    Electric chain saws make me think of an electric knife for wood. i had one to do minor trimming around the mobile home park i managed for years. loved it. resident simply plugged me in to their home, then i trimmed... i learned a lot from grinning veteran tree guys ,, laughing at my "Toy Saw" bless them! . easy and fun!

    Yes, I think the play by play is very interesting and valuable. It shows that every move you make is thought out and intentional. It's only fast because of experience, not because it's being done with very little attention/care.

    • @kevinhammatgameoftrees7080

      Efficiency is not rushing, it is the fluidity of decision making. August can out climb younger climbers not by strength and agility but by presence of mind and fluid decisions.

      Yeah it's the most fun thing to do in my opinion even more fun than climbing, I've been doing it a lot with dead trees recently. Although negative rigging a top and letting it run comes close to it.

    Great work August, occasionally we get pine plantations with red pines that are a hard pine and sturdy like those firs, 50 feet shorter in the Midwest:) The GRCS would prove useful in this application. I consider Greg Good a friend so I’m partial:) Thanks for all the great angles, the beautiful views all around you are awesome!

I have to customize all my rigs to accommodate my bionic leg because it's not just flesh and Bone It's a combination of robotics and carbon fiber and silicone gel that make up the bionic leg prosthesis holding it on is another story in the future things will be a little different my bionic will be connected directly to bone true Osteo integration I will be the cyborgmonkeybeaver p.s.
