After getting an accepted quote for this job another tree care company called us and absolutely freaked out on us saying that we underbid him by more than 50%! After completing the job we easily made our man-hours on the job. Ho many hours would you bid this 75 inch diameter storm-damaged silver maple? Oh halfway through the video the squirrels show up LOL!

 
Go ahead and give us the juicy details. We all want to know price? How about 45 man hrs!Did you factor in machine hrs aswell in your quote. There had to be at least 15-20 various machine hrs aswell? Big job!

Segway because of the SPAM content of this thread, but this reminds me of times related to another current thread about hotshot wild land fire. When I was on fire crew, our food bags/boxes always contained spam and powdered Gatorade. If you crack the top of the spam and pour Gatorade powder in then set on the fire it created deliciousness (at least it seemed that way at the time). Do keep in mind that I spent my youngest years in Hawaii where Spam is part of day to day life.
 
When Hamm posted their first video here someone left some very thoughtful feedback about who the audience is for this. I still don’t understand whether they are making this content for colleagues, enthusiasts, or homeowners. I was on a road trip yesterday in the back seat otherwise I would never have taken the time to watch this, and I think this identity crisis is still very prevelant.

Not to mention this style of posting videos and avoiding the discussion still peeves me and is reads as arrogant and self serving.

Don't click on the links to watch the video. Regardless of how bad content is, YouTubers get paid by advertisers based on the number of clicks... There are several "tree people" whose videos I want watch because I'm not convinced they're there to help anybody except themselves. By no means is that all inclusive... There are others that are great, I learn a lot, and am very glad they toast what they do.

I cannot comment about the usefulness of the OP... I have not watched that based on comments here... So if you keep that kids appreciated!

Is potted meat food product a step below genuine potted meat? When the name has to state that it's a food product, I get scared.

"Dang it honey, you bought potted meat food product. I told you I needed potted meat wallboard compound!"
