    Good show man! I couldn't tell how far the branch was that was the "40th time ", I know what you mean. Lol. Didn't know if you've seen the Rope Logic telescoping tool, goes from 19" to 10 feet. Lightweight too. It's been a big help with me in reaching and advancing up in the tree as well. Ebay item number 264291504010.

      Big thanks! I forgot all about that tool but sounds like a great one for placing and retrieving lines. Better line placement is always worth it

    nice to see saws that work, I think I blew my dads 391 yesterday :( piston is all sorts of scored, maybe milling with a homeowner saw is a bad idea, on a good note, a piston wont be that bad to replace

      @@metaspencer I dont know exactly what this will be, since im hearing the 391 is a clamshell, havent looked, but I dont think its gonna coma apart like the rest im seeing (remove top cover, side covers, carb and block, then hammer out the wrist pin, swap piston and repeat but backwards)
      really hoping I can get it fixed easily, and hoping the cylinder isnt screwed up, since its not my saw and its almost brand new.
      weird feeling, like I cant tell if its my fault it blew (I was using it when it happened) or if its not my fault (It was my dads idea to mill with it, but I didnt ask before going out and milling this time)
      im gonna go with not my fault, was his idea to mill with it, and I was doing exactly what he said was ok, in fact I was running it easier than normal, rocking it in the cut (To take the corners off instead of plowing thru one long cut)

    How you liking that little Echo? I tried getting my guys to use it but unfortunately it sucks pruning Palms. Not so much the fronds but the boots. Anyway I wound I getting that Stihl 661 and my guys love it. It’s a great saw on ficus trees!

    • @metaspencer
      @metaspencer  3 роки тому

      That little Echo is light, which I like, but its only really good on the smaller soft woods just because it's underpowered. When it's good it's good and I really like it ... but I still climb with the most powerful top handle most of the times

    Nice work Spencer. Why do people wait until a tree is completely dead before they call the tree guys? I was at my brother’s camp today and noticed their large black ash is 1/3 dead. I told him he better get a tree guy in there before it’s toast or it’ll cost them even more.

      It's a complete rip off around here: the city runs a "landscape recycling center" and it costs about $100 per dump trailer to drop off, and everything has to be cut down to 6' pieces. So a chipper would be nice but I haven't gone that way yet
