wow I cut trees for a living sometimes and really got scared the first few seconds of the video going up really high into air I don't know how to do it you got my respect man great work the view was azome from the top of the tree be safe and keep up the good work thanks for sharing your videos and knowledge
Cool stuff man. Hey, I gotta little constructive criticism for ya, something that would make your life easier: At 2:07, the operator flies you over to the place where you want to tie on a spider leg, and you are trying to wrangle those four long, heavy spider legs. Next time, I would ask the crane operator to cable up, and when the spider legs become a more manageable, comfortable length, you can just descend down to the spot you want to tie off the piece. Also: Try using a cow hitch instead of a bowline on a bight. The Cow Hitch cinches nicely, it's relatively easy to adjust the tension if you need to fine tune the balance of a piece. Work safe bud! Good work
Also looks like those spider legs could've been tied out further - the piece was a little tip heavy. You can see the slack in the butt-end spider leg and by the way the piece hangs when the crane takes it.
Wyatt Spruck I was the guy in the bucket for this part of the job. He worked so close to the ball to keep the piece balanced. Appreciate the feedback though. Since this video we have both moved on. He is in a management position with a different tree company and I finally got my break into the corporate IT world.
i've would love to do this kinda work only thing that's keep's me bored of not intrested in time is to always make the knobs or a rop e on the bracnh ur cutting off, i've would get so frustating then, but still awsome vid, :D
Dustin - I am a 25 year arborist, and I've watched a thousand UA-cam videos on tree work; Any guess as to why I made sure to click on this one? Hint: it has something to do with the thumbnail...😉
Samuel Luria ooooh ok haha. That is why I was confused. That isn't my arm. I am in the bucket. I was a Marine though which definitely added to the confusion because I didn't understand how you could tell. Idk about his tattoo though.
That is incredibly reckless and dangerous. you trust a crane operator with your life? serious. You guys are the reason the WCB is so high in our field.
Awesome video brother

bart degryse whaaaat?
After all that rigging the pick still backflipped why don't you use straps
nice job guys. hey look into buying some 12 foot endless straps, much faster and way easier. i've got some videos where i use them
Dude absolutely ridiculous .. Waynto much time to set that sling
Nice size pick, did you make those spider leg crane ropes, Ive only used straps but havent done much crane work.
That pic probably weighed 700 lbs wtf.????

Samuel Luria I have no idea why, but I am curious.
Because anybody with an F-4 tattooed on his arm is a good man in my book. 😉 ....(Grandfather?)

MIssouri Here
Likewise! Another KC tree guy here as well, nicely done!
Why don't you just tie a clove hitch instead of that mess of a bolin on a bite
nephilly87 *bowline
Semper Fi
you did not even cut anything
DEWIZZARD I actually made all the cuts.
Dustin Clark there is nothing in the video
DEWIZZARD @9:10 is the cut. The beginning was rigging
