  • Tree removal performed by Seattle Tree Care. (previously Treecycle)
    This Ulmus americana died of Dutch elm disease and needed to be removed to prevent spread of the disease. All wood was salvaged by Urban Hardwoods. The Elm tree featured in the video was located in the Wallingford Neighborhood of Seattle, WA.

    • @briankennedy1313

      bogg54 not sure what’s to learn from the “crew”. Climber? Yes. Crane operator? Yes.

    • @briankennedy1313
      @briankennedy1313 5 лет назад

      EauClairePowerWashing yeah since that’s not what happened. Might want to check yourself on the stupid comment.

    • @briankennedy1313
      @briankennedy1313 5 лет назад

      It’s like saying how much you can learn from power washing. You put brush in the chipper, it chips. You spray water, it cleans.

    • @briankennedy1313
      @briankennedy1313 5 лет назад

      Each and every other person mentioned the climber and crane operator specifically. Like everyone else always does. Running chainsaws and chipping brush is as mindless and DUMB as power washing. Stick to what YOU know; detergents and spray wands. It must have been really important to include power washing in your name. Now we all know you’re a real workin man.

    • @briankennedy1313
      @briankennedy1313 5 лет назад

      You lead with direct insults then call me insecure? In tree care there are really two crews. Ground crew, and the people doing the dangerous jobs requiring talent. If you stay on the ground you might as well be running a power washer all day. There is nothing to be said about ground crew.

  • @martinstreeworks3310
    @martinstreeworks3310 5 лет назад +1

    Very well done!, climber has some experience in craning out tree's but could use a couple of pointer's such as switch to a bigger saw before getting into much larger dia. wood. Also always start your cuts on the same side as the choker is anchored, you did that on most but I think you were off a bit on a couple cuts. Last tip is on the bigger cuts I many times will unclip my saw lanyard and rig it directly to the tree just encase the saw get's pinched and you need to move out of the way for whatever reason quickly, if the saw get's pinched and it is connected to your harness your not going anywhere very quick or maybe not quick enough.

  • @richie1593
    @richie1593 7 лет назад +14

    Fine work indeed , one question / concern , why did the climber abandon his lifeline after a certain point relying solely on his sidestrop , 2 tie in points especially on a job like that would have been crucial I would have thought ?

    • @BoomerElite4u
      @BoomerElite4u 5 лет назад +3

      Most people don't use tie in points when topping out trees because your tie in point would have to be below you and is just a waste of time.

    • @bryanmiller843

      Cause the second line could no longer be tied to top of trunk as it was being cut off. Lots of guys don’t use a second line just a sidestrop or 2

    • @KennysTreeRemoval
      @KennysTreeRemoval 3 года назад

      Hi Richie, hope I can answer this for you based on my knowledge of doing tree work and being a climber myself for years running my own company. The gentleman cutting the tree in this video I will assume is the lead climber also the owner of the company. I agree with you on having at least 2 tie in points ideally you want 3, now once he was no longer tie in to the top the tree it leaves him with a few options, one is chocking his life line to the trunk as srt or with a friction saver as drt, but good luck finding a friction saver that would fit the diameter of that tree. You can also use two lanyards as two tie in points as you see this climber did later in the video. Hope this answered your question.

    Unmatched skill level on this one! No way, I would have attempted this job. We have those big "piss' elms here in the midwest. Just like the one you took down, they were planted up and down streets that were small, and the infrastructure was tight. The LOS (Line of Sight) wiring here was showing, and man, it would have taken all the power out of the block if one of those logs hit it.
    Great to watch this video!
