August I could listen to you talk tree stuff, saw stuff, and people stuff all day. However as a 62 year olds climber with 43 year’s climbing in the rear view I better just get back to work. Things just take me longer than they once did so I will finish this video after work. Thank you for years of great stories, insights, and wisdom.
Great job and what a great gift. Glad to see your back is getting better. What an act of kindness, Joe J. Stay safe and I'll catch yall on the next one.
Great video August. Looks and sounds like Joe did a great job on the 200. Glad you are back to work. Have a blessed weekend and tell the rest of the crew that you couldn’t do it without them. They’re awesome too.
Killer saw August. Congrats. Great job Joe Johnson. I hope this is new footage August. There's no way your work is going to slow down. The weather's got everybody confused. I'm working on my own trees until things pick up.
August you are awesome, thanks for sharing the limb hinging by cutting in a little. Simple thing perhaps but I don’t think I would’ve thought of it myself if you hadn’t shared. Saw sounds good, I still have my first 020T which still rocks, it reminds me of that one. Would definitely be interested if Joe Johnson is interested in doing that kind of saw work for hire. Thanks for sharing.
How comforting it is to find August up a tree at midnight here in N.E.OH. I know I’ll be tired enough in a hour or so to go back to bed. He may consider himself to be a monkey beaver, but I know him to be a wise and intelligent gentle man. Thank You! N.E.OH Bob
Yeah!!! Ol' What's His Name. You know him, too. He use to work with us back 30 years ago. Cool dude. Only drank beer when he was alone or with somebody.
Crisp running saw sounds like lots of velocity in the intake.I would think that's all positive for an in the tree saw. Who does the editing ? Pretty nicely done videos.
Stihl 200T was the best top-handled (not to be routinely used 1-handed) saw in its day for sure. 1st gen 201T sucked, but the 2nd gen 201TC will by far outperform any old 200T stock saw, but obviously not a modified version. Nice job guys.
nice video. quite the tall tree. im a-okay with watching an hour long uncut video of only helmet cam footage. i feel like it shows the cuts and everything the most detailed and i can always pick up something from it. the 200t rips wow.
Well, I too would like to thank Joe Johnson. Thank you Joe for making August giddy up in a tree. That saw seemed to make August feel good ....real good and everyone is better for it when August is happy. Honestly I love watching ppl do what they love and what their good at. Like ol' times, indeed, August!!!
I Love watching you in a tree !!!!!! And I love watching you try new thing's like the battery saw and the 2511 and I'm 60 so I like the light saws... but you with a modded 200T is just the Bomb 😀 when you find out about Joe please let us know... I would Love a 200 that runs that good !!! Thank you August... was missing you very much !!! ❤
"made for this" is not an exaggeration. If tree surgeon is in the dictionary you are the picture next to it. that saws idle is at " give me something to cut" sounds great!
Saw sucks! You have great saws, PM me for the address to dump that old hunk of junk 😂. Waaaaaaaa. Glad you are feeling better- pain makes the day go so slowly. Cutting trees is good for body as well as the mind! Four thumbs up Mr. H !!!! The camera work is always excellent. You have figured out what to do as well as not to. 😊
Joe Johnson has built a couple of logging saws for me (460 & 661)and I absolutely love the work he does on them! Great guy and great saw builder! I've never heard anything bad from the 1000's of saws he has built for all aspects of the chainsaw world.
Watching from Davao city Philippines.. I love your vids and I am also a tree guy and I like your monkey beaver harness I want to have one but I don't have money
HEY, is that fair - the first couple minutes showed limbs you cut or will *RIGHT OVER SAFE ZONE* of other structures (like the house!) OK, NO, no, AUGUST, again it simply boils down to, *"when you're good, you're very good"* and of course *that would be YOU!!!* And he new saw seems an sounds like a KEEPER!
Why do you always skip the climbing up part. Im sure people would love to watch it/ listen to you ramble on about anything. That video the other day when it was raining was cool to watch you climbing around on it
I worked electrical line clearance from about 1978- abt 1990 back when it was DRT and tautline hitches. Still work a few trees on our acreage and do a little climbing from time to time. I enjoy watching your video's and seeing the new equipment and techniques used now. Also enjoyed your interview with the legendary Jerry Beranek from awhile back.
Yeah it should be. He does these saw give aways quite often if it's the same one I'm thinking of too. MFJ saws. I've got a couple id like to send this year if it all works out
🌲Always enjoy your videos! Thank you to Joe Johnson You did a Great thing ❤️ That saw sounds awesome I enjoy the banter with Damien and yes, you look good up there! Love your t-shirt phrase 👍 Looking forward to next video with Hez ✈️ Great video
That is a proper 200t August! 😎👊 I appreciate watching you use the wind dropping those limbs. MonkeyBeaver crew keeps on makin' the hard work look easy! Keep yourselves safe! 😃👍❤🌲 Randy
glad your back is getting better .200t are great saws. Have 2 020t's still running strong. But haven't used them or 540 gas in over 2 years. Love my 540t battery saw. no noise,no starting 500 times a day. no vibration. had serious elbow problem all gone after a month using battery saw.
That shirt at the end says it all. Man I don't know how to say it other than just saying it, agape. You are an inspiration to the treeple out there and a greater influencer than you may ever know. Keep up the good work that is put before you . Glad that you finally got a Lazer pointer back in yer hands, that extra weight is worth it in the gold
I just recently bought a monkey beaver 1.0 with a water pouch thank you August for the amazing product.I love watching your videos hope to meet you someday.
What is that gray stringey stuff that's on the limbs of the evergreen trees you climb ?...I'm here in Mid-Atlantic, Virginia. South of us along the coastal planes beginning in North Carolina we have a similar growth. The strands hang from limbs, are very long and it's called Spanish Moss...
Only arborists understand what a pleasure it is to work at a bird's eye view with a stunning view of the surroundings. And we do this work not even for money, but because we love it the most, it is our calling and the meaning of life.
Okay Martin. I will write through a translator. But my native language is Russian and the translation is not always the literal sense of what was said. For that, I can read your comments almost without a translator, but I can’t write the text in English yet😁
Ive ran so many top handle saws, and nothing, absolutely nothing comes close to a well build 200T. Yes, 201 like robert ck has is freaking amazing, but thats a build saw.

KCó 😊😊k😊❤
That saw seems to have great throttle response….well done Joe!
“Don’t make me repeat myself.” History. 👍🍪❤🍩😎 Great shirt. Bob
Damn, that is a fast and powerful saw! Hats off to Joe Johnson.
Watching you fall that tree was absolutely precision work! Thank you for sharing!
So good to hear the JOY in your voice while doing what you love !
awesome to see you back in the trees August
Killer saw August. Congrats.
Great job Joe Johnson.
I hope this is new footage August.
There's no way your work is going to slow down. The weather's got everybody confused. I'm working on my own trees until things pick up.
Bit of an old skool feel with you using a 200T. ❤
That saw 👀! Appears to be excellent.
Great video August. The saw is running good. Take care of your back.
the o20t is one of the greatest saws of all time

Columbus myself today.
Have a great week.
you were flying! Good call jumping out when it was time to switch saws. Glad you were feeling good - keep it up!
Awesome. That one was pretty tall. The 200 seemed to be enjoying itself the larger the wood got.
I think joe nailed it need to see if he’s doing more saws August looks like older vids reckin it down 👊
Ooh give away of a 200t 😂. I want one last one I had was 10+ years ago. Miss them.
Yeah!!! Ol' What's His Name. You know him, too. He use to work with us back 30 years ago. Cool dude. Only drank beer when he was alone or with somebody.
I blew the cobwebs off of my 200t yesterday. I wasn't in the biz when they canned em, so it's cool to have one
beautiful retro sound :-)) greetings from Germany
August is loving the old school vibes 😊
Great job and great video! Always like the 200
Great job August as always God bless I hope you heal I hope God will guide you and everything will be okay God bless my friend
I LOVE the sound of that 200T rip’n… want one soo bad 😂😅😢
That 200 is amazing beautiful
Always impressed when limbs fall from heights without hitting targets 👍

I've got a 200t that was ported by bell hopper,it's in need of some much needed attention. I say the t is for tired...💚🌳👊👍🌳💚
nice video. quite the tall tree. im a-okay with watching an hour long uncut video of only helmet cam footage. i feel like it shows the cuts and everything the most detailed and i can always pick up something from it. the 200t rips wow.

How can I get ahold of Joe? The sound of that 200 gives me chills
He is one heck of a saw builder.
🙌🏽 Awesome Video!

love the beaver pelt harness
Great video! Hope you guys can hang in there! Think most of us " Blue Collars" are sucking wind right now.
Wow that thing cuts!
That saw sounds knarly
Heck of a saw!
Thanks!

Just super cool all the way!
Yes man! Yesss! Shreddin' vids!
Great video
Damn you’re good
Man! How tall was that tree? It took forever for the top to hit the ground!
You look cool in that beaver pelt harness 🙃
Like a tree Monkey Beaver viking.
August out of curiosity how high was that tree?
thats American of you!
Watching from Davao city Philippines.. I love your vids and I am also a tree guy and I like your monkey beaver harness I want to have one but I don't have money

Great job
Only thing missing is the green truck.
Stay safe
Love the die-hards.
@@AugustHunicke yessir!!
Hey August . Are you doing this in Canada 🇨🇦 . You talk like my kind of people . Ottawa Canada .
#getaugustto200k
Are you wearing forearm sip?
How tall was that tree
Ying Ying!
Give da Vinci a brush, Give Hunicke a saw…

@@AugustHunicke
20 min. is just an appetizer!
=O)
Make the videos longer if that's what it takes. We can always skip through parts we don't want to watch. 🤷♂️😃
@@VeteranTreeService if they’re wanting more then it’s probably the right amount already

That sounds absolutely marvelous!😍 If i had to choose just one climbing saw it would be the 200T! Its the best do it all climbing saw!😎👍🏻 i like it!
Love the 200t, love the 020t more. Just never liked the Flippy caps. Then again I own an 034 and 044 so I'm probably biased haha.
Saw sounds very aggressive looking like you have a new saw connection does excellent work 👍
Saw sounds good to me. Starts well, revs quickly, pulls strong and sounds great. August of old just do not get too carried away.
If it's the Joe Johnson I'm thinking of he modifies chainsaws in my neck of the woods (Yamhill County, Oregon).
How might one contact this said Joe Johnson?? I’m not too far away in Clackamas County…
Yeah it should be. He does these saw give aways quite often if it's the same one I'm thinking of too. MFJ saws. I've got a couple id like to send this year if it all works out
@@kodeebarber Joe confirmed (with me) that he sent the chainsaw
@@jasonherget I have put the phone number in twice but I think the Tube of You keeps combing it out.
@@betternfred I figured it was. He's done a few of these give aways

Thank you to Joe Johnson
You did a Great thing ❤️
That saw sounds awesome
I enjoy the banter with Damien
and yes, you look good up there!
Love your t-shirt phrase 👍
Looking forward to next
video with Hez ✈️
Great video
That is a proper 200t August! 😎👊
I appreciate watching you use the wind dropping those limbs.

Keep yourselves safe! 😃👍❤🌲

glad your back is getting better .200t are great saws. Have 2 020t's still running strong. But haven't used them or 540 gas in over 2 years. Love my 540t battery saw. no noise,no starting 500 times a day. no vibration. had serious elbow problem all gone after a month using battery saw.
That is a beast saw Joe . I like when I get some laughs from the video . Thanks
Just a random bull of a saw shows up, wow! Nice work Joe Johnson👍🏻
I'd buy one of em if Joe J. had an extry laying around somewhere
So let us know if Johnson is available to repair 200’s got a small collection I’d like to have couple of em rebuilt
sorry you ever forgot who makes the best trim saw 200T moded or not is the best trim saw
That shirt at the end says it all.
Man I don't know how to say it other than just saying it, agape. You are an inspiration to the treeple out there and a greater influencer than you may ever know. Keep up the good work that is put before you . Glad that you finally got a Lazer pointer back in yer hands, that extra weight is worth it in the gold
Joe is the fuckin man, damn good dude and builds a mean saw
Subs going up fast. It took you years to gain the first 50k, now look, they're multiplying fast!
".....but there's plenty of room" well ya, for you! Excelent work brother :{)
I just recently bought a monkey beaver 1.0 with a water pouch thank you August for the amazing product.I love watching your videos hope to meet you someday.

Hey John. Perhaps you convert your answer to English? Our automatic translation fails for your text.
Okay Martin. I will write through a translator. But my native language is Russian and the translation is not always the literal sense of what was said. For that, I can read your comments almost without a translator, but I can’t write the text in English yet😁
That saw is spot on! He is no average Joe 😁 That hinge cut is another tool that will make my life easier. Thanks August! Stay safe brother 👊
Looking good......sounding good!😎😎
Holycrap that saw runs nice
Monkey Beaver should design a nice cinching anchor for DRT thats all their own.
That saw was rippin fs! Love the shirt at the end 👌🤘🤘🤘
No speedlining this one? I'm mildly disappointed but otherwise completely intrigued! Thanks August!
Ive ran so many top handle saws, and nothing, absolutely nothing comes close to a well build 200T. Yes, 201 like robert ck has is freaking amazing, but thats a build saw.
The saw of all saws! It’s just meant to gooo! 🤘🏻 happy to see your feeling better august.
I wish we had tall trees like that FL. Looks like a great time
The 200T.
Prepare to bask in its magnificence.
