    Great video Billy! Just found your chanel. As a 56 year old cereer changer, from fysiotherapy to treeclimber and one year in my own business i like your aproach and tips for us new guys. I´ve done a lot of different tree jobs this year, learned a lot and the only thing i regret is that i didn´t do it earlier🙂

    Great video! Im from surrey, uk and have been climbing for about a year and a half now. I find youtube videos have helped me so much to improve and and new techniques to my climbs to speed up my work. Its nice to see some UK tree work as i feel there isnt loads of people on youtube showing our work. I feel your video will definitely help someone looking to become a climber or just starting out.

    • @sawbandits
      @sawbandits  7 місяців тому

      Hi Tommy apologies for the late reply.
      That’s a good question but a hard one to answer because every job is different and needs a different approach but it is very important to have groundsman that have good experience on the ground and willing to put a good shift in if you take on a young lad or a newbie having also having an experienced groundsman will help him learn and leave the harder or more technical jobs to the experienced guy giving the climber and the new guy time to concentrate on their tasks. In a nutshell a good groundsman is worth his weight in gold.

    Good work I’m not a beginner going on 6-7 years now. But I do teach tree climbing as part of my full time job as a teacher at a vocational school. I teach them a lot of the same things you talk about in this video. Only thing I would say is instead of leaving branches sticking out for positioning purposes try spar device (I personally use a buckingham tree squeeze.) I tell, beginner climbers not to leave anything that could impale you if you were to slip.

      @@sawbandits Sure thing it works as a choking lanyard. The main part goes around the trunk or spar of the tree you’re working on, but it can also be used as a fraction saver. I tend to mostly use it doing spire work and chunking down the trunk of a tree once around the trunk of the tree, you simply feed your end of your DRT climbing system through the small ring and through the Big ring attach it back to you. Then adjust the ring that has the prusik till it’s at the tree. It’s tuff to see it and the video is unedited but I use it in my Father’s Day eve video to chunk down a spar of a red pine.

      Hi Maisy it all depends on what route you take. For example if you start off as a ground worker with no training it cans take years to get fully qualified but the company you work for will probably pay for your courses if you just want to pay for them yourself you could do it in a year but you would lack the on site experience. You would be looking at the guts of €10000 that would include chipper ticket Polesaw , groundsaw , and climbing and probably rigging in tree too I hope that helps
