Physics!

8 inch hand, it's less than two hands.. Oh. Must be 18 inches. ....... Ermmm?

You need a wire rope with a sliding choker hook like they use in forestry or a wire rope sling with a shackle. Google: "liny zrywkowe kr poland" These logging chokers are rated up to 28 metric tons. The cheapest method is a wire rope sling with a shackle. Where I live, people use it to uproot trees in orchards. Using a special machine, they uproot trees, pulling them upwards. Such a loop tightens very securely on the trunk and does not slip off. Video title: "Wyrywarka pni drzew WPDH 14/1600 - kto pamięta ? - karczujemy śliwy - sadownictwo"

This is complex. Please give us a drawing first.

does it matter if you have shorter length ropes? im guessing you are using 100 plus foot ropes. i literally want to pull a tree down with my hands holding onto a rope and loving the science behind it. im looking to take apart a tree in the back yard peeling the branches off then snapping the y area on two parts of the tree. Thank you for the video it truly helps me out.

Why didn't you use the extract 2 times force you would get by chaining as high on the stump as possible

To pull stumps look up RUclips videos stump pulling with a frame ... redirect the pull up with a frame and the stumps come out like 1/10th the effort

I have never ground a stump. I have been pulling stumps for 50+ years with a 1.5 ton come along. I use chains due to the fact that they do not fly if they break. If you use cable make sure it is pre stretched, proper winch cable. I also help out the process by stopping periodically to cut (sawsall), chop (Polanski) break the roots on the opposite side of the stump from the pull. I have never used pulleys but offen have considered it to take myself out of the line of pull. Yes damp soil helps.

First thing is that rope would have scared me enough to at least throw something over it incase it snapped. The other thing I was wondering is if you would have had better leverage putting the notch for the chain closer to the top of the stump?

If you have an Amazon Prime account and you copy a link to share with your Prime Account embedded in the link, it will not work for anyone else. Might be why it didn't work... Thanks for all your videos and answers.

I usually soak the ground for a while before pulling. Then sometimes when it is half way out I’ll get as much dirt as possible off the root ball with a hoe and hose. Pressure washer works even better.

Bad advice again. The gift that just keeps on giving!

Don't choke the stump once then wrap it. Wrap it two or three times, THEN hook it back to the chain. It'll avoid all that unwrapping it did.

Waging war with the trees.

So cool how that works.

I’ve got a lead vest if you want for a dampner.

Wow, the stump and all. I'd have a log or block by the base of the tree to be felled because that's a lot of stress on the trailer. But this is brilliant! :o

Fun videos to watch but speed up the video at sections and also make cuts to move the story along quicker. The video production will be harder but more people will watch and finish the video. IMO. Thank you for the video!!

If you want to make another one of these videos come to Dallas, Texas. I have a project where we have to clear some trees. Would you like to come and make a video?

I like every bit of your rigging the pulleys but two things. Take advantage of your tall stump and hook up closer to the top and it will act like a lever against the back roots, pulling them first. Second, when putting the chain around the stump, its ok to wrap it once or twice, but the slip hook should be hooked back to the main chain (like you did later) that way it won't spin around the tree as you pull.

amazing

Hey Brian (?), some great videos of man versus trees. Who would've thought watching someone pull down trees, or pull out stumps, in 4K no less, would be so riveting? Because most of your viewers are men, we can't help ourselves in offering up suggestions and solutions - after the fact 😂. No wonder our wives get frustrated with us 😁. You're doing a great job. There's nothing wrong with failures, as we all learn, and get a good chuckle as an added bonus. From this video, we've learned why some trees snap in a storm and others pop right out. Different species of trees have different characteristics and require different pulling strategies. By the time you get halfway through pulling all these trees on your property, you're going to be able to consult yourself out as a tree removal specialist. Looking forward to seeing how you get the stump out on this one. From an appreciative viewer in New Zealand. Cheers, Ian.

Why would you use a tree saver strap on a stump?

Brian I have some trees around 12 to 14 inches in diameter. I have a 75 hp 4 wheel drive tractor. What would you recommend the working load limit be of my snatch blocks, ropes, straps, chains? Thank you so much for taking time to post these videos I find them very educational

Many engineers, scientists, physicists, politicians... are brilliant! We need some of them dearly. But they typically lack "common sense".... usually educated beyond their intelligence. Nice video! Keep it up!

You could dig around the stump and cut some of the roots to make it a little safer.

Amazing show of pulleys! You lost me when you stated you used glyphosate to kill the tree??? Glyphosate is "a probable carcinogen for humans and other living organisms"!! You are poisoning your ground and possibly exposing yourself too. Copper nails are pretty effective and not as dangerous.

so , crazy hättest du den gurt richtig fest gemacht wäre er nicht weggeflogen

How did it do?

Oh, ok, you don't hate trees, you just want to plant your own trees, fruit trees are great.

If you have enough fighting Uruk-hai, you can move all the trees

Don't get me wrong, I am enjoying your videos, but why do you hate trees so much?

Lots of fun watching! SInce are planting fruit trees anyway one might consider just "top working" those ornamental pears with a culinary variety right onto the stump. Lot less $ and trouble. Just as interesting perhaps. Would get nice fruit pretty quick on those massive roots. Too late now obviously but other viewers might consider.

Reminds me of a Chinese finger puzzle! Nice pulling vids!

All the “rent a backhoe” comments are made by people who rent apartments and have never paid for any type of property work whatsoever. Love the pulleys! Pulled down about 6 Siberian elms so far with a 28:1 and a 4000 lb winch.

WOULDN´T BE EASIER CONTRACTING AN EXCAVATOR??

Instead of the notch: Why not drill a big hole and but a strong and long screw into the stumb?

I am thinking of using recovering snatch rings

How many pullies did you use please?

Can you tell me why you don't use pullies like crane does instead of using different holding points.

Don't use tow straps around stump but either chain or wire slings and before that clean off barks around stump.

Great video! Thank you!

Wrap your yellow straps around the stump 2 x , it will force the straps to pull upon itself . Not the stump . Now the leverage will keep the straps secured.

Thanks!

Love this. Thank you. Very entertaining.

What do you use for rope or cable ??

Real Nic e ANy chance of going through your set up slowly with each component and how they are hooked in ?

why not use more leberage ie more mechaninal advantage like your earlier videos?

What kind of rope is that?

Mr. Brain, another riveting video! I love the suspense because you are just not sure what is going to happen. Failures are good to see too. A couple things that I think would improve your video: One, I was excited to see the time lapse of the setup from 3:43 - 5:12, but I'm wondering if you spliced in the wrong segment....because to me I don't see anything change. Two, I liked the auger segment, with the time lapse, but after the first hole was dug, I think the time lapse could have been sped up maybe another 4x. Watching you do all of the holes felt a little long. I watch a fair amount of videos by Andrew Catamara and he really has a good feel for when to super speed up the time lapse. He usually starts out at a slower time lapse and then speeds it up more to shorten a long segment. Here is an example: ruclips.net/video/lCDQs-G9Wv0/видео.html. I can't wait to see how you solve this video. I'm stumped on what you'll do next. 🙂
