    Hey. It’s not often I rig on my own but when I do i just run the rigging line through a crotch, then you can skip all the biners and slings. Thanks for a nice clip. Love the name of the channel. 😂😂

      @@megadosevitaminc8774 I'm a bit late to the party, but I'm wondering if you've realized you can tie the ground side across the property and tie the tree side up high where you're working and just use those carabiners and cinch ties to speedline the limbs down to the ground without messing with ropes between each cut.

    Nice job. The joys of working alone 😆.
    Why not use a zip line setup. Looks like plenty of places to go with it in front or put back depending on whether you're hauling the debris away or not.

    • @megadosevitaminc8774
      @megadosevitaminc8774  3 роки тому +2

      I have done it before and the bigger ones always seem to stop early then the line is too low. At least this way i can get my line back. Its always a pain by myself. Brush went out to my truck. Deck, hot tub, and shed in the way. Looks like tons of drop room from the video but its close to the deck. Thanks for watching...

      @@megadosevitaminc8774 I know what you mean about how it appears, never take a job based on pictures 😂.
      You can do a vertical zip line too, then you won't have to worry about them making it to the bottom/the line angle. It keeps the but end from flipping into whatever targets you have.

      Do you guys find getting the solo zipline super tight works best?
      I do like the idea of a control line + zip.
      But that’s a bit time consuming probably unnecessary

    A big figure of 8 would help with adding firiction into the rigging system so you dont have to take wraps around limbs. Good job tho

      Thanks. They r just some really cheap ones at the home depot. They are like 1 or 2 bucks each. Not rated for tree work but for small stuff they are fine. I just got some better ones off amazon. I will make a video of them soon. Heres a link to the cheap ones. Probably not the best idea to be using but gotta do what ya gotta do sometimes.
