    The drone footage reminded me why I love being up in a tree, can't help it, everytime I ascend a tree I'm always taking a few seconds to just look around and enjoy the view.

    August, I can't help but look in awe at the beautiful country that you live in and work in! What a treat to see the mountains in the background. I live at the seashore on the Gulf of Mexico so we have no hills! The only place to go to get up high is in a 20 story condo! But I appreciate my view looking out across the vast expanse of water knowing that if I sailed away to the south and east I'd be in the Islands in a few days! Aren't we lucky to be living in this wonderful U.S. of A.!

    Hey Damien,
    I’ve had a mini grapple’s holding bolt fail while lifting ‘what the machine could lift.’ Thankfully, no one and nothing were under the large, Oak log when the grapple separated from the machine, it was a real eye opener though. #awareness #ilovethewayyallwork

  • @mary-ruthflores4107

    I’ve learned a lot from your channel. Had to get a new pump for my well, and a tree was in the way, so the well guy says he can cut it. Pulls out the smallest chainsaw I have ever seen! Start to cut, it is burning the wood. I say, “I think the chain is on wrong, it was backward.” And it was! So thanks for your teaching!!

    What impresses me (IT, no Woodwork at all) the most in your videos is not the cool cuts, editing skills and drone and gopro details or the explanations of why you do it the way you do. What I find most impressing is the calm and tidyness you do it with. Having and showing repeat customers talks a lot about your creditability and work ethics. Bless you and your crew and keep you safe
