A good ground man is worth his weight in gold. Can't do much when your up, if your ground guy is sitting on his butt.

Yep, Fred is the shit.

Thanks =)

Thanks, hope the best for you

ultra farmer bananas also help with cranks plus they prevent them as well because of the potassium and magnesium plus all fruit actually can help with the symptoms of dehydration and hydroglycimia

Long as you are burning the kcals (and can take a piss break now and then) a bit of Gatorade powder or the like in a Camelback makes it easy to keep hydrated.

lol

It's a poplar

Love it

Not only for the cramping, also for mental clarity and fatigue. While its not the best on the market, it is one of the most readily found, i drink gatorade. Just leaving this here for people.

Oh yeah, that from Dan the tree man.

Probably a tree hugger and I love trees too but hello sometimes they have to be cut down. Anyhow it reminds me of a favorite joke. Once a tree hugger hugs a lumberjack they never go back to hugging trees.

Jefferson

@@jeffersonaguilar6504 Ok lol

Thanks =)

I know for me its the sound of the chainsaw :)

I did just that on this one. Went down some from my highest tie in point, tied off with my lanyard, and reset my tie in after pulling it down from above.

36"

Chris Brown how do you know this but no one else does? I’ve seen several use that set up, when the rope wrench is disengaged that means there is no weight on it...

Agreed. I have a Zigzag and almost never work out of it. I'm tempted to try a rig like this it's just not worth the risk. There are other tools available to do the job. It is noteworthy that he seems to only uses that rig for attentions. You can catch glimpses of his working rig at various point of the job and he's switched over to DdRT.

Brian Townsend I am not the only one who knows this. It’s in the user manual for the zig zag. It is only for use with a doubled rope. Also, just because you have seen someone use something in a particular way many times, does not mean it is the correct use of that thing. I’m not sure you understood my comment. There is no concern about weight on the rope wrench, the concern is about uneven distribution of the climber’s weight between the friction chain and connection point of the zigzag. Each point is meant to have exactly half the climber’s weight on it. This is not possible with the rope wrench / zig zag combo.

I think he likes to show off all his gear and climbs with as much as possible where I keep it simple and keep it as minimal as possible myself

Yeah. Looks like I was wrong about it not being safe. Just saw a great video of break testing the zig zag rope wrench combo. Very thorough and detailed. Video was by Patrick Brandt.

Peter B. Saloom how many wraps to take on “porta-wrap”. Basically a drum u use to add friction. Thus making possible for a man to lower 500 pound pieces of wood with 1 hand lol (porta-wrap lowering device)

Don't have one, it was the companies I worked for at the time.

That's an altec elevator, 70'.

Tulip

OK, Thanks. Lumber from the Tulip tree is typically sold as Yellow Poplar.

bart degryse little thing called a throw line that is cast into a weight bearing section of the tree.. and from there the life line (rope) is attached and pulled through *climb dependent

Like the zigzag, like the spiderjack a bit more though.

Stumps depends on the customer, but generally we grind them out. I cut out a bit a first to keep the but away from the tree, often have gear wrapped around the base that I don't want to hit.

schommer75 keep the bigger saw that way if you ever need the power for whatever reason you have it. because you don’t want to be in situation where you need more saw and not have it

Not familiar with either so I can't really say

Human thanks for your time! Love the content

Tried everything with the cards, bought a bunch of new ones, nothings helped.

Holding up well so far.

A unique whistle sound.

jonathancwthayer@gmail.com

Yeah, if it's worth it we take the logs back to the shop until we've enough to make it worthwhile to have somebody come out and grab them.

Didn't go up high enough so I had to climb anyway.

I love the sound of a big tree hitting the ground.

Was all OJT at first, and then books/online resources.

sucks =( multiple dan the tree mans? Really sucks lol

Husky 562

Yep, variety of reasons, mainly laziness though.

Not the card, bought several new ones testing that, all approved by gopro.

Love it

It was nice, I kinda miss it

What happened to it?

was a company saw @@RockIslandguy

Working for someone else now or on your own? Have a good day human.

I figured it out after I got caught up on your vids.

True story. Today Sat in Philadelphia Pa. Hero college thrill show. Firefighter in obstacles corse. The team that lost, was unable to start power saw to open hatch/hole in plywood . I was quite a distance,but the case was orange. Hmmmm

If you watch videos of professional lumberjacks and loggers working cutting down trees all day out in the middle of nowhere, they all have Husky’s.

So when the larger piece falls it is away from the tree a bit, keeps pieces from slamming back into the trunk as much, especially if you've a portawrap or something similar wrapped around the base.

@@Human1337 thank you ! I met a professional tree guy in Bude,MS, he and I BOTH laughed when we realized we watch your videos !!

lol, was 95 with heat index of 103 on that day.
