Big Cedar tree, respect guys im a treeworker in the Netherlands, but we dont have pines like these, Nice job
Great job!!! Echos have always been my saw of choice. Knowing the work involved in that tree all I can say is you're in super shape:)
Wow...I never would have thought it's interesting watching this
Bravo to this very Brave & Skilled man. It's people like him who risk their lives that deserve the Oscars and Emmys. You'd think with all the GMO scientists out there, that they would steer their focus on creating more dwarf trees in most of the popular species!
Man, you're one of the most brave heart that I ever seen in my life. Best wishes from IRAQ.

I had an awesome friend who worked for Northpower in Whangarei for 20+ years. One day he phoned asking if I wanted some 'old man' pine for firewood. I said yes and there was 5 truck loads of big rings on my driveway the next day! Split it all and sold it. Miss you heaps Aster Failano.
Nice editing and you make hard work look easy.
Stihl makes a small 200 top handle you would love. It comes with a 12 in bar but we are running 14 and 16 in on them and they do great. We have 3 of them and love em. Great climbing and cutting technique there fella ! That was one knarly tree.2 days of that and your legs were probably telling you all about it eh, LOL. We got a couple steel lined Kevlar ropes too that are amazingly light and flexible and will stop a chain in the track. Just a little extra feel good while you are up there. I am retired now as my knees gave up so this was a great trip to the past. I am from BC Canada and did my share of helicopter work on 300 ft west coast wood crabbing from stem to stem. I really like your style. All I do now is some safety and dream of the old days. Thanks again bud. New sub for ya too.

Thank you for the comment! I run a stihl ms201t now, I got it not long after this job but I did like the echo saw for the price. It did me well! I am planing to move to BC next year for some contract climbing and Id love to work with a log building company to gain the skills to build my dream log home back here in New Zealand one day. Your trees and logs in Canada are amazing. I was in the rocky mountains snowboarding earlier this year for 4 weeks, drove from Calgary to Edmonton, where I visited my aunty and uncle. Then to lake Louise, Banff, Golden, Revelstoke, Whistler and finishing in Vancouver to fly home. I fell in love with the country, scenery and the people! I cant wait to be back.
God bless the brave ax man. I myself is scared of standing on a six foot ladder. He’s good. Fascinating. Require patience and know how. Safety the most important.
Wow ... nice work! You know it's a serious twig when you break out the 880 whilst you're still on a line... I dread to think how much raw material you had to wade through to put that together! Thanks for taking the time it was well worth it. Subbed!

Thanks mate! Good advice, I am very cautious with business partnerships. The tree game can be hard, being organized and communication between clients and contractors is important. It is getting hard to find good help and that's why being a climbing contractor working between several companies works out well for me aswel as the company I'm helping.

Cambridge is one of the lovelier towns in NZ . i haven't been there for almost 50 years but still have nice memories of being there on cool winter mornings .I have probably seen that tree in it's younger days. I think if it were near my home I'd want it dropped or trimmed .
What an incredibly confusing tree to watch, I am sure it looked different to you. But looking through your camera I couldnt tell what was what. Great job doing it safely and thanks for sharing. Glad you are doing the job cause I wouldnt want anyone to ask me to do it.

nice work man !!
what is the consensus on the new echo trim saw vrs stihl? personally I think they are comparable on performance with the exception of the echo's chain tension not staying tight. with that being said if echo fixes that then Stihl maybe in trouble considering the huge savings echo offers.
Now that was an intricate tree. What a job.

All I can say mate is it looked like you grabbeld the bull by the horns and didn't let go until you was back on the ground and the job was done. Thanks for a outstanding videol. I love the way you cut the limbs and chunks of the trunk off and let them fall. you know you job I could tell it by the way you done the cutting of the tree. How much cutting time do you get per chain after you sharpend them. Good luck and be safe.
Yeeeaah, you’re Skihl the best.

Great skills to be working with little margin for error. Some of the upper branches went down real close to the house

So much detail down twigs and the thick trunks of the end do not appear ... you ran out of memory of the camera?
When taking down trees, do you ever have to worry about weight distribution and the balance of the tree?

It's being developed and landscaped. But it would make more sense to fill some holes and re grass than it would be to rig every piece down.. even if it wasnt to be developed. You could almost add a whole nother day if we were trying to look after the lawn. At a cost of almost $2000/day. Hope that changed your mind.

Oh no, I was being sarcastic. If a homeowner wanted a tree removed, but had more interest in his grass, then his priorities are mixed up or either he is stupid. I did this the pieces you rigged down was cool to see in operation. I'm in agreement, it's easier to fix the lawn than to deal with the tree.
