The only positive thing about Aerial Mason's video is the negative reaction it generates. Hopefully when people watch the video and read the posts that follow, they will realize this guy is a danger to himself, crew and client's property.
Yeah, I watched it, and I don't think any of its funny anymore.
Too bad he doesn't do anything technical enough to really get himself in trouble, and hurt really bad. That would just be so awesome!
Finished up down in Bethel and got the trucks back saftely today. Everyone is happy as usual. Got a few nice takedown bids out down there still. We'll see. I could really care less at this point though. Lots of big tree damage down there still though. Hangers and busted up 90 footers everwhere.. just on the one street we were on. Amazing amount of treework that still needs doing out there. It's everywhere really. Should be a good year (hoping anyway).
Watch that video again, watch the other climber only.
JPS, On the garden, we grew Beef Steak and Roma's, forgot to tell ya the other day. Gotta go get about 20tons black dirt for our garden, dug out nasty crap, have a huge hole in my back yard. Going to cut out all the crazy stuff and focus on big numbers of the good stuff, like greanbeans!
I guess it was much about nothing, at least they got PPM on the climbers, and he is flipping in when he cuts...
Here's some cllips of a fir culling last week: Back leaning Fir removal - YouTube Switch your youtube setting to HD (bottom right corner).
Another climber had perviously stripped it to 80ft, leaving the top 40 before going home, I got to it about 3 in the afternoon which is why the light looks a little faded on the falling cut. The tree was a mere beanpole really, but still had a back-lean....hence my efforts to shift the favor by taking out the back-weight only.
the view from the new camera looks a little squashed but at least you get to see more of whats happening. The sound is crappy but I just picked up an external mic which outa solve that problem now.
this coming week I might have as much as 3 days work (all being well):msp_smile: Nothing like a dry spell to bring you down to earth.
Reg, what camera are you using?
That actually wasn't to bad. At least he had the thought to cut that lateral off before he dropped it and use a back up on the trunk pull. I guess he now knows he ain't gonna hinge a big lateral piece of cherry without a tip tie... much less anything else.
The old man put a pretty decent notch in it too. He is a go getter, there is no stopping him.
Hey, hey! We got nothing to do with this here show....
