WRANGLERSTAR'S FAVORITE TRAUMA KIT amzn.to/2VWmGqN
Have you added anything to this kit to upgrade it?
No, this kit is complete,
I’m cutting 3 big old pine trees down this week
Best UA-cam channel!
Simple but, that is what you need, tells a story and you know what they are doing.
Man these silent vids are the best sometimes. Relaxing.
Silent but... that squeek right when the tree goes down made me giggle. Such a perfect sound effect.
Doesn't take a lot to satisfy you, does it?
100% love these
I agree! Great video. Love the silent ones.
Not for a blind feller lol.
Really enjoy this style of video, well done
@Outdoors With The Morgans nice to see you here
nice to see you here but please do not take this advice, your way better at falling trees than this man!
the way he laced up his boot is elite
Ryan Hagadorn used to lace up the whites like that, I bought boots up in Redding ca, old hotshot guy showed me that back 2001, fast and one handed
Hey Cody, I had a thought when I saw you putting on the trauma kit. I watch a channel about blacksmithing by a guy named Alec Steele, he had a shop in the UK but he moved to the US last fall. He did a 3 part series on trauma self-aid where a medical team advised him on some of the risks that can happen in a blacksmithing shop and what to do if they occurred. They then did a mock scene where he would act like he got hurt and had to save himself. I'll link the three videos at the end of this comment if anyone wants to check them out. Fair warning: they use fake blood to simulate injuries and it is kinda graphic. Would you possibly be able to do something similar for chainsaw, ax, and felling injuries? Not saying you would have to bring in a medical team or simulate the injuries, but maybe just go through step by step what you would do if anything were to happen in these scenarios?
Alec Steele's trauma self-aid:
Part 1: ua-cam.com/video/Q6JziunEdZQ/v-deo.html
Part 2: ua-cam.com/video/FHaV7hKEPeo/v-deo.html
Part 3: ua-cam.com/video/o1EKkVowXGI/v-deo.html
I highly recommend checking out more of his channel as well. He's very talented and does great work!
This is top-notch video editing!
I prefer both, btw: Silent & beautiful like this, and non-silent, filled with wisdom/rant.
That saw has a bigger cut than my lawnmower 😂😂
Cody, seriously, you keep putting us rookie homesteaders to shame :). We heat our homestead (heat and water) entirely by wood. for about 10 days I've been cutting and processing ONE tree per day in preparation. I was just boasting to my wife, how I am getting pretty darn good with my chainsaw skills...AND then I see this! All joking aside, great video,I cannot imagine how much effort it takes to film and edit something this well. You've once again inspired us. If a job is worth doing, it's worth doing well.
LOL i would be out there in my basketball shorts and white t-shirt with running shoes on and chop this tree down in 2 minutes with my 16'' walmart chainsaw.
"Wind is pushing the fir back on the bar". Yeah, I saw that. Kind of spooked me out for a second there. Nice save.
Easily the highest quality content out there. Noticed big improvement in the audio. Keep up the great work Cody!
This isn't just a video... this is a theatrical adventure...
Love it!!
"Mommy, does Mr. Wranglerstar do all his own stunts?" "No, baby. He is one of those Hollywood actors that uses stunt doubles and green screen backgrounds." "Well, he sure makes it all look real!" "We have to give him that. He is one of the best. But he drinks green vegetable smoothies and has no real strength to lift heavy chainsaws and tree limbs."
Ken, you win the best comment of the day award,
@@wranglerstar How is the carnivore diet going?
Your storytelling and cinematography have really progressed to a wonderful place. Thank you for the hard work, it really is paying off, and I appreciate it.
Really impressed with your use of the drone in videos like this one. Well done, sir!
Nick's boots, small forest ax, trauma kit - all get labeled. But not the tactical clogs?
They look like Dansko. My wife used to buy them when she was a restaurant manager. They make them for men.
Your basically Ron Swanson without his moustache
7:57 lol that face.
They way you laced your boots blew my mind. It's the simple things like that that I pick up from your channel that keep me coming back.
Every sound in this video is really pleasant. From the ambient noise, twigs crackling under foot, and even the sharpening of the chainsaw. It makes me want to change careers.
You said what I was thinking. I also like his music selections, especially some of the Bluegrass music.
I do not agree with the back cut being 2-4 inch’s above the face cut. It weakens the Hinge wood. August hunicke has some content explaining why. Great video tho. 🇺🇸
DaddyBeanDaddyBean I don’t think the video was specifically about that he just talked about it during one of his jobs.
Back in the day we called that a barber chair. Wasn't done. But excellent video anyway. Your video skills are outstanding Cody.
I agree, on a very large tree, 4 may be acceptable but on smaller ones, anything over about an inch is going to change the dynamics of the hinge wood and make it more unpredictable. All you want is just enough nose to keep it from slick stumping off the back and the more you bypass the backcut over the notch because you're too far above the notch and therefore the hinge wood is too thick and strong, the more chance for shear and barber chair.
@@digbyodell2924 even on a large tree... why would you do such a thing? you have 0 control over the tree, it makes it very unpredictable. by going 4 inches high your accomplishing nothing but endangering yourself and others. the guidelines for fellers are "face cut 1/3 of the dept of the tree and the back cut should not exceed 1.5 inches. one day someone is going to try that on a hardwood tree and it will end very badly...
@@ryy597 I personally wouldn't, I don't think I've ever met the tree big enough for that in person, but, there must be some source that Cody got that information from, presumably a reliable one, therefore I adjust the parameters to suit that information based on my accompanying knowledge.
Classic......always enjoy this type of video. I won't scan the comments for how many commented on your bar being upside down. I always try to guess how many will tell you " do you know your bar is upside down" Cant wait to see Jack doing this in the future.
Be safe cody. Life is short. We just learned of grant thompsons thekingofrandoms passing.
When I used to work for a tree cutting service
my boss taught me everything including chain sharpening. He said to do the chain the teeth 3 times and make sure that all the teeth are in the same measurements.
Where do you measure from?
I've never seen so many useless tools all u needed to cut this tree down is the chainsaw, I could have cut that down in 5 seconds but u took all day for no reason
Content my friend, content...
All day? It only took him 3 hours to suite up!
@@turnersparadise8368 for real😂
This is therapeutic. One of the reasons I love it when my fiance asks if i want to do tree work around her dad's property. Great video!
I've been on vacation. A lot of catching up to do. Good ole Wranglerstar cutting down trees!
ETA: I made this comment before I watch the video.
There is nothing better than a classic Wranglerstar video. Cody, your video production is top notch. Best UA-camr on the Net. Thank you, sir.
The drone footage is epic. Well, take it easy.
This is what originally drew me in many years ago Cody. Now, I’d watch you bathe a cat or anything else. But I’ll always love this the most. Have a beautiful day my friend, and thanks. 🙏
You missed the tractor, so this didn't have to turn into a "How NOT to cut down a tree" video. LOL
i'm not the one to tell you what kind of content you should create but I do miss this style of videos from you !!! it had the back to basics feeling to it thank you for that and God bless us all !!!
The beginning of this video was like watching the intro to Rambo III. LOL
No really great video man loved it!
I recently restored a stihl 021. I'm somewhat of a mechanic for small engines, so after getting a new 16" bar and a new half-skip chain, I decided to modify the muffler to give it more power. Living in PA, which is very rainy in my area, I did not see this as much of a safety hazard, as long as I was careful and observant of my surroundings while running the saw. As my first saw, I especially like how manageable it is, and it is a great saw. if you are looking for a saw for jack, (if he doesn't already have one) I think that this would be perfect.
LOL leather crocs... Mr Fancy Pants!
Pretty sure they are clogs
While these videos are enjoyable to watch, it's important to emphasize the safety precautions and steps you should take when felling a tree. I really nope no one interprets this as a "How to" video and then goes out and tries to cut down a large oak tree. Hazards, escape route, tree leaning direction are extremely important. This is not an attack, I enjoy your channel, just looking out. - I would love to see a follow up video showing how to bore cut and fell a tree that is leaning in the opposite direction that you're trying to fell it. Maybe try to pound a stake into the ground with the tree. This would be a cool video. Keep up the great work
Jacksoner .. agreed. Great vid idea!
Best unintentionally ASMR video ever.
Nice one! We were taught a slightly different technique in Scotland. We are told to be no more than 1.5” above your sink cut, and that the sink cut should only 1/3 depth of the tree! 😁
you are taught the right way! thats the standards for felling trees. you really do not want to exceed 1.5 inches on the back cut...
“I don’t know why”....I watched this video.....of a guy who got geared up to cut a tiny dead fir tree in the middle of nowhere....🤷🏼♂️
Mans using an axe to take of branches, you've got a chainsaw there matey..
Shoulda played the music from commando while you were suiting up.
I love these silent stories!!
1:55 I used to work for a utility company with LOTS of overhead work. Yes, I hooked poles. I would lace up my Wescos (don't hate me) like that. It's great to see someone else who laces their boots 2 at a time, side 2 side. ;)
Both the felling and the filming are a work of art
Wow. Gave me the chills. Sent me back in time. Classic wranglerstar, but with current video skills.
my last engine captain would have scolded you for looking behind your tree like that 8:20
From the get go... instant Emmy Award for that brilliant beginning!! Epic dude!! Co-Staring all of the things you have always talked about and use as you always do no matter what. Safely and consistently successful is always best.
The silence was peaceful too. Beginning to end, this short film is another treasure. Wow!! Thank you for the magic here and the work it takes to produce all this WS. Great Video!!
No offense, because I love your talking head vids, but these no talking ones are some of your best videos editing wise. Love them coming up occasionally! Always a treat.
Are ya sure you have a long enough bar? (just kidding).
This job would have went better with a 36" bar,
Love the ending with the drone shot from overhead. Your videos are often very instructive.
Clear the Dutchman - never heard that one before. Maybe you showed it in the past, but I'm 76 and don't remember.....LOL
Buckin Billy Ray... He uses the saw to do the clearing though.
Nice one Cody. Have an amazing weekend, Andreas from Off Grid Sweden 🇸🇪
You are a master at your craft,
And I’m not talking about felling trees,
But making soul fulfilling videos 👍
i have watched all your videos this is the best one, a man once said if i had fours to cut down a tree i wood sharpen for three hours and get ready
Codeys getting better and better at videography everyday. This is a pleasure to watch
All I can think about is Wranglerstar reads mean tweets :
Geeze Cody. That video is SHARP!
So clean. So great. Not a word needed. Great job!
Good to see you put that classic wranglerstar gear on!!! Give us more of this content. This is the reason I got sucked into your channel and your families life 10 plus years ago! When i get the hankerin for this stuff i go back and watch the back to basics, and timber framing vids you did some years back.......never gets old!!!!
Take care and god bless my friend!
You tube sucks! I just clicked on the notification that I just got and there are comments from 6 hours ago!! That shot of the dead tree made me 😆
Thanks for not blaring stupid music and for showing every step of the way!
I gotta say; the felling videos continue to be my favourites. They have an almost meditative quality to them. I suppose its the ritual of the entire thing. Peace and Grace my friend.
How did you convince the tree to stand back up for the drone shot? Lol. Great video as always!
Great videography and amazing audio. Commercials scared a little bit of pee out of me, but I'm glad you're getting paid for this quality of work.
I have watched most of your videos, I could not say 100% of them but at least high 90's and how is this the first time I can remember seeing you lace up your boots that way. I do not wear high boots like those but the few times I have I never thought to try to lace up that way. I will have to remember it for the future.
I see you still have your "Metal Pants" great video!
Been watching you sir so long I'm watching reruns of ideas. Lol, keep the good fight going 👍
Keep being you Cody and we'll support it.
This is great. I've been around 3-4 trees while they were being cut down but nobody ever explained what was happening and why to me. If you'd asked me how you cut down a tree before watching this video I would've told you to cut a wedge and then go in from the other side and I wouldn't have known to clear the wedge first(Which makes perfect sense to do) and that your back cut should be 2-4 inches above your straight cut(something I just didn't notice while watching over peoples shoulders). And those plastic wedges sure look useful. Every time I've helped I was on rope duty along with a couple other boys helping to guide the fall. But then again those were some old and fairly thick trees so maybe that's why I haven't seen them used. Would the steps be different on a bigger tree?
Fell my first tree today, I remembered an older video you did on felling to help me with it!
7:08 Almost expected a Clint Eastwood Cigar to appear...
Videos as such is why i subbed to this channel almost 9 YEARS ago. I like the Mr. Chickadee approach to this video. God bless
I really enjoy all of your videos, but I really like this style because it's so peaceful. Thanks for the great content!
You (or whoever) does some of the best videography on YT. These vids have the most economical storytelling imaginable. Well done.
And here I thought this would be in your typical style with tons of info nuggets for the inexperienced to hear. This was amazing.
Another thing that popped into my head was how this reminded me of being a small boy just watching my dad work. Not necessarily explaining anything, but seeing the process and not really know the reasons why, but still seeing the effort and dedication to doing a job right. Silently...
It’s so impressive how level you keep then chainsaw, when cutting horizontal👍🏼
Always fun to watch. Great informative video for those who need to cut a tree for the first time.
I was thinking, now that is a lot of precautions you take before work, but that is how it should be. Only difference i noticed is the starting procedure. In Latvia in accordance with the safety norms you would have to place the chainsaw on the ground and only then start it. Working with the chainsaw is no joke, always think and then act.
Alright be honest, how many times did you have to go back to the tractor?
Man Cody, watched one of these from 2011 the quality difference is on point. :)
Glad to see how much better the videos have become over the years!
Nicely done. :)
Nice work Cody!
Cody the video quality is outstanding.
After watching that I'm not sure if I feel more like taking a nap or putting on my work boots. Great video! Relaxing and motivating at the same time. Nice!!
You're always so good about the different shooting styles. A real filmmaker if you will... These ASMR videos are always so refreshing to throw in there every once in a while. Thanks for working to keep the channel fresh. Even after 8 years subscribing, I still catch myself looking forward to your posts.
I just love videos like this...since I live in an east coast beach town in NC, it's a good 4-6 hours to our Appalachian mountains...Cody, your videos are my escape to the mountains...and boy, the Lord sure has created some beauty up there in the PNW
Although, I prefer the videos with you actually talking, this video was nothing short of amazing! Your video editing and production skills are fantastic. This video is truly a work of art!
Cody these are the type of your videos that are the best absolutely loved the keep up the good work.
Respectful... Sad... Honest... Necessary... I'm not often one prone to sentimentality in it's extreme forms but seeing someone else such as yourself, Cody who shares, as I do, such a deep affinity for the trees both in their utility and symbiosis with man... It made me well up a bit. This video is just right... In every way. Thank you.
Have missed the chainsaw videos. 👍
Bring back the forest stewardship videos! Really enjoyed watching a dense patch of trees turn into a healthy stand
It's these videos I love and I remember why I've never considered unsubscribing even when there were weeks with no content that matched why I like your channel so much
Thank you. I had learned how to do this by watching your past videos and I’ve gotten to use what was learned...twice. Both times is small yards where the landing area was small and both times the tree fell right where I meant it to. Thanks again for the life skill.
Thank you. Thats the videos i want to watch. Thats why i started watching. I watched you fall a tree and i would watch it again. So satisfying.
Nicely edited!
Pretty big saw for such a small tree.
Rick Trapper Riley my guess is he is completely sorry about that.
Best thing I’ve seen all day.
You ARE a film maker cody, this reminded me of the prospector chapter from the coen brothers the ballad of buster scruggs. In the same way the lone prospector toils over his pan, a lone man fells a tree. Camera capturing the beauty in the small details aswell as the gorgeous backdrops of the landscape. I love this content
Not a word spoken, but extremely informative. Brilliant. Regards Paul
Am I the only one perplexed by the way Cody tied his boots? I dont have that tall of a boot but I'm curious now. Great video as always. Always an inspiration keep up the great work.
I just love this video, as a creator myself, I fully understand the amount of work that went into that video, wow, impressed.
Sorry to see them beetle killed trees, but as the quote goes.... “Buzzards gotta eat, same as worms”.
Cheers from Tokyo!
461 w/ 32" bar for a 10" tree...lol, I chuckled. Do you use a claymore to spread jelly on your toast, too? No kill like an overkill.
Great video skills.
It's interesting to see how method differs between countries. Altho I think your pro style is more old school (still valid ofc).
