I know this is going to sound weird but I really needed this video. I've been going through an ugly divorce over the last 8 months and it has been very stressful. Every time she gets me wound up I find that the sound of your voice, the scenery, the just relaxingly productive nature of your videos really helps calm me down and re-center me. Yes Dave, your videos are my therapy right now. Thank you for helping me through this mess.

Great job Dave getting the roof clear of those heavy trees without damage to the roof or you. Glad you had some good help.👍👍

Great job Dave! You got all the trees off the roof quickly, without breaking anything and nobody getting hurt!

Mr. Tree Worker Pro, do you screw 2x4's on trees because 'you don't trust ladders' also???

Glad you and Ryan were able to remove the trees safely. Years ago, my Father-in-law was badly injured when a limb sprung back and knocked him off an extension ladder 30 feet up a tree. Broke his shoulder and upper arm, smashed his wrist, and punctured his lung. Lucky he wasn't killed. I appreciate the care and precautions you took to get the job done without injury.

Great job clearing the roof guys, glad everyone was safe! ✌🏼❤️🙏🏼

I'm glad to see y'all got those trees off safely & without causing any additional damage. That roof must've been very well constructed.

Great video again Dave! Thanks for bringing us along!

You are really gifted in making these videos. You have nice background music that compliments but doesn't overwhelm. You keep a nice calm tone as you explain things and I always think you would have made a great shop teacher, but actually you are, just not in a school setting. Maybe I'll never have to do tree removal but I always enjoy the journey through your videos.

I can't ever remember a time I have enjoyed seeing trees getting cut. Great job and thanks for the video.

Good job!! Nicely done! Your previous experience cutting timbers came in very handy this round. Amazing that none of the branches poked through the roof and that the walls didn't give way from the huge weight of those trees. Glad that job is done. 😊

Well done gentlemen. I'm impressed you did that with no damage to the roof or yourselves.

As an experienced arborist you did this pretty well! I would say it would be good to learn basic notches for some work like this. For example, the large top you had to cut down. If you had a notch on the underside, you can do a slow back cut that would allow the top to pivot down from the hinge and rest on the roof. Tying it off like you did was a good idea, it would've just allowed for a more controlled lowering. As well as how you pulled the trunks off the other side with rope and truck. If you had put a notch that ran parallel with the walls and pulled that direction, the notch and hinge would have guided it that way, making it so there wouldn't be as much uncertainty of how it would react. Also chainsaw chaps are cheap and will help you keep your legs, I strongly recommend picking a pair up!

It was very enjoyable watching you and your brother clear those dangerous trees off the cabin roof. I'm glad you both stayed safe throughout the whole operation. It was nice seeing Brooke at the end, too.

Good job done. Cabin is looking better all the time. Plenty of wood for campfires for sure. Take care, Al

Brooke is so lucky to have a husband who is so down to earth talented! I love watching The Art of Chain Saws

Can’t wait to see the progression on this cabin! Keep the videos coming!

Another great video!! And I agree with you, those pole saws are game changer. Never thought that much of them until my neighbor convinced me to borrow his, instead of climbing a ladder through some thick mess of branches. I immediately saw their usefulness. Great tool to have in the arsenal.

Good job, Dave & Ryan. You reminded me of an episode from my very early teens. There was a tree that had rotted and blown over and was resting on our brick wall for so long. It wasn't seen as a priority so the thing rested against the wall for years because the adjoining property was undeveloped. I was standing with my uncle chatting and I rested my hand on the tree where it was touching the dividing brick wall. The tree snapped and swatted me down to the ground like a gigantic insect and landed on top of me. It happened so fast the only thing I remember was my uncle trying to lift the darn thing off me and asking me whether I was okay. Since that day I've had a healthy respect for trees. That's why the closest trees to my house are over a 1000 feet away :-) Stay safe guys!

I'm really impressed that there's no major damage to the roof after having that much weight drop on it. Look ls like a TON of firewood got rounded up! Nice. Come-alongs are a great piece of kit that a lot of people just don't seem to have time for. I find uses for mine all of the time rather than crying about needing an electric winch or hooking up to a truck and maybe sending someone to hospital. You're doing good, solid work.
