    as a guy who paid his way through college cutting, splitting and delivering firewood I am impressed with this equipment. Falling trees in and around homes takes great skill and nerves of steel. Thanks for sharing.

      The real reason I asked for the tree to be removed was it was blocking my view when I looked out my window. God's peace brother.

    Pretty impressive that the truck could handle that 10 foot or so trunk top. Probably close to a ton that far out on the boom is a lot of leverage. The base itself looked 36" or more across. Hope it got turned into lumber and not sawdust.

  • @kevinbyrne4538
    @kevinbyrne4538 2 роки тому +2

    Cutting trees in residential neighborhoods -- especially near power lines -- is dangerous. In my area, a tree service was removing branches near a house. The young guy's chain saw hit the power lines to the house; he was killed.

    • @JeffHorchoff
      @JeffHorchoff  2 роки тому +1

      This type of machinery does take a lot of the dangers out of the job, but anytime there is heavy machinery and chain saws, it's dangerous. God's peace Kevin.

    That was pretty cool to watch! I never knew such things existed. We had to get a huge dead tree removed from the sidewalk in front of our house about 10 years ago. Big branches (limbs?) were starting to lean on the lines above and one had fallen into the street due to it being dead for a very long time. I thought those were the city's responsibility but nope, not here anyway! It was fascinating to watch it come down, but utterly nerve wracking to watch the guy climbing this dead tree and it supporting all of his weight when it had already been literally falling apart. No bees inside it, lucky for him. As nice as most bees are, I don't think they would have liked their home being attacked by a man with a chainsaw 😂

    Do you find these local catches to be more Hardy?

    • @JeffHorchoff
      @JeffHorchoff  2 роки тому

      I can't honestly say that the feral bees I rescue are more hardy than ones that you can buy, but, I do not treat our bees and my annual losses are way below the national averages when it comes to dead outs. Also, they sure produce a lot of honey for me as well.

    Any holes in the pavement? It looked like they dumped it right on an asphalt road. My last words to my last tree guy: Just don't drop it on the driveway. And then I went to Home Depot and bought 9 bags of asphalt cold patch.

    • @JeffHorchoff

    Tree removal, a lot of buzzing. Bee removal, a lot of buzzing. The big difference is that the tree didn't move up to the Abby.

    So Mr. Ed, when are you going to get one of those to lower down bee swarms? Just cut the limb and get it down to ground level so you do not have to climb. Easy peasey, just need some cash though. lol

    A. I have seen operations like this with 3 machines clearing an area for lumber mills. B. Is a Question: The power lines were an issue. Is that why a healthy tree is taken down? Otherwise, my least favorite Jeff Horchoff video ever. Sorry, no thumbs up today. Just kidding about the thumbs up part. From a different perspective. Thanks for showing us what is going on in your neck of the woods. Looking forward to seeing the finished house in the future.

    • @JeffHorchoff

      This isn't the worst kind of tree cutting. It is only the one tree. What I really hate is the clearing of land for constructing new urban strip. Malls, shops, parking lots. All of that gross boxy stuff.

    • @JeffHorchoff
