Tried to call y customer early to make sure we were still on for tomorrow and hadn't heard anything back from them. Just got a text from him telling me to proceed tomorrow... :msp_thumbsup:
 
Whoever did this work musta learned it from watching AA's vids. I about drove off the road when I saw this. Looks like they had that wrecking ball rigged up just perfect but maybe ran out of bar oil or something? Either way I'm driving by tomorrow morning to see the progress. The second shot is pretty dark but you can kinda see the house they were aiming for.

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, very nice work and video....glad you have work this week...keep shooting the vids
 
Thats the Drift HD, just got it. You know working with new guys that I know nothing about, sometimes having it rolling puts me at ease from a liability point of view....I always worry that someones going to walk underneath without thinking. There's a lot of Bull$hitters out there with nice websites.

Yeah there are a few around here with so much BS in their website its ridiculous! Talk the talk but not walk the walk sort of speak!
 
Got an estimate at ten, then off to the bank with some nice checks. What a trip this winter has been! A welcome change from the usual, that's for sure! Man, and I needed it! Supposed to be 47 tomorrow, WTF??

Oh, and two customers referred to this guy now. It seems as though my name comes up more and more whenever treework is mentioned. I may be getting old, but at least it seems as though I'm starting to get somewhere! :cheers:

And I'm not allowing vet's thread to die on account of the old gay boy either, F that!!

I'm off to work. Got a large one to drop, a few smaller ones to drop and many stumps to grind. No climbing today I don't think...
 
That's awsome Paul! Very nice to hear.

Thanks man! And best of luck to you as well!

Yeah, I'm looking forward to smacking some "competition" around on a heightened level this year. That's always some good fun!

I need some punk like Blakes to smack around in my area now... it's almost getting too easy with all these washed old fossils just hanging on. There's really only I few I worry about (and respect) anymore. Lots of "tree services", but few that can really handle anything that comes their way. Life is good (for now).

Well outta those seven things you think will be there , I think you'll be shocked to arrive around 11pm and walk into a strobe light and a disco ball , german techno music and the sheep wearing nipple clamps and MDS sitting in his lazy boy withs a wolf mask on playing with a yoyo :eek2:
