There's a lot going on here that makes it wonderful. The aspect ratio makes the compositions really interesting, it's rare so see almost a 4:3 video. The exposure in some parts is just perfect - almost slightly under exposed giving it a moody feeling that fits the overcast day. The wide shots that linger as we get to see them working. Love it.
The soundscapes too! The rich rhythmic thuds, the crows, the chainsaws in the background. Lots of room for the sounds to breath and to transport you to the place and put you in that pensive mood fit for cutting down a half-century old beauty.
yeah, we had an august storm here, none of my trees fell in my living "wind" fence, 30-40 year old trees. Full canopy. It either needs to be a sick and also the quality of the soil + how moist it is can make a difference. The different way they grow roots is really fascinating, if it is sand or clay also impact their direction/depth.
@@Musicpins I chop occasionally, trees will stay up until you get them smaller than a damn pinky I swear. But all jokes aside, if you want to fell a tree without the hassle of 10000 chops to what is essentially a square branch holding the weight of a full grown (thats a bazillion / 4-7 tons for medium trees) tree; use a large toothed woodsaw and put the summer break forearm training to use at the directed angle that you are felling the tree. Should work well in most cases.
You know what's crazy? All of the mass they use to build all that strength out of... It all comes from air. CO2. Carbon dioxide. They pump water out of their leaves like crazy to get a tiny amount of CO2, because the carbon is the most important ingredient for their cellulose and lignin. All made out of sugars. All based on C6H12O6. Carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen. That's all a tree is. It gets it from the air by sweating like a pig, and it makes stuff with it you can make a house out of.
A couple of Irish lads were walking down the street, in search of a job. They came up to a wall upon which some listings were posted, with one catching their eye: "Tree Fellers Needed". One looked at the other and said "ah, 'tis a pity there's only two of us!"
this video is so beautiful because its making me realize how much care and effort went into cutting down only one tree. when we live in a world where we have machines that can do it in only a couple seconds its very moving to see the process of really getting to know the tree before it is cut down.
I am a blacksmith as well as a wood worker and I love your video's I find alot of insperation for my own prodjects from watching them. I have plans to replicate a lot of the antique hand tools you use and I am learning more and more.
I am impressed. That was a joy to watch. That man knows how to handle an axe. He's clearly working with some incredible tools. Beautiful workmanship and clearly sharp. The cuts where so smooth. No raggedy cuts here. There was purpose and efficiency in his work. I subscribed. Love to watch a good craftsman. Kudos!
It feels strange to say, but this is the cleanest tree felling I've ever seen. I've seen loads of trees felled by hand that were not so carefully aimed, cleanly chopped, and done efficiently. Heck, I've seen chainsaw fellings that weren't this clean. It's strange. I think we're all so fascinated by this stuff because either we used to live lives of work like this and don't anymore, or we never had the chance because of the modernity we grew up in. It's lovely to see these skills still persisting and being treated as both art and function. It's always good to know how to do things the old-fashioned way. Someday you might need to. Power outages, lack of fuel for machines, or just plain lack of power tools may mean you need to know how to use an axe properly. I know I've been in a situation before where a chainsaw broke and we didn't have money to replace it. So we sharpened up a lumber axe and finished the job. It didn't take all that much longer, honestly.
Thank you for explaining the logic behind the types of cuts you used to fell the tree. I've sort of figured it out over the years, but this is the first time anyone has spelled it out for me. I also appreciated the post fall analysis of how well the plan was executed. Cheers, lads!
Seeing the effort and time spent felling one tree here put me in mind of the settlers who came to my part of the globe in the early 1800's. Typical farm lots were 50 acres, at 5 shillings an acre. The purchaser had a three year grace period before payment began. So land had to transform from old grown mixed forest to something plowable in short order. Not to mention building the first rough house. A great many of these lots just north of me were settled by the Irish, reflected in the Irish place names borrowed from home. "The Black Donnelys" from Moneygall notable amoung them.
@@user-wy2fu4un8reveryone who came to America "settled" there at some point, be it 18th century or 18000 BC. I think that anyone who grew up in a certain part of the world, associates themselves with it and respects the local culture can definitely call that place "my part of the globe". No need to gatekeep something this petty
Im doing a lot of wood-chopping and know a lot of other people doing this, but seeing Eoin blowin some strikes to the tree left me baffled, never saw someone doing such clean hits with an axe. Respect lad, that level of precision and body control is amazing.
There’s something quite nostalgic about this sort of aspect ratio, it makes for a beautiful video. Good day to anyone here and we all wish you a better tomorrow :)
You should consider writing a book with all of your different woodworking ideas. I think it’d be really cool. Thank you for sharing your personal life with us.
I think a skit where two people are fighting over a two man saw by taking turns pulling on it while there just so happens to be a tree between them would be funny
@@davidkoormann5262 that wouldn't work. The joke is they are fighting over a saw by pulling on one end at a time, and so happens to be a tree there being cut down. A 3rd guy placing logs doesn't make sense cause they're cutting a tree, also the saw being used isn't for logs.
Only just recently found (and subscribed) to this channel. And even though I know close to nothing about woodworking and carpentry and the like, your passion and love for what you do are absolutely contagious and inspiring!! Im already a fan and can’t wait to see more!!!
I loved hearing all your friend's insights on the art of felling trees :). He explained it really nicely. Also the fact that you don't have the most HD camera quality ever is actually way more enjoyable :). It doesn't make your videos feel mass produced
Could listen to that guy talk about axes all day long. Met him at the Belmullet fair day. He's inspired me to make my own axe collection even bigger!!.
I remember doing this in the 80s as court ordered punishment, we'd start out with a standing tree and by the end of the day it was bagged kindling. All done with two handed saws, axes and wedges, bloody hard work and bleeding hands were normal.
Your channel has been an absolute pleasure to watch. Your content is so unique and well done! I like the old ways, there is something about the connection you have with the task when you do it the old way.
Takes me back to the late 80's working on a YTS for British rail, with me mucker Ray. Had a few like that at the chateau impney,droitwich. Loved shouting TIMBER 😁
one day after xc practice in high school maybe a dozen or so of us went to a rotting tree we ran past and spent at least 3-4 hours across 2 days using any small rocks and pointed, sturdy sticks that we could find to whittle through the tree. it ended up getting caught in all the branches of other trees and we never got to see it fall. thank you for letting me finally see a tree fall all the way down
I felt like I was right there with you helping to do the back breaking work but I never had to shed a drop of sweat. Watching others work is so satisfying but also a bit exhausting. I'll down another pint for both of you. Thanks for the uplifting video experience. Another day well lived men!
Found you the other day from youtube shorts, eoin, and I'm loving the content already. I hate to hear people are trying to steal your content, but all I'll say is to just keep going and going and dont let it get to your head. You're doing fine work
Your hand work has a similar angle to my blacksmithing. Old fashioned, involved, quality, and it really involves you in your craft. You can walk away feeling like you've made something truly unique, with a personal touch. It's simply more fulfilling to do it the traditional way.
Fair play fellas, thats hard going. I've been a tree surgeon for 25 years, and i often consider how my predecessors in cutting trees must have been the strongest, toughest, hard men going. Ive axe felled a few small trees just for fun, and i tend to loose the feeling in my hands for a time afterwards !
😮 that Red x just makes me think of FernGully... And then I think of Hexus... Then I think of Tim Curry and then I think of 🦇Robin Williams.... 🙏 ... 😅 But I never thought I'd find something like this entertaining....
Just found your channel and it's great, fantastic content and very educational. You explain things in a way that's easy to follow without any annoying music butting in. I'm planning on binge watching all your videos at the weekend, keep 'em coming. If I may offer a small bit of advice it would be to get yourself proper chainsaw safety boots, trousers and helmet. €200 is a lot cheaper and less painful than a trip to A&E. A chainsaw will only cut you when it's not working, when it's working it will just rip out lumps of flesh. Stay safe and healthy.
I’ve seen plenty of trees felled with chainsaws, but never with axes and handsaws. It’s interesting to see how it’s done especially as the first part was done by eye and judgement. We even got a lesson on the internal workings of a tree.
Hiya, found your channel few days back, been going through your content. Fantastic, love it . Would you consider making a guide on witch oil to use , also how to tell one type of tree form another, as in when they are in pieces already. Really enjoying your approach to the subject . Greetings from Co.Wexford
I'm recovering from spine surgery now. Discs removed, replaced with spacers, vertebrae cut and ground away, screws rods, who knows what put in to fuse it all together... this was definitely painful to watch. Haha
I have to say, quite the sexy flex for him to casually talk while he’s swinging the axe at the same time. Most folks would be huffing and puffing. It’s the small details like that when you know someone’s really comfortable and experienced with what they’re doing.
I'm currently working on restoring an old Bulgarian bearded axe. Just at the stage where I have to shape the ash handle and it's kinda daunting I must admit. Hopefully some day it's as effective a tool as some of the beautiful axes in this video.
Never thought I’d watch a vid of some fellas chopping down a tree but here i am, and quite entertained too. Thanks mate.
...me too, and at 3 am as well! 😢😂😂
It is interesting what we find in our later years to be interesting... nice hinge has a whole new meaning
Nothing to be ashamed of ...
have you tried sawmill videos yet?
Now you have the knowledge on how to do it
These two handsome men def make it an easy watch.
This is like oddly beautiful cinematography like the shots and angles in here are amazing for just two guys chopping a tree
Not just oddly, it WAS beautiful!

I think Erin’s day job is as a photographer? Maybe his experience is showing its hand here.
I hope you never change your camera, love this footage, love the work you do, you're awesome Eoin.
do you know what camera he used? :)
Watching these video's got me eyeing up every tree I see. "Hmm that looks like it'd make a fine handle"
I always find it fascinating how insanely sturdy and strong trees really are, it takes A LOT before they actually fall.

The heart of the tree is the only one stronger than the one that belongs to the man with the axe.

Nice work. I was exhausted after just watching the first 5 swings! That tree sounds SOLID!
Micháel Ruá heads to the gym after that !!
@@dominicmeehan8322 Doesnt need to! 😂 Got all the workout he could need here! Lol
It is fairly solid, that is why it was used it for spear shafts.
For real. When he started talking while he was swinging, I realized this man could kill me in individual combat.
It was an odd thought but a true one.
Yep Ash is no joke.
Happy to see the wood being claimed by craftsmen for proper use

really wonderful! thanks for another heart-warming and inspirational video
Love watching this from start to finish, a great job!
That shot around 10:20 mark from below is so powerful. The chainsaw in the distance and the thoks of the axe. It speaks to the heart of the video
Fascinating video, skillfully executed, real hard graft, well done chaps.
Watching a professional at work with well maintained, quality tools, I can see why chainsaws caught on so universally 😄
theres something so enticing about this ! looks like a lot of fun work
Your hand work has a similar angle to my blacksmithing. Old fashioned, involved, quality, and it really involves you in your craft. You can walk away feeling like you've made something truly unique, with a personal touch. It's simply more fulfilling to do it the traditional way.
They are very accurate with the axe, hitting the same spot each time. Excellent stuff.
its nice seeing old tools being used
That’s a damn fine file. I’m from Georgia, USA. That’s how my grandfathers fell trees. It’s nice that y’all are keeping the tradition alive.

love the whole video, especially the parts where you two are using hand tools and you and hear the chainsaw in the background
Is there any chance of this tree regrowing? Would this be considered to be Coppiced? Or was the Dieback all the way to the base of the stump?
Did you film all of this by hand/iphone? Beautiful job mate! Proper good job!
