Thanks for all the great feedback everyone, I really do appreciate it.
I don't try to hide the "ugly" work(well maybe some
)I do 'cause I want to hear from
you guys on what I need to do or not do to improve and work safer.
I'm taking everything said in a good way and I really mean it when I say I appreciate all your comments.
I'll do my best to remember all of it but I'm sure I'll forget some.
As I was putting the video together I spotted some of the things you already pointed out and knew
there would be comments. It's kinda hard to explain but, when I'm working in a tree I've got a "plan"
that I'm trying to follow based on what I know. There have been many times when I've been making a
cut or rigging a limb "based on what I know" and I'll stop to double check what I'm doing and see that
it's not really the right/safe way to do it and I'll change what I'm doing to make it safer/more efficient.
And then there are many times when I have a "plan" on how I want to do it and I don't stop to take a look
until it's too late and I've already committed to it and have to finish it off, safe or not.
And then of course there are quite a lot of times when I'm not sure what I'm doing.....
I've found the best way I learn is to see it done, unfortunately I don't know anyone that I can work
with or watch work. Watching videos is good, but very rarely do people post the entire process of setting
their rigging and making the cuts.
And you're right, I should've rigged those pieces smaller, I realized it after I had "committed" to them.....
I'm hungry to learn more because I have a passion for this work, not to mention it's helping pay the bills.....
Thanks again.
