREAT TIME IT WAS..LIFE GIVES US THIS ONE SHOT. I HOPE IVE MADE A DIFFERANCE.. THANKS FOR POSTING ,, START PAYING MORE ATTENTION.. THERE IS NO TREE WORTH LOSING YOUR LIFE OVER. DONT EVER LET YOUR PRIDE GET TO ENVOLED. ITS VERY DEADLY AROUND A TREE CITE/ JOB...THANKS AGAIN FOR UPLOAD, GREAT JOB..

Great video! I was wondering how much of a ride that was going to be when you made the cut at 24:36 :)

That big saw sounded scary like a ghost woo woo woo. lol

We have a big Holly tree to cut down at my brother's place .. it's at least 15" in diameter! That thing is like cutting through iron wood!

great videos

I would love to have some of that larger crotch wood to turn some bowls! Nice job.

That's tiny compared to sycamores in Indiana...still very big around, good work! :)

I didn’t know you were in Enumclaw, that’s insane!

I agree typically dogwoods don't get very big, I have a condo (was built in the 1920's) that's on the third floor here in Atlanta and there's a beautiful dogwood out in the courtyard that shades my patio as its a bit taller than the building ( actually Googling the tallest dogwood tree I should probably reach out to Tree Atlanta and have it officially measured).

i love sycamore’s we have a lot where i’m from love from ny!

You should not wear you rings when doing any kind of manual labour or sports. It just gets hung up on stuff, and if you hurt yourself and swell up, it's going to cost you the finger. Ring avulsions is a reported cause of injury 150,000 times each year and make up 5% of hand injuries.

I just got a 2511 in yesterday, so stoked with it. How do you like it??

I've cut down some monster sycamores here in Kentucky. Last year on a timber plot we got we cut one a little under 8 1/2 foot though. Always love the content and would love to invite you to our logging jobs anytime in Kentucky you like to visit.

We have huge Sycamore’s in NJ. Must have been the tree of choice along with the oaks. Then there is the pinelands. Wow sounds like I may want to move to Mexico. Relaxed lifestyle.

great job safely taking down that huge Sycamore tree, what variety was it? just amazing the spread of the branches! definitely a hard wood just by the cuttings from the saw. how old was the tree? they are listed as fast growing, and common life of 200 years, up to 500 to 600 years! just a staggering life span.
